Ed Morrissey at Hot Air passed along some encouraging news today from the ratings, under the heading "Implosion: MSNBC Still Cratering With New Line-Up -- And CNN's Not Far Behind."

On Sunday, Speaker Mike Johnson gave CBS’s Margaret Brennan what many considered to be a much-needed education on the House’s Big Beautiful Bill’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program reforms. However, on Thursday, PolitiFact’s Loreben Tuquero asserted that it was Johnson who was the “false” one, although she had to torch a straw man to do so.

Morning Joe regular Pablo Torre, a Harvard alum who comments on sports and politics, denies that Harvard is a "hotbed of liberalism." His one bit of evidence in support of his claim is that the basic economics course at Harvard USED to be taught by an economic adviser to President Reagan. Torre ignores studies like the 2022 one revealing that "more than 80 percent of Harvard faculty…

The Friday editions of ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today both employed Harvard Professor and former U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns to attack the Trump administration’s move to “aggressively” curtail student visas to Chinese nationals. As Burns was both networks’ sole expert, much critical information about the administration's concerns was noticably missing…

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel announced himself on Thursday as not be a fan of President Trump’s lawsuit against 60 Minutes, but whatever one thinks of the suit’s legal merits, Kimmel’s claim that the network did not deceptively edit the interview with Kamala Harris to make her look better fell flat.

POLL: What Was the Worst Media Take of the Week?

CBS News thinks the crown jewel of its news division is 60 Minutes, the alleged gold standard of investigative journalism on television. But when it comes to politics, their coverage isn’t just slanted. It’s more like a wrecked bus laying on its side, wheels spinning in the air. But they consider themselves the embodiment of "independence."

In what appears to be a return to 2017 form, the media have reverted to desperately searching for Resistance figureheads in opposition to President Donald Trump that they may elevate and then desperately cling to. Case in point, ABC’s recent coverage of Harvard University.

On Tuesday night, Chris Hayes found himself more closely resembling a conspiracy theorist than a journalist during his show, All In with Chris Hayes. Hayes, leaving out critical context around the federal decision to stop government funding from Harvard University, compared Trump to a communist Apparatchik, that is, someone who was blindly devoted to political ideologies–…

Fake Republican Ana Navarro once again made a fool out of herself on ABC’s The View. During Thursday’s episode she lost it over a new “nickname” given to President Trump by leftists in the financial industry: TACO or Trump always chickens out. This left her howling with laughter and shouting “taco” like she was a broken record.

Jake Tapper and his ilk owe all of us an explanation for why, from 2017 through 2020, they were so intensely concerned about President Trump’s health that they managed to incorrectly diagnose him with dementia, early-onset Alzheimer’s, profound mental illness, and even heart disease.

On Wednesday night, MSNBC’s All In ran a story about an ill 4-year-old named Sofia, who was supposedly being heartlessly forced out of the country by the Trump administration without recourse. The suffering of this child was deeply saddening, but the story omitted extremely key information. MSNBC was using this child's brutal and agonizing health complications with Short Bowel…

PolitiFact threw another "False" flag on their mountain of 1,095 Donald Trump "fact checks" on Wednesday. The dispute was whether Harvard gave the Department of Homeland Security the information they requested on their foreign students. They found an expert in Georgia immigration lawyer Charles Kuck, who (surprise) is a serious donor to Democrats, including Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, Stacey…

CNN and PBS host Christiane Amanpour stopped by the Harvard Kennedy School on Wednesday to deliver what was billed as a commencement address, but was really just a plea for the graduates to find the courage to fight back against nameless forces—but understood to be President Trump and people who support him—who are pushing America into a 1984 or Mussolinian state of affairs.
