Media Bias Debate

On Monday, Lindsay Kornick of FoxNews.com reported on all the ways CNN has complied with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s directive that the liberal media work harder to sell the Democrats’ massive spending plan. Kornick observed: “It appeared on Monday that CNN received Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi’s, D-Calif., plea to better sell President Biden’s Build Back Better plan loud and clear.”

While accepting the National Press Club’s Fourth Estate Award Thursday night, NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt showed surprising self-awareness as he devoted most of his speech to admitting that the news media must listen to critics and “strive to be better.” It was a far cry from his last acceptance speech after winning the Edward R. Murrow Award in March, when he declared that “…

In a piece posted on Thursday evening, Washington Post media reporter Erik Wemple called out CNN for the liberal news network's refusal to admit that they misinformed viewers in claiming that podcast host Joe Rogan used "horse dewormer" to treat his COVID infection.

On Friday's The 11th Hour, for about 30 seconds, Brian Williams did something that is rare for him and other journalists to do as he admitted that the national news media live in a liberal bubble, mostly interact with others who are in the same bubble, and are therefore out of touch with a mostly red country.

Recall the extensive and scornful media coverage then-President Donald Trump received when he beefed up security around the White House? On and on - and on and on - went similar stories in the national media mocking Trump for building his “wall” around the White House. And famously, of course, President Biden has made it crystal clear he will not build a wall on the southern border. All of…

Climate activist James Murdoch is set to make a multimillion-dollar investment in the Associated Press climate journalism, as if AP didn’t already have a big enough left-wing bias. The Murdoch investment is going toward “the formation of a new climate reporting hub at the Associated Press,” according to an Axios scoop.

During a Tuesday interview with former Today show co-host Katie Couric, current NBC morning show host Savannah Guthrie scolded her predecessor for censoring comments made by late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg in a 2016 Yahoo News interview. Guthrie told Couric that the decision to edit out those remarks “violates a cardinal rule of journalism.”

On Monday, Hot Air’s Ed Morrissey called out the leftist media for the “silent disgrace” of refusing to cover how Americans are still left behind in Afghanistan following the Biden administration’s disastrous withdrawal from the war-torn nation in August. It’s been hard to find any recent headlines about the foreign policy catastrophe, let alone personal stories about those abandoned by the…

Appearing on Fox News Channel’s Life, Liberty and Levin Sunday night, Media Research Center President Brent Bozell hammered the leftist media for “aiding and abetting” in the “cover-up” of the devastating impact of radical left-wing policies. Specifically, Bozell detailed the horrific case of a 14-year-old girl being allegedly raped by a male student in a Loudoun County, Virginia high…

On Wednesday, The Washington Free Beacon’s Andrew Stiles provided some detailed analysis of how the left-wing media have really struggled to “speak truth to power” under the Biden administration. He particularly called out the abysmal lack of press coverage when it came to the corruption scandal swirling around the President’s son, Hunter Biden.

On Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle, says he wants to "see Steve Bannon—in handcuffs—brought to the Capitol and forced to testify under oath [before the January 6th committee.] Period!" Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough promptly second Barnicle's suggestion. 

On Thursday, RedState’s Andrew Malcolm called out the liberal media for trying to cover for President Biden amid a major surge in gas prices. He cited one CNN Business story that laughably announced: “Gas prices are at 7-year highs, and Biden can’t do much about it.”

On CNN's New Day, co-host John Berman taunted Texas Gov. Greg Abbott for signing an executive order banning vaccine mandates, "severely limiting the freedom of businesses to make their own choices." Does anyone remember Berman, or any CNNer, criticizing CA Gov. Newsom for backing and signing a law ordering big-box stores to create "gender-neutral" toy aisles? 

Appearing on Fox Business Network’s Varney & Company Friday morning, Media Research Center President Brent Bozell called out the Marxist left running the Democratic Party and demanded that the media “tell the damn truth” about how extreme it had become. He specifically pointed to the radical defund the police movement and how much political damage it was inflicting on Democrats…
