NBC Whines COVID Not Unifying as 9/11, Like Opposition to Civil Rights
The day after the country marked the 20th anniversary of 9/11, NBC’s Sunday Today was brazen and callous enough to complain that the fight against the coronavirus wasn’t as unifying as that tragic day was; disingenuously ignoring how they weaponized COVID coverage to attack former President Trump. They also suggested that opposition to the Biden administration’s mask and…
Stelter Slammed for Tweet: Anchors Were 9/11 Heroes While Leaders Hid
CNN's Brian Stelter was slammed for tweeting out a piece from the Associated Press media reporter David Bauder claiming network TV anchors were "the closest thing that America had to national leaders on 9/11" with our "political leaders in bunkers or otherwise out of sight."
NYT Uses 9/11 as Cudgel Versus U.S. ‘Torture,’ Hits ‘Heroic Narrative'
New York Times reporter Serge Schmemann wrote the lead story after that dark day when Islamic terrorists attacked the World Trade Center and The Pentagon, killing 3,000 Americans. Today, 20 years later, Schmemann recalled how an English teacher assigned her class to use his article as a source to compose “found poetry.” But Schmemann used the poems as a lens from which he could…
VILE MSNBC Historian: Honor 9/11 Heroes By Fighting Back Against GOP
On Friday's edition of The 11th Hour, MSNBC's resident historian Michael Beschloss declared that we should remember the heroes of 9/11 and honor their memory by fighting back against GOP efforts to suppress the vote and possible attempts to steal congressional seats.
Michael Moore RIPPED Bush After 9/11, LOVES Biden's Afghanistan Exit
In the days after 9/11, one of the harshest critics of President Bush was, predictably radical mockumentary maker Michael Moore. Now, on the day before the 20th anniversary of 9/11, Moore gave an interview to The Hill and bizarrely praised Joe Biden's graceful exit from Afghanistan. Has he been in a cave?
Reminder: ABC Employed Radical 9/11 Truther Nut O’Donnell for Years
On the 20th anniversary of September 11th, 2001, it’s perhaps a good reminder that ABC hired, parted company with, and then rehired Rosie O’Donnell as a co-host of The View. The radical O’Donnell spewed 9/11 conspiracy theories and also trashed “radical Christianity” as more dangerous than radical Islam. ABC liked what they saw so much that they hired her twice, the first stint from…
WATCH: Reporters Remember Covering the 9/11 Attacks
On Friday, several journalists across multiple media outlets emotionally remembered where they were on 9/11, connections they had to the victims, and how they managed to cover the horrific attack on America 20 years ago.
PBS on 9/11 at 20: MAGA Is Much More Threatening to US Than ISIS
On the night before the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, the PBS NewsHour pundit team agreed on the proposition that Trump's backers are a bigger terrorist threat than ISIS.

Bozell Flashback to Days After 9/11: Out Of Tragedy, Unity
Editor’s note: Three days after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Media Research Center founder and President Brent Bozell wrote about the horror of the day, the unity of everyday Americans, and the journalists who had to calmly report on the unfolding terror attack, often wondering about their own safety. Here is his September 14, 2001 column:
NY Times’ Nasty Krugman Marks 9-11: Real Threat to USA is Right Wing
Respected economist turned partisan Democratic hack Paul Krugman marked the 20th anniversary of the 9-11 terrorist attacks in his own inimitable fashion in his column Friday by playing his usual despicable partisan games: “Foreign Terrorists Have Never Been Our Biggest Threat.” Guess who? The GOP, of course: "America was viciously attacked 20 years ago. But even then, the call that…
Doocy Bomb: Why Do Americans Have to Get Vaccines But Not Illegals?
On Friday’s episode of The Psaki Show, Fox’s Peter Doocy capped off a busy week with newsy questions about President Biden’s Thursday call with Chinese President Xi Jinping and why is it that millions of Americans are being subjected to President Biden’s rash of Covid vaccine mandates but not illegal immigrants.
Morning Joe: Wash Post Book Critic Laments Post-9/11 ‘Blood Lust’
Appearing on MSNBC’s Morning Joe on Friday, Washington Post book critic Carlos Lozada chose to remember September 11th by scolding America for succumbing to “fervor and blood lust” while fighting the war on terror in the two decades since the attack. His way of marking that tragic day was to accuse the nation of racism and following its “lowest impulses.”
From Jan 6 to Climate Change, Media's 9/11 Comparisons Cheapen Tragedy
September 11, 2001 is the single worst day in U.S. history -- other than the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor perhaps. That day saw 2996 innocent Americans killed on U.S. soil by a foreign enemy. Serious people know and respect this. But many in corporate media aren't serious people. They cheapen it with ridiculous comparisons meant to smear people and political movements they don’t like, i.e.…
MSNBC Marks 9/11 By Trashing America: ‘Intense Islamophobia and Fear’
While marking 20 years since the September 11th attacks, on Wednesday, MSNBC decided it was a good time to remind viewers how racist America has supposedly been toward Muslim citizens since that horrific day. In two separate segments, the left-wing cable channel claimed “intense Islamophobia and fear” has plagued the nation for the past two decades, after the heinous act of terrorism “…
