NB Podcast: Reaction to Guilty Trump; Faux Sobriety, Boast, Want More
The last 24 hours have been like drinking water out of a firehose for us here at NewsBusters as the liberal media have been sounding off nearly non-stop on former President Trump being found guilty on 34 felony counts. Managing Editor Curtis Houck and I pour out the media reactions into their respective buckets ranging from gleeful to a hunger for harsher punishments to a faux-sobriety that…

NewsBusters Podcast: Deconstructing ‘Detrans’ W/ Mary Margaret Olohan
Detrans: True Stories of Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult is out now and hosts Nick Fondacaro and Curtis Houck speak with author Mary Margaret Olohan about what she’s discovered in speaking with several young women and men who had fallen victim to transgender ideology. They discuss the Orwellian doublespeak handed out in the form of style guides to the liberal media by groups like…

NewsBusters Podcast: Alito Flag Hubbub Shows Journos Need Real Hobbies
Alongside Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro for this Friday edition of the show, we dove into the wholly manufactured liberal media storyline (courtesy of The New York Times) of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito and flags outside his homes as a sign he’s ethically and morally compromised as a jurist and – gasp – a far-right extremist! Simply put, the obsession over this story and the…

NewsBusters Podcast: Can The Networks Report on Gold Bars Menendez?
The latest NewsBusters study found 573 minutes of Trump-trial coverage on ABC, CBS, and NBC, but less than eight minutes for the trial of Sen. Bob "Gold Bars" Menendez, Democrat of New Jersey. It's funny how GOP scandals always "overshadow" the Democrats when the networks create the "news."

NewsBusters Podcast: Eek, The Alito Bandito Flies the Flag Upside-Down
The New York Times considered it front-page material that leftist neighbors snitched on Supreme Court justice Sam Alito. A flag flew upside-down in his yard after January 6. The networks launched critical stories. The same Democrat rag published an assassination threat to Justice Kavanaugh two years ago on Page A-20.

NewsBusters Podcast: Lawrence O'Donnell's Cheesy Trump Trial Diaries
Part of the endless Trump trial coverage on MSNBC was The Last Word host Lawrence O'Donnell reading what sounded like bad diary entries on courtroom happenings. Porn star Stormy Daniels dressed loosely in black, which "suggested the modesty of a nun." How bizarre.

NewsBusters Podcast: Ad Nauseam Trump Trial, SHOCKING Debate Agreement
The hush money trial of former President Trump is the only event happening in the world, according to the liberal cable news outlets perched outside the New York City courthouse like vultures. At least The View has their cracked courthouse correspondent inside the courtroom with a pair of binoculars trained on Trump. And just before Curtis Houck and I sat down to record; BREAKING NEWS…

NewsBusters Podcast: Reagan-Hating Networks Cite Reagan to Help Biden
Ronald Reagan is suddenly a topic in the liberal media, but only as a lame defense of President Biden’s betrayal of our ally Israel. ABC, CBS, and NBC all offered this talking point. Jorge Bonilla explains the Sunday spin.

NewsBusters Podcast: Hillary's Hot Talk of Hitler and Bimbo Eruptions
Hillary Clinton was the big guest Thursday on MSNBC's Morning Joe, and unloaded all the "Trump is Hitler" talk (goaded by Joe) and the hypocritical notes on Trump squashing stories about alleged sexual escapades.

NewsBusters Podcast: A Fun Day on Capitol Hill Truth-Telling About NPR
The House Republicans on the Energy & Commerce Committee invited me to testify about allegations of bias at National Public Radio. How did it go? What was it like? Is there any hope that NPR will change its biased ways? Don't be wildly optimistic.

NewsBusters Podcast: 'SNL' Thinks Dumb Trumpers Get News from T-Shirts
We witnessed another mediocre edition of Saturday Night Live on NBC, but one snippet of the "Weekend Update" fake-news caught my attention. It came from fake anchor Michael Che, blink and you’ll miss it. He joked Biden supporters are "more likely to get their news from newspapers and mainstream media, while Trump supporters get their news from T-SHIRTS!"

NewsBusters Podcast: Biden Laughs at the N.Y. Times Interview Request
The New York Times put out a statement shortly before the White House Correspondents Dinner protesting how it was troubling that Biden has "so actively and effectively avoided questions from independent journalists during his term."What happened next? At the White House Correspondents Dinner, Biden JOKED about it,

NewsBusters Podcast: The Lingo Games with 'Pro-Palestinian Protesters'
One of the ways you can always sense media bias is the terminology that the media elite decides to adopt en masse. Colleges are being occupied by "pro-Palestinian protesters," and you can't (accurately) call them "anti-Israel," not to mention "pro-Hamas." Liberals paint other liberals as pro-everything good, and the conservatives are anti-everything good. Anti-abortion, anti-gay, anti…

NewsBusters Podcast: The Self-Love Flows at Reporter Party with Biden
The White House Correspondents Dinner airs live on CNN, with hours of journalists honoring themselves and how essential they are to America. Often, they are urged to push their bias harder -- "foot on the gas" against Republicans.
