MRC Studies

CNN and MSNBC are pouncing on Twitter’s suspension of several liberal journalists, but those same cable news giants had about 15 times less interest in evidence of the same platform’s suspensions, blacklists and shadow banning aimed at conservatives when the so-called Twitter Files were released two weeks ago.

Leftist billionaire George Soros used his charities to build ties with hundreds of media organizations around the world involved in news and activist media. The journalism and activist media groups Soros supports mold public opinion on practically every continent and in many languages. They also insulate him from inquiry because reporters see him as an ally, not a target for investigation.

With the decisive Georgia run-off just days away, a new study by the Media Research Center finds the ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts have blasted GOP candidate Herschel Walker with 88 percent negative coverage, while Democratic incumbent Raphael Walker has enjoyed 71 percent positive press.

As the 2022 midterm elections approached, social media platforms aggressively championed political ideas benefiting left-wing candidates while silencing dissenting opinions that don’t fit the liberal worldview in the third quarter.

The late-night comedy scene has been reliably liberal for a long time, but the 2022 midterm election was a regular messaging machine for the Democrats, a NewsBusters study has revealed.

MRC analysts found that during the fall campaign, from Labor Day through the Monday night before Election Day, liberal guests outnumbered conservative guests 46 to 0.

A new MRC study of midterm election coverage on ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts finds Republicans are being walloped with 87% negative coverage while the networks' agenda for these stories — GOP candidate controversies, abortion rights and the danger of “election deniers” — perfectly match the topmost items in Democrats’ campaign playbook.

Big Tech in recent years has consistently discriminated against conservatives and independent thinkers by censoring them online. This has affected everyone from the former president of the United States to everyday men and women.

On Thursday ahead of the first primetime hearing of the House Select Committee hearing on January 6 (which could be described as Nancy Pelosi's third run at impeaching Donald Trump), the morning broadcast network news programs showed total devotion to the cause of their fellow leftists by spending over three times more airtime on January 6 than the attempted assassination by a disturbed…

All three broadcast networks in the fall of 2021 smeared border patrol agents as monsters who “whipped” illegal immigrants in “horrific,” “alarming” video. The footage showed a small number of agents on horseback trying to stop migrants from crossing the Rio Grande. 

The leftist newspaper owned by the second richest man in the world is obsessed with smearing his main competitor’s $43 billion Twitter takeover bid. It was willing to spend over 17,000 words to do it.

Twitter and Facebook worked in lockstep to restrict the flow of the Hunter Biden laptop story just before the 2020 presidential election. These platforms stifled the spread of that story at the same time that Big Media did, as MRC research found.

The Biden administration, desperate to hide the exploding crisis at the border, dumped the March crossing numbers late on Good Friday of Easter weekend. The dutiful drones on the network evening newscasts did their part in burying the bad news. 

Big Tech speech restrictions turned COVID-19 into the most pro-censorship environment in the U.S. at least since World War II. Media Research Center has found more than 800 examples of bans, deleted content, and other speech restrictions related to the virus, as well as to resultant vaccines masking and government policies.

As of January 20th, 2022, Joe Biden will have completed his first year as president. He will do so deeply unpopular, cratering to the mid 30s in two recent polls. Over the last year, the three network evening newscasts have done their best to hide policy disasters, such as Afghanistan and the border.
