CNN and Sky News have maintained their claims that their journalists in Iran had complete editorial control over where and what they covered. They insisted they weren’t guided or followed by a minder, but they did hire translators. But on Thursday’s Morning Joe, PBS Frontline journalist and producer Sebastian Walker noted that when he was in Iran last year, the “government…

To repeat what Americans have heard a lot recently, our Social Security system is in very bad shape. Per the most recent report, in 2025, of the Social Security and Medicare board of trustees, Social Security is capable of paying out the entirety of promised benefits through 2033. After that, there is only capability of paying out 77% of promised benefits. That’s seven years from now.

Former CBS reporter Scott MacFarlane had an unintentionally funny defense of himself as he started his new job with the liberals at MeidasTouch. According to MacFarlane, joining the liberal outlet is actually a win for “independent journalism,"…

After initial reports were dismissed by Team Trump as "fake news" (or perhaps premature news), Politico's Daniel Lippman reports comedian and HBO Real Time host Bill Maher will receive the Mark Twain Prize from the Trump-Kennedy Center prize in June in a show made for Netflix in one of the center's last public events before it shuts down for a planned two-year renovation.

MRC analysts reviewed the ABC, CBS, NBC evening and morning news shows from February 11 (when the SAVE America Act passed the House) to the morning of March 26 and found the broadcast networks have mostly hidden any discussion of the bill, spending a tiny 247 seconds (or 4 minutes, 7 seconds) on it.

Comedy Central’s Jon Stewart welcomed former spokesman for former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Alastair Campbell, to Wednesday’s episode of The Weekly Show podcast to discuss the war in Iran. At one point, Stewart would allege that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth gets a perverse sense of sexual satisfaction from the violence he is able to inflict on other people as a result of…

As America’s semiquincentennial rolls around, is the Trump Administration whitewashing the evils of America’s history? The PBS News Hour thinks so. On their “Politics Monday” segment with pollster Amy Walter and NPR’s Tamara Keith, co-host Geoff Bennett asked his guests about the White House installing a statute of Christopher Columbus on the grounds.

Tuesday’s Politico Playbook hyped up a campaign event for Michigan Senate candidate Adul El-Sayed with the far-left Twitch streamer Hasan Piker, who is best known for his anti-American comments, statements that said the US deserved 9/11, and shocking his dog Kaya live on stream.

MRC Watchdogs churn out breaking news on a daily basis. Don't miss Today's Highlights, where you can keep up with the top MRC content, whether it's the latest study on media bias, a glaring omission from the elitist media, or how the Big Tech companies are serving up the same leftist spin as the media. 

There was once upon a time when the news media pretended to care about congressional ethics, and made an effort to cover alleged violations of the public trust. Nowadays, the Elitist Media appear to deploy an obvious double standard when covering these.

Politicians say they can “make the economy work better.” I once believed they could. But years of reporting taught me that politicians’ attempts to “fix” the economy usually make things worse. Twenty years ago, Republicans and Democrats helped create the Great Recession by telling government-backed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to buy more peoples’ mortgages because, as President George W. Bush…

Since the release of the first batch of Epstein-related files in late 2025, hardly a thing has happened in American politics that some member of the press hasn’t deemed a Trump-engineered “distraction” from Epstein.

The two cast members of ABC’s The View old enough to have protested American veterans returning from Vietnam, moderator Whoopi Goldberg (70) and Joy Behar (83) tapped into that anti-military hatred during Wednesday’s episode. While the latter was adamant that the U.S. military had “accomplished” nothing in Iran, the former suggested all they were doing was dying and lectured Secretary…

Actor Vince Vaughn joined Tuesday’s episode of the This Past Weekend with Theo Von podcast, where the conversation eventually shifted to the state of comedy and the late night comedy shows in particular. According to Vaughn, the late night shows have gone downhill because they’ve become “agenda-based” and feel like you’re being forced to sit in a class you do not want to take or next…
