Peter Navarro Gives CNN's Berman a Hydroxychloroquine Assignment
April 7th, 2020 7:18 PM
CNN, along with MSNBC, remains one of the media bastions still remaining hostile toward the use of hydroxychloroquine. One big reason for this hostility is that President Donald Trump has been publicizing its use in the treatment of coronavirus. Therefore if the Orange Man thinks it is good, then CNN (and MSNBC) automatically think it is bad.

April 3rd, 2020 7:46 PM
Throughout the coronavirus pandemic, CNN has shown an inability to shy away from framing the pandemic through the lens of attacking President Trump. Another tic has been their continued refusal to describe frequent guest Dr. Leana Wen as a former president of Planned Parenthood.

Wow: New Day Blasts Schumer, While Finding Silver Lining for Democrats
March 5th, 2020 11:35 AM
CNN rarely criticizes Democrats so it was an anomaly when Thursday morning’s New Day panel blasted Sen.

On Monday's New Day show, CNN gave an unchallenged forum to liberal economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman to trash the Trump administration and other Republicans over issues like tax cuts and the Coronavirus issue, the latter of which he likened to President George W.

CNN Invites Stone Juror to Bash Trump's 'Baseless' Claims of Bias
February 21st, 2020 11:04 AM
Friday morning, CNN brought on a juror from the Roger Stone trial to dismiss President Trump’s claims of political bias.

Vindman, to his administration’s illegal immigration policies. The…

CNN’s New Day brought on ex-Congressman Joe Walsh on Friday to announce he’s dropping his bid for the Republican nomination after pulling one percent of the vote in the Iowa caucuses this week. Host John Berman described Walsh as a “Tea Party Republican” even as Walsh said he’d vote for a socialist over the alleged “dictator” Donald Trump. This makes sense, since Walsh's dire talk of "dictator"…

February 5th, 2020 9:33 PM
On the morning after President Donald Trump delivered his 2020 State of the Union address, there was further evidence of how heavily skewed toward the left that CNN has become as New Day did not feature a single pro-Trump guest to react to the speech.

February 3rd, 2020 12:29 PM
There is going soft on Democrats, and then there's just embarrassing. On Monday's New Day, CNN anchor John Berman repeated Jill Biden back to herself that "Hunter is the heart and soul" of the Bidens.
