A lot of what we cover here at the Media Research Center consists of bias by omission. Specifically, when media outlets omit narrative-unfriendly stories in their entirety, or omit selected details from within those stories that are inconvenient to liberal narrative. Tonight on NBC Nightly News, we saw the exact opposite.

On CNN This Morning, Democrat strategist Antjuan Seawright says: "I don't think this is the posture of someone who's planning to leave the White House in three years because he's been very aggressive about his foreign policy approach and taking over countries."

The Trump Administration’s shockingly successful removal of Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro (captured and flown out of Caracas on Saturday morning to face trial for drug trafficking in New York City) was greeted with sulky attitudes in a mainstream press unwilling to credit Trump for a move that may well drastically improve the lives of millions of Venezuelans. The New York Times…

Many popular movies make a constructive point: If you work hard enough and push through tough times, you can achieve your dreams. In “The Pursuit of Happyness,” a struggling father tells his son, “Don’t let anyone tell you, you can’t do something.” The movie is a true story about a man who overcomes homelessness and gets his dream job. In “Rocky Balboa,” Rocky says, “It’s not about how hard…

Late Wednesday morning, the  U.S. military’s actions in Venezuela became old news and no longer the top national news story following a deadly, Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) officer-involved shooting in Minneapolis. The broadcast networks largely went wall-to-wall on their free, 24-hour streaming channels and, in some cases, the scorching hot takes were almost immediate. ABC News…

On Wednesday’s edition of The View, their inciting rhetoric reached a new dangerous level when moderator Whoopi Goldberg seemingly called on NATO to save America from President Trump and “GET HIM OUT!” She claimed America no longer had a government and demanded to know “where is everybody,” particularly NATO since they’ve helped us out before after 9/11. She also claimed Trump’s new…

On Wednesday, ABC’s Good Morning America fretted over the Trump administration’s decision to freeze $10 billion in federal child care funds to five blue states — including Tim Walz’s Minnesota — and inflict pain on “those who need the help the most” because “a conservative YouTuber” peddled “unverified allegations of fraud at day cares.” 

The Atlantic’s profile of California Gov. Gavin Newsom highlights his deep ties to the influential Getty oil family—mentioning “Getty” 22 times—while portraying him positively overall. The article explores how Newsom’s privileged background, business ventures, and political career are intertwined with Getty wealth, yet notes little criticism of this connection.

Former late night host Conan O’Brien is so close to getting it. During a Tuesday appearance at the Oxford Union, O’Brien criticized the type of comedian who has reduced themselves to saying nothing except “F Trump.” However, earlier in the event, O’Brien refused to apply this standard to the likes of ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel and CBS’s Stephen Colbert.

Even though PolitiFact editor Katie Sanders claimed on PBS on New Year's Eve that they were gut-checking their biases, in fact they were much rougher on the Republicans in 2025 than they were on Democrats -- 85 percent of their GOP checks were "Mostly False" or worse, and only 35 percent of the rarer Democrat fact checks were "Mostly False" or worse.

Comedy Central’s Ronny Chieng is The Daily Show’s first host-of-the-week for 2026, and he got off to a rough start on Tuesday when he declared that in the aftermath of the capture of Nicolas Maduro that the American people are being told that “they are now the Evil Empire.”

The British socialist newspaper The Guardian is upset that CBS News might become less radical, publishing an article provocatively titled “‘Blood in the water’: Bari Weiss’s chaotic first three months in charge of CBS News.”

In the immediate aftermath of the capture and extradition of strongman Nicolas Maduro and his wife, the situation on the ground in Venezuela has become increasingly  complicated. Only one network has accurately reported on the marauding pro-regime goon squad whose mission is to terrorize everyday citizens into compliance with the regime.

What, you may ask, has sent Oliver Darcy into hysterics again? The sanctimonious media scold is in full meltdown mode over the newly revamped CBS Evening News, publishing a hysterical review on his Status newsletter.
