Donald Trump

After Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger’s rebuttal speech to President Trump’s State of the Union address, PBS News Hour’s foreign policy reporter Nick Schifrin nitpicked President Trump’s claim about the carnage in Iran. There’s an ideological point to casting doubt on the estimated number of peaceful protesters killed by the Iranian regime, given that Trump may be building up U.S. forces in…

On Tuesday afternoon, MS NOW made the latest comparison of President Donald Trump to Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler as afternoon host Katy Tur made an analogy between Jews who support Trump and wealthy Jews in Vienna who did not take Hitler seriously in the 1930s.

It’s been proven that CNN will never give President Donald Trump an inch on a “strong” economy without taking logic and twisting it into such an amorphous pretzel to take nonsensical jabs at his record anyway.

James Carville, longtime Democrat strategist, wrote a New York Times opinion piece on Jan. 2, 2025, days before Donald Trump’s triumphant return to the White House. Carville said: “We lost for one very simple reason: It was, it is, and it always will be the economy, stupid. We have to begin 2025 with that truth as our political north star and not get distracted by anything else.”

NBC’s Seth Meyers reacted on Late Night to President Trump’s State of the Union address on Wednesday by attacking him for condemning Democrats for not standing up and applauding and for allegedly trying to “co-opt” Team USA's men's hockey gold medal for himself. In both cases, Meyers left out some crucial context.

The media hall monitors are fond of berating the Bari Weiss-run CBS Evening News as Trump-friendly or “MAGA-coded.” So far, the network has quite easily managed to beat those allegations. Case in point: the former Tiffany network has decided to wade into the fake controversy surrounding the U.S. men’s and women’s Olympic hockey teams.

Despite having been painted a picture by the liberal media that the new CBS News would become something akin to MAGA TV, it has been anything but. Wednesday’s CBS Mornings reacted with negative narratives about President Trump’s “contentious” 2026 State of the Union speech, “clash[ing] with Democrats” and painting a supposedly dour economy as strong.

The State of the Union is typically an eye-opening exhibit of how dramatically slanted our "independent fact-checkers" are. An overview of the most prominent traditional national media sites reveals a total of 123 "fact checks" on the president to four for Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D-Va.). One might say that Trump spoke much longer, but all four of Spanberger's evaluated claims were ruled as…

The Cackling Coven of ABC’s The View spent the opening segment of Wednesday’s episode raging at President Trump’s State of the Union address the previous night. They decried how the prominent speaking position allowed for an “unfair dynamic” where Trump could be heard clearly, while Democrats only sounded… well, “crazy.” They also denounced the presence of the U.S. Men’s Olympic Hockey Team…

The Associated Press’s Melissa Goldin and Calvin Woodward were given the task of fact-checking President Trump’s Tuesday State of the Union address and, in some of their checks, they were so pedantic it bordered on self-parody.

As we’ve documented recently at NewsBusters, CBS’s flagship newscasts have shown little wholesale changes under editor-in-chief Bari Weiss that we both initially saw and as had been reported. Instead, it’s been more of the same liberal drivel. But ironically, there have been a few moments at NBC where it’s come across as this was the network she actually leads and such was the case on…

Joe Scarborough has reacted to President Trump’s State of the Union with profanity — and by questioning his sanity. After a sweeping denunciation of Trump’s remarks on immigration, inflation, and elections, Joe Scarborough declared the speech “extraordinary… for many reasons,” adding: "He did sh-- that no sane president would ever do. It was really, really crazy to be watching that in a State…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert hosted his last-ever live edition of The Late Show in the early hours of the morning on Wednesday as he reacted to President Trump’s State of the Union address, which he labeled “dark.”

In reacting Wednesday to President Trump’s 2026 State of the Union address, ABC’s Good Morning America followed its tiresome pattern of being all Trump hate, all the time by repeating an absurd 11 times the President’s grappling with negative polling and went out to deliver a speech that consisted of “brutally harsh” “partisan attacks” and irresponsibly “paint[ed] a rosy picture” of the…
