Reporters loved calling it ‘Bridgegate,’ summoning images of the grand Watergate scandal. But ‘Bridgegate’ is really a case study in how the liberal media thugs will use their clout to rough up politicians who might stand athwart their agenda.

When Bill Clinton was impeached in 1998, angry reporters branded his impeachment a “legislative coup d’etat” and a “spiteful” act from Republicans. When Donald Trump was impeached exactly 21 years later, journalists lauded it as an example of Democrats “putting principle before politics” and “a great day for constitutional democracy.”

Six years ago today, November 26, 2016, news broke of the death of Fidel Castro, the former communist dictator of Cuba. His death was an opportunity for journalists to salute the prison state’s advances in health care, and to mindlessly babble about how Cubans supposedly preferred donkey carts to modern automobiles.

On Tuesday's The 11th Hour show, MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle wrapped up the show by promoting the twisted view that aborting unborn babies is good for the economy. Ruhle introduced the final segment by playing a clip from her show from Friday on which liberal actress Amber Tamblyn declared: "I think we're forgetting that abortion and this kind of access is an economic issue."

As of Saturday, Joe Biden has gone 203 days without giving a sit-down interview to a journalist. What’s even more incredible about this gap is that, when he does them, the President is almost always greeted with softballs. In that way, he’s no…

On Sunday, The Blaze’s Paul Sacca reported on possible replacements for disgraced fired CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, a list which unbelievably included former MSNBC anchor Brian Williams: “Former Fox News anchor Chris Wallace is rumored to fill Chris Cuomo’s primetime CNN slot, according to a report. Another possible replacement for the former host of ‘Cuomo Prime Time’ is former MSNBC anchor Brian…

Today we present the WORST OF 2021: The Damn Those Conservatives Award. 

These journalists REALLY need to get out of their New York-DC bubbles. In just the past couple of weeks they’ve asserted that Joe Biden is getting “worse” press coverage than Donald Trump, that Biden’s low approval ratings are somehow Trump’s fault and a GOP takeover of Congress would “imperil democracy.” The following are the most zany media observations and outbursts from the month of…

Amazing. MSNBC’s Brian Williams departed his show, The 11th Hour, Thursday night for the last time, as noted here by NewsBusters own Curtis Houck. But earlier in the week, he was at the business of smearing the solidly conservative Newsmax Magazine with a blatant untruth.

Thursday marked a harmonic convergence as we wave farewell to the careers of Brian Williams and Jussie Smollett, two fabulists who counted on the Left to promote their misinformation.

Brian Williams, dismissed as NBC Nightly News anchor in 2015 for serial embellishment and lying, signed off from his MSNBC show The 11th Hour. CNN’s Brian Stelter previewed the last show: "There's no word on what the Thursday finale will entail, but here's hoping for a sendoff befitting his position." Williams should be sent off with a lump of coal.

Brian Williams signed off late Thursday night for the final time after 28 years between MSNBC and NBC, claiming on The 11th Hour that he’s “not a liberal or a conservative,” but “an institutionalist” fearful of “the darkness...has spread” across America while equating Trump supporters to arsonists and murderers that frighten him as “an aging volunteer fireman.”

On Thursday night, it was curtains for Brian Williams’s 28-year career at NBC and sister network MSNBC. Incredibly, the serial liar remained employed for six years at MSNBC following the revelation that he had embellished and fabricated stories during his time at the Peacock network. With that, NewsBusters decided to take a look back with Williams's 20 worst moments at MSNBC after his scandal…
