On Friday's episode of In The Arena with Kasie Hunt, they were discussing Trump's executive order to defund NPR and PBS alongside his questioning of federal funding for Harvard with its serious antisemitism problem. New York Times podcaster Lulu Garcia-Navarro, who spent 17 years at NPR, had a theory about Trump -- he just hates "independence," anything that threatens his…

Former scandal-plagued NPR CEO Vivian Schiller joined CNN News Central guest host Erica Hill on Friday to freak out over President Donald Trump’s Thursday executive order that ceased taxpayer money from going to NPR and PBS. According to Schiller, the move is just another example of Trump “attacking a free press” for reporting on things he does not like.

Former Republican congressman-turned-Democrat-endorsing CNN talking head Adam Kinzinger joined former Today co-host and CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric on her Next Question podcast to discuss President Donald Trump. During their interview, Kinzinger would lob off Nazi comparisons, bizarre hypotheticals, and long for a version of the pre-Trump good old days that…

Late Thursday night, President Trump moved via executive order to defund far-left networks National Public Radio (NPR) and PBS on the TV side, ordering the Corporation for Public Broadcasting cease direct and indirect taxpayer funding in addition to government agencies ceasing federal grants. A move decades in the making, ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS Mornings were…

Over the next couple of years, the late night comedy shows will become a stomping ground for 2028 Democratic presidential hopefuls and on Thursday, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel helped kick start that process by welcoming Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker to the show. Together the two would implicitly accuse Republicans of racism by claiming they “know full well” Abraham Lincoln would be a Democrat today and…

Tonight’s CBS Evening News gave viewers something beyond the normal network fare: garden-variety Malthusianism couched in equal parts brave self-determination and concern for others. And it was quite disconcerting to view.

On Tuesday afternoon, CNN climate correspondent Bill Weir declared that the Donald Trump administration is in an "all-out assault on science," and compared global warming to a burning theater that the administration is forcing people to stay inside.

Cornish kicked off today's CNN This Morning by slyly slipping in an analogy between President Trump and Marie Antoinette--the French queen who was beheaded by the guillotine. Commenting on Trump's statement that, given the new tariffs, "maybe the children will have two dolls instead of 30 dolls, Cornish said: "Hey: Let them buy fewer dolls!" That was an echo of the phrase attributed to Marie…

President Donald Trump’s approval declined after he announced broad tariffs not just on China but on trading partners who, in his opinion, take advantage of America with their tariffs on American goods. But how quickly those rooting for Trump’s failure forget the mood of the country during the Biden administration. In September 2024, NBC News wrote: “Two in 3 voters say the country is on the ‘…

On Thursday, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt held yet another unusual morning press briefing, but this time, her guest was Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller to provide barn-burning remarks on what the administration called President Trump’s first 100 days of “Restoring Common Sense.” Miller repeatedly took the liberal media — living in safe, wealthy confines — to task,…

With damning new evidence piling up in the case of deported MS-13 gangbanger Kilmar Abrego García and the media trapped defending his gang tattoos, there is a clear need for a new exemplar to promote against the perceived excesses of Trump immigration policy. Tonight, a new consensus poster boy may have emerged in Mohsen Mahdawi.

Former White House Press Secretary and current MSNBC host Jen Psaki joined CBS’s Stephen Colbert on The Late Show on Wednesday for three segments full of loathing President Trump and his “fire hose of dirty water” and “do-nothing Democrats” like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

At the 100-day mark in President Trump's second term, it's apparent once again that the evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC are organized to cover Trump as negatively as possible. A new NewsBusters study finds coverage of Trump has been 92 percent negative. Four years ago, Biden coverage was 59 percent positive. Rich Noyes explains the difference.

Public television marked President Trump’s first 100 days in office with a dose of fear and loathing Monday evening, courtesy of the PBS News Hour’s most liberal reporter Laura Barron-Lopez and he guest, hostile presidential historian Mark Updegrove.
