ABC’s ‘Good Morning America’ SEETHES Over U.S. ‘Attack’ on Venezuela

January 5th, 2026 2:58 PM

On Monday, ABC’s Good Morning America stood alone among the broadcast networks in expressing uniform disgust to Saturday’s U.S. military actions in Venezuela to capture dictator Nicolas Maduro, painting a picture of chaos, “questions,” and “uncertainty” thanks to what they painted as illegal behavior by the Trump administration.

NewsBusters Podcast: Media Deny Trump Any 'Achievements' in 2025

January 2nd, 2026 9:35 AM

What were President Trump’s “achievements” in 2025? The media use and abuse of this term is an important measurement of bias.

Capitalism is measured by its results. Socialism is measured by intentions.…
