Sandwiched between their morning news reports about the leak from the Supreme Court pointing to the possible end of Roe vs. Wade, Univision inserted a 30-second advertorial for Planned Parenthood in California, where “more and more women are coming in search of services (abortions) they don't have where they live.”

“And they’re off,” as the callers of horse races say, but in this case, it means the government will no longer enforce mask mandates on airplanes, trains, buses, subways and other forms of public transportation. U.S. District Court Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle, a judge for the Middle District of Florida, said the rule exceeded the authority of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention…

This week, a federal judge in Florida finally struck down a federal mask mandate from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. An extensive number of executive branch agencies have acted in an authoritarian manner throughout the COVID-19 era: The Occupational Safety and Health Administration infamously attempted to cram down a vaccine mandate on every private employer in America, a…

Building off its fear-mongering from Tuesday and Wednesday, Thursday’s broadcast network morning newscasts encouraged viewers to continue masking up on planes, public transit, and when in airports due to “surging” cases of COVID-19 and a need to support the immunocompromised. This was despite Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle’s Monday ruling that struck down the nationwide mask mandate on travel…

CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today kept up the mental psychosis on Wednesday when it came to ensuring viewers stay crippled in fear of COVID-19 and view required masking as the lone backstop against illness and death. Specifically, they argued flying’s “less safe” and “cases will continue to go up” because Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle ended the CDC mask mandate on flying and…

Less than 24 hours after Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle struck down the Biden administration’s mask mandate on planes and public transportation, Tuesday’s CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today stood up for those still paralyzed in fear of the coronavirus, tag-teaming with medical experts to fret people wouldn’t accept two more weeks of masking and that we’ve placed such a dangerous…

Tiffany Cross's MSNBC show falsely blames the "right" for stories exposing Black Lives Matter's secret purchase of a $6.5 million home.  In fact, it was a black reporter at the liberal New York Magazine who broke the story. The other two people who Cross criticized for their criticism of the purchase were two black reporters at NPR!

On Monday’s installment of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, host Trevor Noah declared that Republican senators who did not stay and applaud Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation to the Supreme Court were “assholes” who wanted to get their “free N-word passes.” After crediting Mitt Romney for staying and applauding the vote results, Noah turned his attention to other Republicans, “All…

Supreme Court nominees having to answer questions from senators is part of the process, but  MSNBC’s Tiffany Cross used her Saturday show to declare that Ketanji Brown Jackson having to answer questions from her “basic ass” “intellectual inferiors” is proof that black women face hurdles in America that others do not.

ABC, NBC, and CBS all gushed over the “history” making Supreme Court confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson on their respective Saturday morning programs. Of the three, only CBS put in minimal effort to show substantive criticisms of Jackson existed.

The “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC decided Friday afternoon that they had to up their game for the White House’s celebration of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confirmation, waxing poetic about the “extraordinary” “party” for Jackson, who exudes “excellence” in the face of “persistent sexism,” “racism,” and “attacks” from Republicans and those who haven’t joined in “this moment of…

All three networks on Friday praised the confirmation of Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first female African American on the Supreme Court, as “history made” and “an inspiration for everybody in this country.” And while all Americans should rightly be proud of another racial barrier falling, liberal journalists were not as excited when Condoleeza Rice became the first female African American…

Reaching to new Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Senate confirmation vote, Friday’s CBS Mornings debased itself with cartoonish fluff and hero worship over Jackson and the “emotional,” “exciting,” and “proud” moment that so many had “people...watch[ing]” that the country’s “collectively...beaming with...pride” for her.

Bianna Golodryga twisted herself into a logic pretzel on Friday’s CNN Newsroom as she condemned Republicans for not appreciating Ketanji Brown Jackson’s to the Supreme Court while Vladimir Putin seeks to divide Americans and while waging war in Ukraine.
