Today

With Wednesday’s Today (and ABC’s Good Morning America), an NBC flagship newscast covered a smear perpetuated by its own website that Democrats on the Senate Armed Services Committee have a sworn affidavit from secretary of defense pick Pete Hegseth’s former sister-in-law alleging he abused his second wife. The problem? Said ex-wife denied it.

With CBS Mornings freaking out about a number of matters related to Monday’s second inauguration of President Trump, the fervently anti-Trump partisans at ABC’s Good Morning America were apoplectic over the pardons of January 6 defendants to the point everything else was painted as either fringe or blurry.

During NBC’s recap of the week’s headlines on Saturday’s installment of Today, Joe Fryer hyped President Joe Biden’s “warning about the future” of an oligarchy under incoming President Donald Trump. However, Fryer, like his ABC and CBS network counterparts, ignored Biden’s Friday claim that he could amend the Constitution by simply issuing a declaration and posting it on social media…

On Thursday morning and after some cockamamie, tone-deaf reactions Wednesday night to President Biden’s farewell address, the major broadcast networks chose to double down with empty stenography for power with one network going to nonsensical links suggesting Biden could one day be compared to President George Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lyndon Johnson as one of the country’s…

The anchors of NBC’s Today spun themselves dizzy on Saturday as they tried to give credence to two separate liberal talking points. First, Laura Jarrett memory-holed the COVID lockdowns as she proclaimed President Joe Biden to be the best jobs president “in history” while Peter Alexander tried to tie the current Los Angeles wildfires to climate change.

Unfortunately for correspondent Aaron Gilchrist (and the crew), while ABC and CBS seemingly gave their political correspondents the day off, NBC’s Today made him trek out to the White House on a cold, post-Christmas Thursday morning to do a live shot to help them pearl clutch over President-elect Trump’s social media posts. They were left concerned by Trump’s Christmas foreign policy…

Now that the coast is (largely) clear, the liberal media and their Biden administration sources have increasingly come out of the woodwork to sound off on the President’s reportedly paper-thin mental fitness to have fully served the last four years. With 50 sources, Thursday’s Wall Street Journal item was devastating, but of no concern to ABC, CBS, and NBC on their flagship newscasts…

Over the weekend, news broke that President-elect Trump reached a settlement with ABC News and other linked entities in the defamation suit he brought against the network. As NewsBusters previously reported, the settlement went unmentioned during Stephanopoulos’s Sunday show, but further, it was not mentioned on any ABC News program through Monday’s Good Morning America. The…

Between Thursday night and Friday morning, ABC, CBS, and NBC used their flagship morning and evening newscasts to promote a disinformation campaign first launched by The Bulwark’s Sam Stein to use President-Elect Trump’s comments about grocery prices to argue he can’t and won’t improve the lives of struggling Americans.

On Wednesday and Thursday, ABC and NBC have omitted from their flagship morning and evening newscasts the Wednesday morning release of the November inflation report (known as the Consumer Price Index) that showed the Biden economy coming to an end on a sputtering note with a jump in prices of 2.7 percent from this time a year ago. With the Federal Reserve and economists having hoped inflation…

On Thursday, NBC's Today engaged in their annual ritual of announcing Time magazine's "Person of the Year," which was (zero surprise) Donald Trump. Time tends to defer to whoever won the presidential campaign as the year's most influential newsmaker, but they don't have to be happy about it. 

With Matt Gaetz having stepped down from attorney general consideration almost two weeks ago, the liberal media have turned their ire toward decorated Army veteran, best-selling military author, and former Fox News host Pete Hegseth. On Tuesday, they giddily passed along the “troubling” and “new allegations” against him, including those peddled by far-left smear merchant Jane Mayer (which they…

After having spent Monday morning and evening predictably defending and spinning President Joe Biden’s pardon of his scandal-ridden son Hunter, ABC News waved goodbye to this story all together on its flagship (and superficial) morning show Good Morning America. In contrast, CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today kept up the pressure, acknowledging the hullabaloo.

NBC’s Today smeared Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo on Monday, after he advised state municipal governments to stop adding fluoride to their drinking water. The segment painted Ladapo as a conspiracy kook for raising concerns about water fluoridation, while spending practically no time at all actually explaining what scientific basis he had for the move.
