CBS Evening News

Another day, another pompous and insanely over-the-top editorial to close out CBS Evening News Plus. This time, John Dickerson blesses us with his grandes pensées on Secretary of War Pete Hegseth’s convocation of his top generals, admirals, and senior enlisted advisers for what has been colloquially termed a “Come to Pete” meeting.

Despite the only group standing in the way of averting a government shutdown at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Wednesday are Senate Democrats, ABC, CBS, and NBC have all taken their side in demanding a permanent extension of ObamaCare subsides that were meant to be temporary during the pandemic (along with a whole host of other goodies, including refunding PBS and NPR). Shutdowns have long been something…

CBS Evening News host Maurice DuBois and chief Washington analyst Robert Costa collectively mourned on Friday that there does not appear to be any internal White House dissent over the decision to indict former FBI Director James Comey. For Costa in particular, the mood could be described as “shatter norms and carry on.”

Since Wednesday’s deadly attack on a Dallas, Texas Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) facility by an anti-ICE loon, ABC, CBS, and NBC followed an identical pattern from their coverage of Charlie Kirk’s assassination by cowardly refusing to tie the incendiary rhetoric from their own side about the Trump administration and its supporters to crazies taking matters into their own hands. …

There’s no other way to say it: A new report shows the Trump economy has continued to defy expectations, but you wouldn’t know any of this watching the ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts.

The legacy media have cast themselves as staunch defenders of the First Amendment as they circle the wagons for Regime comic Jimmy Kimmel. However, they are nowhere to be seen as Google admits to censorship of conservatives under pressure from the Biden White House.

The legacy media are content to further self-debase by reducing themselves to heralds of the triumphant return of Free Speech Martyr Jimmy Kimmel to late-night television. In so doing, they are turning their focus on the holdout affiliate groups still refusing to air Kimmel unless he can show proof of human decency.

The legacy newscasts decided that Disney/ABC’s restoration of Jimmy Kimmel Live! would sit at the top of the A-block- top story on ABC and NBC, and second story on CBS. In many ways, this editorial decision exemplifies both the media’s disconnect from the public they claim to serve, and the insular circling of the wagons for one of their own under duress.

ABC, CBS, and NBC were still enraged on Friday morning and evening over unfunny late-night host Jimmy Kimmel’s indefinite suspension from ABC over his vile remarks Monday spreading a conspiracy theory about the Charlie Kirk assassination. And once again, they fiddled with a conspiracy theory of their own that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), local TV conglomerates, and the Trump…

Remember that blowout September 2024 jobs report the broadcast networks slobbered over in October just before the presidential election? Well, the government admitted last week to a big whoopsie in configuring the jobs numbers. Sure enough, ABC CBS and NBC were clearly not as keen on letting viewers know they just mindlessly swallowed up what the Biden administration spit out for political…

Sensing an opportunity for exploitation Thursday night, the liberal broadcast networks went full bore with lying to their audience about why late night “comedian” Jimmy Kimmel was put in timeout by Disney/ABC, choosing to instead claim the suspension was orchestrated by the Trump administration. CBS Evening News, NBC Nightly News, and even ABC’s World News Tonight…

It’s been a week since Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was assassinated by a trans-adjacent (allegedly) leftist with a grudge. Despite a press conference by the local prosecutor with extensive details, the legacy newscasts avoided any discussion of the shooter’s motive.  

The legacy media are fighting the motive narrative battle with the intensity of the last Japanese soldier in the Philippine jungles after the end of World War II. CBS, in particular, is insisting on a lack of motive in the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

Along with celebrating older Americans pretending it’s the 1960s all over again by becoming hooked on marijuana and lamenting the Supreme Court gave President Trump the green light to continue mass deportation raids in cities like Los Angeles, Monday’s CBS Evening News provided yet another example of the liberal bias for new ownership to fix. The topic? A possible incoming shortage…
