In the Trump Era, the late night comedy shows have been looking for any glimmer of light they can find, and they think they have found it in New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani. As the industry puts itself squarely in the middle of Mamdani Mania, it has done its part for the campaign by telling 95 percent of its mayoral election jokes about his rivals.

If you performed a simple Google search for the names of mainstream journalists and thought leaders, you would expect to get a link to their profile or a link to their website or news outlet. But Google has served up something far more sinister. 

Back in 2023, CNN’s Kaitlin Collins spent the entirety of a televised town hall contradicting and interrupting her guest, then-presidential candidate Donald Trump. By contrast, when Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Bernie Sanders joined Collins for a town hall on Wednesday night, she repeatedly permitted her guests to launch into talking point-laden stump speeches with no…

With all the media banter surrounding the ongoing government shutdown, ABC, CBS and PBS NewsHour seem to have conveniently forgotten that the national debt was even a major issue in this whole mess. Perhaps by emphasizing the multitrillion-dollar debt at all, the networks would be putting the Democrats in the hot seat for continuing to drag their feet on the negotiations.

Even as the Trump administration works to broker a peace deal between Israel and Gaza, Google once again revealed its utter disdain for America’s ally.  

On the April 16 PBS News Hour, as federal funding for both PBS and NPR was coming under heavy fire, co-PBS News Hour, co-anchor Amna Nawaz boasted that on her program, “we regularly invite and host conservative and Republican voices.” But is that true? Two new Media Research Center studies tracked and labeled every guest who appeared on the PBS News Hour and NPR’s…

ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS mostly censor Democrat Jay Jones text controversy.

Season 51 of NBC’s Saturday Night Live is set to premiere on October 4, but before that a new NewsBusters study looked back and found that 82 percent of Season 50’s Weekend Update jokes targeted conservatives and that 60 percent of its cold open political characters were conservatives or Republicans.

Apple and Microsoft joined Google on Wednesday in ignoring right-leaning news about the government shutdown. 

It is not looking good for Democrats after they refused to compromise on a deal to fund the government in the upcoming months, but as per usual, their favorite fixer, Google, is on it. 

Overall, the broadcast networks have spent only 5 minutes, 50 seconds TOTAL in four months (June 18 through to September 19), since the Biden mental decline hearings began. 

Remember that blowout September 2024 jobs report the broadcast networks slobbered over in October just before the presidential election? Well, the government admitted last week to a big whoopsie in configuring the jobs numbers. Sure enough, ABC CBS and NBC were clearly not as keen on letting viewers know they just mindlessly swallowed up what the Biden administration spit out for political…

Jimmy Kimmel’s suspension was his own fault. The ABC late night host’s mean-spirited commentary disguised as comedy drove conservatives away. Kimmel was completely unconcerned with this development, but his desire to turn his show into a liberal echo chamber might prove to be his downfall because when he claimed that conservatives were desperately trying to “characterize this kid who murdered…

Google is propping up the leftist media critiques of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s soon-to-be-released book, Listening to the Law: Reflections on the Court and Constitution.
