Presidential historian and frequent MSNBC talking head Jon Meacham traveled to HBO and Real Time with Bill Maher on Friday to wax poetic about “there is a patriotic duty” to vote for Joe Biden and that any Republican who votes for Donald Trump needs to stop and heed the words of George Washington.

It was a foreign policy-heavy edition of PBS NewsHour’s weekly Friday news recap segment with New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart. Together with host William Brangham, the duo would claim that the “far-right” threatens to throw the GOP into chaos for its opposition to Ukraine aid, but not only did the far-left…

Former 60 Minutes anchor Katie Couric recently joined Bill Maher on his podcast Club Random. During a discussion on income inequality, Couric mused that those who support Donald Trump are motivated by anti-intellectualism and jealousy.

Whoopi Goldberg echoed all over the media world when she charged the Republicans "want to bring slavery back" as she raged against an abortion ban in Arizona. Who will fact-check her on this crazy claim?

The calendar might say 2024, but for MSNBC’s Joy Reid, it is still 2012. On Tuesday’s installment of The ReidOut, the eponymous host declared that it was “grotesque” for pro-lifers to quote Abraham Lincoln while also demanding women “wake up” because “the Republican Party has openly declared war on women.”

The cast of Comedy Central’s Wednesday installment of The Daily Show managed to hit all the wrong notes as it reacted to conservative criticism of President Joe Biden recognizing Easter Sunday as Transgender Visibility Day. Temp host Desi Lydic tried to suggest that Biden had nothing to do with his own proclamations and butchered multiple Biblical references, while correspondent…

In the world of CNN, Donald Trump and conservative media’s focus on illegal immigrant murderers is just an attempt to blame “brown folks” for all of the country’s problems. Inside Politics host Dana Bash and national politics correspondent Eva McKend’s Monday assessment came as Trump traveled to Michigan, where a young woman was recently murdered by an illegal immigrant.

MSNBC’s Joy Reid and her favorite Republican, Michael Steele, oohed and awed on Thursday’s The ReidOut over President Joe Biden’s fundraiser with former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama and a cast of celebrities, including CBS’s Stephen Colbert.

The cast of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show came together on Tuesday to put together a satirical movie trailer about a male GOP politician who becomes a woman after a “freak jacking off accident” and has an epiphany that the party needs to support abortion, all while portraying the party as a bunch of out-of-touch, sex-crazed misogynists.

MSNBC’s Joy Reid was not the only NBC and MSNBC employee to lament the hiring of former RNC chair Ronna McDaniel, but she may have been the most unintentionally hilarious. The noted election denier used Monday’s edition of The ReidOut to claim that she has no problems with the network hiring Republicans because some of them even guest host her show, the most left-wing show on the…

Professional fact-checkers love to add context to their articles to argue why the claim made by whoever they are checking is more complicated than the claimant is suggesting. This can also be evidence of double standards.

In 2020 and 2024 respectively, GOP President Donald Trump and Democratic President Joe Biden each faced three longshot primary challengers, but the media coverage of these campaigns was vastly different, a NewsBusters study has found.

The Monday edition of ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! unwittingly revealed a truth about comedy shows: you can’t trust their man on the street segments. This particular segment saw the show head to South Carolina for a Trump rally in an attempt to portray Trump supporters as stupid, but the interviewer disallowed a correct answer because someone away from the microphone and camera already…

Donald Trump going up against Joe Biden is not the only thing familiar about the 2024 presidential election. There is also MSNBC’s Joy Reid spreading voter suppression conspiracy theories.
