The "comedy" writers at NBC's Saturday Night Live have a raging hatred of President Trump. In the fake-news "Weekend Update" segment, fake anchor Michael Che made a joke about Trump being assassinated at the theater like Abraham Lincoln. The president's been shot once and they caught a second attempted assassination before it could happen. None of that curbs the "comedy."

For a segment ostensibly about the (eventually successful) search-and-rescue mission for an airman downed over Iran, Friday’s PBS News Hour platformed a source who less than two weeks ago went on a radical radio show to accuse Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth of enabling war crimes in Iran -- and who also snuck in his radical anti-war points into his PBS discussion about rescue.

The thing about watching coverage and analysis of the ongoing Iran operation is that you think it can’t possibly get stupider. And yet, each day’s stupidity is surpassed by that of the next. We are now at the phase of discussing Iran’s memes, a discussion that CNN’s Scott Jennings rightly mocked.

The Elitist Media continue to frame any effort at improving the nation’s election integrity as an attack against our democracy, or some variant thereof. The latest such frame comes via a notorious political operator who continues to masquerade as a “journalist.”

Much of the Elitist Media’s claim to credibility is premised on the access to knowledge and expertise, combined with reporting backstopped by rigorous editing and fact-checking. But it is often the case that this claim is exposed as hollow and outright false. Consider a recent exchange on NBC’s Meet the Press. 

Executive Editor Tim Graham and I welcome Daily Wire’s Isabel Brown to discuss how she managed to unintentionally trigger the Cackling Coven of ABC’s The View into an absolute meltdown by encouraging women to get married and have kids during a CPAC panel. Brown dismantles The View co-hosts and calls out their hypocrisy since most were happily married, and most had kids of…

NPR “public editor” Kelly McBride usually investigates complaints from coverage from die-hard NPR fans – meaning laments that NPR hasn’t been sufficiently leftist. But on April 2, one of the three complaints she answered was from the “unwoke.” She admitted that NPR didn't air voices of those targeted in a Michigan synagogue attack...after they went to the attempted killer's hometown in Lebanon…

If you are a frequent viewer of the left wing media, you never stop seeing a double standard in questioning, depending on the party. That difference was on display this past week on consecutive days on CNN News Central, as host Brianna Keilar pressed former Trump economic advisor Stephen Moore, but let Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) get away with outrageous claims about President Trump…

Former CBS reporter Scott MacFarlane joined Don Lemon on his Thursday Substack show to discuss leaving CBS for “independent” journalism and to continue to prove he might as well be living on another planet because he claimed the move will help him cover stories that are not currently being covered. By uncovered stories, MacFarlane did not mean super nerdy aspects of public policy or scientific…

It’s almost as if a mere handful of days barely goes by before yet another story about turmoil inside CBS runs somewhere in the liberal media landscape.

Despite ongoing criticism and economic concerns tied to the Middle East conflict, President Trump benefits from stronger-than-expected March job growth and a falling unemployment rate, giving him positive talking points amid public dissatisfaction, as noted with frustration by Politico’s Victoria Guida.

Friday’s roundtable on MS NOW’s The 11th Hour concluded by naming their MVPs of the week and there were some interesting selections. MS NOW’s online editor Anthony Fisher selected Judge Randolph Moss for his nonsensical ruling that said NPR and PBS are private companies and that President Trump’s defunding of them violated the First Amendment. Meanwhile, Independent Veterans of…

The trio of PBS News Hour anchor Amna Nawaz, The Atlantic staff writer David Brooks, and MS NOW host Jonathan Capehart appeared ready to pronounce defeat on Friday as they juxtaposed President Trump’s Iran speech earlier in the week to the day’s news that saw an American F-15 and Black Hawk helicopter go down in Iran.

On Thursday's Deadline: White House on MS NOW, Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) reacted to Pam Bondi’s firing with a coarse sendoff—“good riddance”—then proceeded to dismiss every potential replacement, all while being encouraged by host Alicia Menendez.
