ABC World News Tonight opened their newscast by stoking recession fears among their viewership. This, just one day after being the only network evening newscast not to report on the Consumer Price Index (CPI), a key indicator for inflation, coming in below expectations.

In desperate need of air cover, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today (to a lesser extent) rush to the side of Democrats as they remain strongly opposed to a Republican-crafted continuing resolution to keep the government open. Before Senate Democrats caved to a cloture vote, they looked to pin a possible government shutdown Friday night on the GOP for refusing to write…

Early Thursday morning, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin noticed that CNN climate correspondent spread fake news the previous evening on The Source with Kaitlan Collins when he accused the administration of being in such a hurry to repeal regulations they incompetently put out press releases with typos and placeholders in the headlines. In reality, Weir couldn’t tell the difference…

On CNN This Morning, host Audie Cornish plays a clip of an Iowa soybean farmer calling tariffs a "pissing match." The p-word is muted but it is clear what he said. A bit later, when a panelist begins a factual description of the effects of tariffs, Cornish eventually cuts him off, saying: "the farmer gave us a very, like, people understand what tariffs are now. Yeah. Right?"

NBC’s Late Night and CBS’s The Late Show hosts Seth Meyers and Stephen Colbert were greatly displeased on their Wednesday shows that the Trump Administration is seeking to deport pro-Hamas Columbia University protest leader Mahmoud Khalil. As they tell it, Khalil is not the leader of an illegal protest movement that occupied school property and distributed pro-terrorist…

On Morning Joe, Mika Brzezinski describes as "disastrous" the Oval Office meeting among Trump, Vance, and Zelensky. But Morning Joe regular Elisabeth Bumiller of the New York Times admits though "hard to watch," it was a "pressure tactic that got us somewhere." Mika responds with a curt "all right" and quickly moves on.

There are many noticeable differences between the first and second Trump administrations, but some things remain constant throughout. Then and now, the major network newscasts are reluctant to report any good economic news to emerge from the Trump administration, in this case: the Consumer Price Index coming in lower than expected.

The blowhards at MSNBC’s Morning Joe should realize that continuing to shoot lies through their whitened tooth implants on the air about Elon Musk doesn’t make them any more true. What’s worse is that they don’t even attempt to be clever about it.

Democrat strategist James Carville advises his party to simply wait for President Donald Trump to fail: “I’m telling the Democrats, just sit there, play possum. Let them go, let them go, let them go. Poll numbers have declined, and the collapse is already underway. ... Just let the ball come to you. We don’t need to be aggressive now.”

On Tuesday’s installment of the White House press briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt praised the changes owner Jeff Bezos is making at The Washington Post, gave the “new media” seat to Saagar Enjeti of Breaking Points, and faced tough questions from across the spectrum on the economy from Fox News, CNN, Politico, and even the Associated Press.

PBS News Hour White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez joined the Wednesday edition of CNN’s Inside Politics to freak out about President Donald Trump’s plans to close, or at least downsize, the Department of Education. As Barron-Lopez tells it, Trump is trying to privatize public education, and shuttering the department will start a domino effect that will lead states to…

Ham-fisted Nazi analogies and dumb post-Soviet oracles—these are a few of Stephen Colbert’s favorite things. On Tuesday’s edition of The Late Show on CBS, Colbert welcomed actor Nathan Lane and New York Times columnist Ezra Klein to his show to lament the Trump Administration where it was warned that the Trump era will feature pro-Nazi versions of The Sound of Music …

Having seemingly run out of things killed by DOGE to report on, it appears that the CBS Evening News have expanded this favorite doom genre of news reporting. This new subgenre deals with the adverse reactions to tariffs across society, with tonight’s focus on…wedding dresses.

From watching the White House wrapup that aired on ABC World News Tonight, reasonable individuals can arrive at the conclusion that ABC is attempting to incite violence or some other adverse action against Tesla/SpaceX founder Elon Musk.
