What a difference a year makes. Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro and I compared the liberal media’s reactions to Joe Biden’s final State of the Union last year to Tuesday night’s address to Congress by President Trump and found a surprising change from fawnings (in the case of Ol’ Joe) to exhaustion. Sure, they hated Trump’s speech, ranging from his policies to his showmanship with ordinary…

They called it a "bombshell" on Tuesday, when Trump press secretary Karoline Leavitt announced they were going to take the credentialing and pooling powers away from the liberal press. Liberals screamed, conservatives cheered. New York Times reporter Peter Baker tweeted "this reminds me of how the Kremlin took over its own press pool and made sure that only compliant journalists were given…

With the liberal media’s post-election meltdown bullet train hitting breakneck speed, Senior Research Analyst Bill D’Agostino and I dove into the histrionics over this week’s personnel moves and the left refusing to consider its positions on illegal immigration in light of the voting public’s resounding support for President Trump’s deportation agenda.

With NewsBusters Executive editor Tim Graham away on the star-studded MRC Cruise this week, Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro and I began our week hosting the show by assessing on Monday where the liberal media stand nearly a week after their landslide election loss. We also dove into Fondacaro’s latest reporting on CNN’s legal woes which, believe it or not, has taken another wild turn.

Making his return Friday to Fox News @ Night, NewsBusters Managing Editor Curtis Houck sat on the show’s opening panel to analyze the state of the 2024 presidential race, noting the left’s “really desperate” to steer the election toward their preferred outcome by “shaming” minorities who’ve increasingly moved right.

The CBS veep debate wasn't bad as ABC, but the moderators quickly broke their own promise not to "fact check" the candidates (meaning the Republicans). After weeks of portraying Vance as a woman-hating, immigrant-baiting monster, Vance confounded CBS and other outlets by sticking to civil discourse and hitting soft notes for swing voters.

The foiled second assassination attempt on Donald Trump wasn't uniformly treated as a serious security problem. We found major networks blaming Trump's hot talk on migrants and pets for his own assassins. They blamed him for not toning rhetoric down -- the flagrantly hostile networks! Curtis Houck explains how Sunday unfolded.

Sitting in on Friday for host and NewsBusters Executive Editor Tim Graham, Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro and I dove into an absurd Los Angeles Times profile celebrating ABC’s debate co-moderator Linsey Davis for, along with co-moderator David Muir, interjecting for so-called fact-checks of Donald Trump. 

NewsBusters Managing Editor Curtis Houck both began and ended the week on the Fox News Channel’s Fox News @ Night with Friday’s installment featuring a lead-off panel discussion of President Biden’s ABC interview with Good Morning America co-host and former Clinton official George Stephanopoulos with the presidency in peril thanks to Biden’s cognitive decline.

NewsBusters Managing Editor Curtis Houck made his third appearance in as many weeks Monday on the Fox News Channel’s Fox News @ Night with Trace Gallagher and, alongside former Michigan Republican gubernatorial candidate Tudor Dixon, he blasted the liberal media for their wavering cowardice in the wake of President Biden’s disastrous debate performance.…

Making his second appearance in less than a week on the Fox News Channel’s Fox News @ Night, NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck ripped CNN for both its “arrogance” and “petulance” ahead of its Thursday night presidential debate as well as the legal trouble the network has found itself in with allegations of defamation (reported by our own Nick Fondacaro).

Late Tuesday on the Fox News Channel’s Fox News @ Night, NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck joined fill-in host Kevin Corke and fellow panelist Amber Duke of The Spectator to lay waste to the full-court press by the Biden administration to label raw, unedited videos illustrating President Biden’s cognitive decline as deep fakes, “cheap fakes”, and part of a far-right…

Pivoting back to the news of the week after our big interview with Mary Margaret Olohan on release day for her book on trangenderism, I was joined by Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro as poked fun at the ratings of CNN’s pitiful primetime lineup with some help from a new piece by our own Bill D’Agostino. Isn’t it amazing that there are more wild Bighorn Sheep and female forklift operators than…

The Democrats want to run for office on the issue of "Democracy," because they think the Republicans are somehow opposed.  They never sound stranger than when they warn that a re-elected Donald Trump will use the powers of government for revenge on his political enemies. They can't grasp the fact that many voters see a vast conspiracy of partisan prosecutors trying to convict and imprison…
