Ya can’t make it up. Unless, of course, you’re The New York Times.

CNN’s Anderson Cooper welcomed Professor and former NAACP President Cornell William Brooks to his Friday show to help him set some straw men ablaze on President Donald Trump’s order for the Smithsonian to remove all “improper ideology” at its museums. The published order gave a clear definition of “improper ideology,” but the duo insisted on talking about something else so it could accuse him…

Ayo Edebiri isn’t a household name yet, but “The Bear” star got plenty of media coverage last month.

The cast of MSNBC’s Thursday installment of Deadline: White House was not a fan of the Trump Administration’s moves to deport Hamas supporters and anti-Semitic students. As they tell it, to do so is to bring the U.S. down to the moral level of “fascist regimes” and “countries behind the Iron Curtain.”

With Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart away, his former colleague Ruth Marcus stepped up to pinch-hit for him on Friday’s edition of PBS News Hour. At the end of the discussion with New York Times columnist David Brooks, Marcus claimed the reason she left the Post is because owner Jeff Bezos is trying “to limit dissent” at the paper despite…

After successfully winning a consequential defamation suit against CNN in January, Navy veteran Zachary Young had media-industry publication Puck News in his sights. According to a complaint filed in Bay County, Florida’s 14^th Judicial Circuit on Friday, and exclusively obtained by NewsBusters, Young was accusing left-leaning Puck News, via the reporting of “entertainment law expert…

NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo had had “enough” with the media’s obsession with the non-scandal of the Trump Cabinet Signal chat. Declaring “this is not a major scandal,” Cuomo knocked both sides for how they were and were not addressing it. He even called out the media for coveting “scalps” they would not collect from reporting on it.

In a 10-and-a-half-minute battle early Friday, CNBC’s Squawk Box co-host Joe Kernen dueled Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) over the Department of Government Efficiency’s (DOGE) work to address our unsustainable national debt and the left’s double standard in having refused to demand any accountability for Joe Biden’s deadly U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan and Secretary of Defense Lloyd…

New York Times columnist Ezra Klein’s quest to get his fellow liberals to ditch their love for bureaucratic red tape took him to Comedy Central’s The Weekly Show with Jon Stewart on Thursday, where he presented Stewart with the Biden Administration’s Byzantine 14-point plan on how to improve rural broadband service. After several minutes and multiple F-bombs, all Stewart…

Democratic Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) keeps doing newsworthy things — but, curiously, receiving basically no headlines. Despite Crockett’s busy week of calling for violence against Republican Senator Ted Cruz (TX), referring to wheelchair-bound Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) s “Governor Hot Wheels,” and allegedly assaulting a reporter, the Congresswoman has not been the subject of…

CBS’s Stephen Colbert tried to have it both ways on Thursday’s taping of The Late Show. On one hand he mocked Republicans for wanting to defund PBS out of concerns its documentaries were sexualizing children because what child watches PBS? On the other hand, he defended PBS against calls to defund it by citing all the children’s programming it does. Later in the show, Colbert would…

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

After a brief investigation, there was an arrest made in the firebombing of a Las Vegas Tesla service center. The evening network newscasts provided this arrest with coverage that could most charitably be described as “mixed”.

Tuesday night in his newsletter Status, former conservative reporter-turned-caustic progressive Oliver Darcy was in need of a fainting couch, some pearls to clutch, or a safe space over a supposed sign of the apocalypse in The Washington Post slowly backing away from its dumb slogan “Democracy Dies in Darkness.” To be clear, the Jeff Bezos-owned paper told him it won’t be retired…
