The network evening newscasts were unsure whether to hail, cover neutrally, or condemn the latest U.S. prisoner swap with an authoritarian regime. In this case, the exchange with Venezuela’s Maduro dictatorial regime, which returned his notorious bagman, Alex Saab, in exchange for fugitive “Fat Leonard” and 10 additional hostages.

The evening network newscasts delivered their breaking news reports on the Colorado Supreme Court decision disqualifying former President Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot with little substance, but plenty of emotional impact. 

The Acela Media are still abuzz over a controversial segment of former President Donald Trump’s remarks in Durham, New Hampshire, and two of the major evening network newscasts continued to parrot Biden campaign talking points in a scramble to turn Trump into Literally Hitler.

If ABC News is going to spend precious newscast time on a sex predator that tried to grab and do God-knows-what to three female students on separate occasions, then wouldn’t it be worthwhile to provide viewers with as much information as possible on the suspect so people know what to look for? It appears not.

As you may already know, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited Washington, at President Joe Biden’s request, in order to lobby for additional U.S. military assistance (shorthand: taxpayer money) in its ongoing war against Russia. The GOP’s attachment of border reforms as a precondition to any further outlays of taxpayer dollars in Ukraine seems to have infuriated the media, if this…

The major evening network newscasts each melted down over former President’s “Day One Dictator” joke during a town hall event with Fox News host Sean Hannity, seizing on the remarks to further push a “threats to democracy” narrative. Only one of these networks was honest enough to show that the purpose of such coverage was to pushing Biden taking points.

When covering the news, it is usually a steady stream of doom and gloom. But on occasion, there are stories that brighten one’s day, especially in today’s polarized news environment. One such story: ABC World News Tonight’s feature on National Adoption Month. 

U.S. Senator Joe Manchin’s announcement today that he is not running for re-election sent shockwaves throughout the Acela Media, worried about the imperilment of both the Democrats’ Senate majority and the Biden presidency. But that panic was most palpable on ABC, which ran wild quotes against a Manchin run.

ABC, CBS, NBC actually covered, on their Wednesday evening news programs, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer’s subpoenas of Hunter and James Biden. However, they spent only 100 seconds total on it.

One is left wondering what, exactly, ABC World News Tonight anchor David Muir tried to accomplish during his interview with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, which very quickly veered into a negotiation over the long sought-after “humanitarian pause” in Gaza.

Today's release of an AI-assisted Beatles song was the most prominent of a number of news stories designed to chew up newscast time and space, as the network evening newscasts continue to avoid reporting on the Biden bribery scandal. Here are some of the others.

Between Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, the “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC all made the cowardly decision to give oxygen to the far-left, perpetually crackbrained protesters at Code Pink disrupting a Senate hearing about aid to Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan.

Following a smattering of mentions since Hamas’s barbaric terror attacks on October 7 and a few full segments, the “big three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC decided this week to finally care during their flagship morning and evening newscast about the “troubling” and “very alarming” anti-Semitism on college campuses (now that the Biden administration has stepped in). Of course, it came with helpings of…

During the first six weeks of House Democrats’ 2019 impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump, the ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts churned out a staggering 398 minutes of coverage, TWENTY TIMES more coverage than they’ve supplied to the Joe Biden impeachment inquiry this year.
