The “Big Three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC were fired up Monday morning with coverage of Tuesday’s Wisconsin state Supreme Court election and predictably were apoplectic over Elon Musk’s tens of millions of dollars spent to help elect conservative Brad Schimel, but only CBS cared to mention liberal Susan Crawford has her own billionaire donors in Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker (D) and…

For those that haven’t seen the clips floating out on social media, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) still made time Tuesday for CBS Mornings despite having largely cancelled the rest of the book tour for his publication on anti-Semitism due to alleged security concerns, but the real reason was clear in this 12-minute-plus CBS sit-down as the three co-hosts voiced the left’…

In the second hour of Monday’s CBS Mornings, the crew hawked a new book edited by longtime liberal author Michael Lewis based in part on a series of Washington Post stories about federal workers and lamented “truly inspiring work” is being axed by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and too many refuse to see “who these people are, and they’re being treated kind of…

On Friday morning, the “Big Three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC giddily promoted Thursday’s attempted town hall by western North Carolina GOP Congressman Chuck Edwards that was derailed by “democracy in action” and “frustration” from “heated” voters who are “very loudly and very clearly” unhappy with the Trump administration. This was passed off as organic instead of wholly partisan in which…

Through Thursday morning, CBS has been the only major broadcast network (ABC, CBS, and NBC) to mention on its flagship morning or evening newscasts this week marked five years since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic in the United States and the life-altering lockdowns with its ramifications still playing out in American life. On Tuesday’s CBS Mornings and CBS Mornings Plus,…

The liberal media had a predictably sour reaction to President Trump’s speech to Congress. Yet one year ago, these same networks used Joe Biden’s 2024 State of the Union speech to dishonestly proclaim the obviously faltering 81-year-old was brimming with energy and ready for a second term.

Three days after CBS Mornings Plus shacked up with the rest of the liberal media’s manufactured narrative about the country either in the midst of or about to enter “a constitutional crisis,” CBS’s longtime Supreme Court correspondent Jan Crawford showed up on Friday’s show to burst the bubble of liberals that we are not, in fact, in a state of chaos.

On Monday, ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today saw no reason amid their latest hyperventilating about President Trump fulfilling a campaign promise of shrinking the size of government — and that doing so has triggered “a constitutional crisis” — to note a CBS poll showing his approval at a record 53 percent.

On Wednesday’s CBS Mornings and CBS Mornings Plus, there was a sense of anger, disbelief, and shock at President Trump’s bombshell declaration Tuesday that the U.S. would oversee the rebuilding of the Gaza Strip. Between interviews with White House National Security Adviser Michael Waltz and then former Obama and Biden official Samantha Vinograd, CBS suggested U.S. involvement was not…

The 2028 Democratic presidential primary has arguablky been underway since early 2020 when Joe Biden sealed the nomination, so it’s only natural likely candidates have started making national TV appearances to serve as Democrat Party leaders since they were thrashed in November. On Monday’s CBS Mornings, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer received a rhetorical massage masquerading as…

Thursday’s CBS Mornings featured a welcome profile by co-host Tony Dokoupil on why President-Elect Trump dominated the male vote in the 2024 presidential campaign. Dokoupil did nothing to lampoon or even mock men of all stripes who flocked to Trump for a variety of reasons, including feelings of abandonment by the left and the 21^st century economy.…

On Thursday morning and after some cockamamie, tone-deaf reactions Wednesday night to President Biden’s farewell address, the major broadcast networks chose to double down with empty stenography for power with one network going to nonsensical links suggesting Biden could one day be compared to President George Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lyndon Johnson as one of the country’s…

On Monday and Tuesday, CBS, CNN, and MSNBC each dedicated a segment to the self-described geopolitical consultant firm Eurasia Group’s annual release of its Top Risks for the coming year. Unsurprisingly, the list was dominated by anti-Trump fearmongering, ranging from his aversion to globalist organizations (first) to a cartoonish view of his presidency being one of creeping authoritarianism (…

With the liberal media likely eager to reflect on the last inauguration ahead of this current one they are bound to loathe, author, poet, and progressive activist Amanda Gorman joined Tuesday’s CBS Mornings to look back on her performance in 2021 for President Biden’s inaugration and promote her new children's book Girls on the Rise, which she hopes will resonate with…
