Reliable Sources

Four years ago, author Michael Wolff came on Brian Stelter's Reliable Sources show and told him off. On Sunday, Stelter brought it back up: "You called me ridiculous." Stelter implied Wolff gained access to the Trump White House by bashing CNN. So Wolff unloaded on him again: "you are full of sanctimony....you are why one of the reasons people can't stand the media."

Sunday saw another step for mankind into space as billionaire Richard Branson and his company Virgin Galactic made their maiden space tourism voyage successfully. But CNN media correspondent Brian Stelter was channeling Ebenezer Scrooge during Sunday’s Reliable Sources as he bah humbugged the event and decried it as immoral because of climate change and the evils of capitalism.

In spite of the one-sided "climate crisis" mantra CNN and other liberal media have been peddling for years, CNN chief media correspondent and Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter devoted a segment on Sunday's show to fretting over whether journalists have done enough to promote hysteria on the issue.

On Sunday's Reliable Sources, CNN host Brian Stelter began with a poisonous rant on how Sean Hannity goes on poisonous rants. In other words, Stelter argued Hannity is too angry for television, while being every bit as angry. As usual, Stelter insisted Hannity attacking reporters as "stalkers" is authoritarian, in a rant in which he denounced Fox News as poison.

This the final NewBusters Podcast hosted by the night crew, Nick Fondacaro and Curtis Houck, Tim Graham is back Monday. The boys discuss Joe Rogan ripping Brian Stelter for a bootlicking interview he did with Jen Psaki. MRC Latino’s Jorge Bonilla walks us through the Univision clown show story he’s meticulously reported on.

During a very fiery segment on Thursday’s edition of The Joe Rogan Experience, the prolific podcaster along with progressive YouTuber Kyle Kulinski tore into CNN media journalist and Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter for his bootlicking interview with White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki a couple of weeks ago. The two also teed off on CNN in general for not acting like “real people…

For this Monday’s podcast, I kick things off by looking at CNN media reporter Brian Stelter going on tour to promote the paperback copy of his book. And he has some choice things to say about the people like me who called him out for his bootlicking interview with Press Secretary Jen Psaki the other weekend.

Welcome back, NewsBusters Podcast listeners! Yes, Tim Graham is continuing his much-deserved vacation to a far more beautiful section of America than The Swamp, so news analyst Nicholas Fondacaro and I will be co-hosting the next two weeks. On today’s show, we went after that putrid Brian Stelter-Jen Psaki interview, the vile rhetoric of MSNBC’s Joy Reid, and the latest happenings with Chris “…

As a feature during Sunday’s so-called “Reliable Sources,” CNN host Brian Stelter flaunted a pre-taped interview with White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki where he came off as a bootlicker for the Biden administrations. Stelter ultimately embarrassed himself with softball question after softball question that added up into a huff piece for the Press Secretary. He even invited her to…

It’s a feeling you get that echoes last fall, a sense that every new example of investigative journalism on the Hunter Biden laptop is going to be ignored by the “mainstream media.” The latest New York Post report is as ignored as the first. 

ABC News’ Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl gave the most mockable admission on this front, while on ABC’s political roundtable, This Week, yesterday. Karl struggled to admit Trump could actually be right about the lab leak theory, even as he justified the media mocking him for it a year ago.

In the latest NewsBusters Podcast we are sad to report that Chris Cuomo can’t be canned, Jeffrey Toobin is still in Zoom limbo. But CNN decided to terminate the contract of conservative contributor Rick Santorum. This delighted the censorious leftists on Twitter, who cannot stand a dissenting point of view on CNN. Brian Stelter was pleased “their voices were heard.”

During Sunday’s so-called “Reliable Sources,” CNN got to talk about their favorite topic (more so than former President Trump): themselves! Host Brian Stelter kicked off the show with a smorgasbord of stories that all had to with CNN, allowing them to wrap themselves in toxic narcissism. Asides from touting how CNN handled Chris Cuomo’s lack of journalistic ethics, Stelter led the…

On Sunday’s Reliable Sources, host Brian Stelter insisted the news business really needed a “democracy beat.” As if reporters don’t cover elections? No, he means reporters need to focus on how Republicans hate democracy and want to destroy it. The “objective media” sure knows how to create organizing principles.
