CBS Boosts Conspiracy Theory GOP Lawmakers Part of ‘Inside Job’ Attack
With absolutely ZERO evidence to back up the assertion, CBS Evening News spent part of Wednesday’s newscast giving oxygen to a conspiracy theory spawned from a Democratic congresswoman, claiming Republican members of Congress were in league with the insurrectionists and intentionally gave them “reconnaissance” assistance. The network even brought on a former U.S. attorney to call them…
Cuomo, Lemon Argue Our Riots Were Cooler Than Yours and ‘Justified’
Politically motivated violence is wrong, disgusting, and not justifiable no matter the cause. But not according to CNN's PrimeTime host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo and CNN Tonight host Don Lemon. During the Tuesday handoff between their shows, the duo essentially argued that the Black Lives Matter and Antifa riots from last spring and summer were cooler than last week’s Capitol Hill…
ABC, CBS Glad GOPer Backing Impeachment, Ignore Dem Pumping Brakes
With all three of the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) leading their Tuesday evening newscasts with word Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney (R) planned to support the Democratic effort to impeach President Trump for his incitement of the Capitol attack last week, only one of them felt like being balanced enough to note Democratic opposition to the move: NBC Nightly News.
ABC Rips First Lady’s Statement on Capitol Attack, Ignores Condolences
In a statement published Monday, First Lady Melania Trump shared her heartfelt condolences for those who lost their lives in last week’s deadly insurrection by Trump supporters at the Capitol. “With nearly every experience I have had, I found myself carrying many individual’s stories home with me in my heart,” she wrote on her time as the First Lady. But ABC’s vindictive White House…
Nets Ignored Cuomo Order Caused Hospitals to Toss Out Vaccine Doses
While broadcast networks like CBS were bashing Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) last week for shifting coronavirus vaccine doses from slow hospitals to locations that could get them out faster, all of the networks refused to cover how a ridiculous executive order from New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) was responsible for many doses getting binned, because they expired in freezers rather than…
Nets Push Bogus Claim Cops Harsher on BLM than Trump Supporters
The liberal media seem to think that just because Trump-supporting insurrectionists laid siege to the Capitol building on Wednesday, that they can just make up whatever facts they wanted to push their narrative. Thus was the case Thursday when ABC’s World News Tonight, CBS Evening News, and NBC Nightly News pushed the bogus claim that D.C. area law enforcement went…
CBS Tells McCarthy to Join Rioters, Ignored Bomb Planted at RNC
Wednesday saw disgusting acts of sedition and insurrection from radical elements of the far-right as Trump supporters launched an assault on the Capitol, breaching its halls and offices. The acts were roundly and justly condemned by most sound people on the right, both from lawmakers and right-wing media figures. But CBS Evening News wasn’t having it. Instead, they ignored those…
CBS Claims Trump Supporters Plan to 'Storm the Capitol' With 'Weapons'
CBS Evening News wore their hatred for Trump supporters on their sleeve Tuesday as anchor Norah O’Donnell and White House correspondent Weijia Jiang claimed, without evidence, that pro-Trump protesters gathering in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday planned to bring “weapons” and “storm the Capitol” building in some kind of coup attempt.
Cuomo Touts GA Election Official He Once Accused of Voter Suppression
Some of you might remember when CNN's PrimeTime host Chris “Fredo” Cuomo went toe-to-toe last year with Georgia election official Gabriel Sterling regarding the baseless accusations of voter suppression against the black community. In fact, Sterling made Fredo look like such a fool, that the schooling made it into NewsBusters’ top Fredo moments of 2020. Well, Cuomo seemed to have a…
CNN Does PR for Warnock: GOP Attacks On Him Are 'Out of Context'
With the Georgia Senate races wrapping up on Tuesday, CNN decided to do some PR for Democratic candidate Raphael Warnock. On Saturday’s CNN Newsroom, anchor Fredricka Whitfield brought on Warnock to dismiss attacks on Warnock as taking him “out of context” and to portray the “man of the cloth” as being too good of a Christian to fire back at his opponents.
Raddatz Seeks Reassurance from Stacey Abrams Dems Will Win Georgia
With ABC working very hard to hide the disgustingness (Ties to China, domestic violence accusations, child abuse, sexually violent rapper) of the Democratic Senate candidates in Georgia from their viewers, co-host Martha Raddatz spent part of Sunday’s This Week seeking reassurance from Georgia conspiracy theorist and failed Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams that the…
MSNBC Laments Christmas Gatherings 'Will Lead to Somebody Dying'
On Tuesday’s Morning Joe, MSNBC fill in hosts Jonathan Lemire and Kasie Hunt conspired with medical contributor Dr. Kavita Patel and Princeton professor Eddie Glaude Jr. to attack the Trump administration for the COVID vaccine rollout and Americans for gathering with their loved ones on Christmas. Patel complained that the vaccine rollout is not fast enough and called it “a total…
REWIND: The Media’s Four-Year War Against the Trump Presidency
While every President has their critics in the press, the Trump presidency has been unique in that a massive percentage of the media — hosts, columnists, commentators, contributors, anchors and working reporters — openly mock and disparage the President of the United States, often to the cheers of their brethren.
Nets Give Cold Shoulder to Eco-Terrorist Attack on Aspen Gas Lines
Bias by omission was the theme Tuesday for ABC, CBS, and NBC. While they ignored a dubious Democratic campaign event in Georgia and liberal California releasing sex offenders, they also turned a blind eye to an attack in Aspen, Colorado by eco-terrorists who targeted natural gas lines in the area, and killed the heat to around 3,500 customers as temperatures dropped to near ZERO with a…
