Jackson Nomination

As was the case on ABC and NBC, CBS flaunted its liberal leanings and gush Thursday for incoming Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson following her Senate confirmation vote, couching their admiration in her being someone to revere beyond ideology (given her gender and skin color) while admonishing Republicans for having “wasted” her confirmation hearings and suggested senators do “soul-…

As the Senate prepared to vote on Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s nomination to the Supreme Court on Thursday, MSNBC MTP Daily host Chuck Todd wondered if she would get more votes if it wasn’t for the “echo chamber conservative media.” Irony is dead at MSNBC.

CNN At This Hour host Kate Bolduan teamed up with presidential senior advisor Cedric Richmond on Thursday to decry the fact that Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson had to face some tough questions from Republicans during her Senate confirmation hearings.

During Tuesday’s edition of The View, ABC co-host Sunny Hostin shouted the succinct point that “you got to call an idiot an idiot when you see the idiot because I think it's taking down our country.” NewsBusters agrees. So, that’s exactly what this blog will do with the idiotic statements they made, including saying they don’t know what a woman is.

ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel stooped even lower in his Supreme Court confirmation hearing analysis on his Monday show as he accused Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn of trying to women "back 50 years" while also going after her looks.

With the Supreme Court nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson likely to be voted out of the Senate Judiciary Committee this week, the coven on ABC’s The View spent part of their Monday show decrying Republican opposition to Jackson and lashing out at Justice Amy Coney Barrett. And according to the head witch in charge, Whoopi Goldberg, the reason was the usual culprit (when they’re…

Reacting to the news on Wednesday’s New Day that Susan Collins became the first GOP senator to announce her intention to vote to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson, CNN chief legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin suggested that it is Republicans who are to blame for the general raise in partisanship in Supreme Court confirmations.

For Tuesday’s edition of The View, ABC brought on Democratic Senator Cory Booker (NJ) for the cackling coven to heap doting praise on and tee him up to attack Republicans for the questions they dared to ask during the Supreme Court confirmation hearings of nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson last week. Of course, there was no mention of the White House’s…

Making his first appearance during a White House Q&A since March 10 (when he asked Jen Psaki whether President Biden owns an electric car), Fox News’s Peter Doocy went toe-to-toe with Biden Monday over numerous statements the latter made during last week’s European excursion that drew condemnations from international leaders and White House walkbacks.

On Friday's New Day show, CNN's Brianna Keilar hosted another segment stacked with criticism of Republicans over their treatment of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, liberal nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court. Frequent guest Sophia Nelson -- who has a history of making incendiary attacks on black conservatives -- hypocritically accused Republicans of "race-baiting" in their questioning.…

The hearings into Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s nomination to the Supreme Court are over, but reporters at the New York Times are still seething about her supposedly racist treatment at the hands of Republicans. They found some other voices that were angry as well for “How Black Women Saw Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court Confirmation Hearing.” Reporters Patricia Mazzei, Tariro…

As NewsBusters colleague Clay Waters has noted this week, The New York Times has spent front page space playing the race card, showcasing the paper’s systemic racism. Well of course it has. As the Supreme Court nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson proceeds, there is The Times instinctively reacting to what has been a decidedly civilized hearing with what can only be…

Columnists Jonathan Capehart and David Brooks joined PBS NewsHour host Judy Woodruff on Friday for their weekly panel discussion to recap Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings. Together, the duo would accuse Republicans of putting her through hell so that they could get on Fox.

The front of Thursday’s New York Times covered the last day of questioning for Biden’s Supreme Court nominee, and delivered more condemnation of Republicans: “Ketanji Brown Jackson Survives a Final Bruising Day of Questions.” The Times barely grazed the fact that Judge Jackson refused to define what a woman is (despite all the press hailing of Jackson as the first black woman…
