OMISSION: NBC Only Network to Report on ‘Devils of 42nd Street’ Attack
The legacy media appear to be stuck in this doom loop where they deliberately omit covering certain stories after embarrassing themselves fawning over the latest immigration poster boy du jour whether it’s “Maryland Dad” or pro-Hamas Columbia activist Mohsen Mahdawi.

NPR: Trump's Defunding Order an 'Affront to First Amendment Rights'
Both PBS and National Public Radio are cadging for change, even before President Trump’s executive order cutting taxpayer funds to PBS and NPR through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

Oliver Smears Homan, Declares He 'Can Truly Rot In Hell'

WHISTLEBLOWERS ARE COOL AGAIN: NBC News Fawns Over Miles Taylor
With the Second Trump Administration in full swing, dissent appears to make a comeback. Whistleblowing is once again back in fashion and whistleblowers are sainted public servants again, as opposed to pariahs during the Biden years. This much is clear from watching legal correspondent Laura Jarrett’s interview with former DHS Chief of Staff Miles Taylor, of “Anonymous” fame.

NewsBusters Podcast: Trump Takes On Hostile Media, Unlike Hidin' Biden
On Sunday, President Trump tangled with NBC's Kristen Welker, after he had verbal combat with ABC's Terry Moran and Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic.

MEET THE DEPRESSED: Trump Handles NBC’s Welker
“If it’s Sunday”, per the booming voice of the show’s announcer, “it’s Meet the Press.” Meet the Press has become synonymous, as is the case with the rest of the Sunday shows, with horribly biased coverage of conservatives generally, and of President Donald Trump specifically.

David Segal, a feature writer for the New York Times, interviewed German-born novelist Daniel Kehlmann, who “sees chilling parallels between what happened [under Hitler] and what has unfolded since Trump’s second inauguration.” The “Republican president = Hitler” smear has been a tired and offensive lazy liberal trope unworthy of appearing in a once-prestigious newspaper.
