Rachel Maddow

Liberals may view MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow as something of an intellectual, but her Monday show disproved that notion. If all you did was listen to Maddow, you would come to the conclusion that Trump is waging war on universities simply because he can and not because they have an anti-Semitism problem.

In late February, Dr. Mahendra Amin settled his defamation suit with MSNBC (for an undisclosed amount) after they falsely claimed that he had performed medically unnecessary hysterectomies on illegal immigrant women in the custody of ICE, erroneously dubbing him “the uterus collector.” NewsBusters recently spoke with Dr. Amin’s lead counsel Georgia State Representative Stacey Evans (D) and co-…

Thus far, it has been a gloomy 2025 for the late night comedy shows as they have attacked Democrats from the left for not doing anything to stop Republicans, but on Wednesday, a trio of them claimed to have reason for optimism as they reacted to Sen. Cory Booker’s 25-hour talk. Some suggested he get an award, while others claimed he spoke for all of America, while others tried their hand at…

Democratic Sen. Cory Booker may have broken the record for the longest speech in Senate history on Tuesday, but it didn’t accomplish anything practical. Nevertheless, he joined The Rachel Maddow Show to take a victory lap while Maddow essentially worshipped the ground he walked on as she declared he “captured the moral imagination of this nation.”

On March 13, 2020, President Trump declared the coronavirus pandemic a national emergency. Five years later, here are the most extreme quotes from the NewsBusters archives showing how liberal journalists cynically exploited the bad news to bash Trump in order to turn the crisis to Democrats’ advantage

POLL: What Was the Worst Media Take of the Week?

After signing his latest batch of executive orders in the Oval Office, President Donald Trump declared Thursday afternoon that deranged, poisonous MSNBC hosts Rachel Maddow and Nicolle Wallace should be forced to resign for their “disgraceful” comments smearing 13-year-old brain cancer patient and Trump speech guest DJ Daniel.

MSNBC wound down its A-team portion of their coverage of President Trump’s address before a joint session of Congress with a bemoaning of displaced federal workers. This display was unlike any other, and revealed quite a bit about MSNBC and our progressive commentariat.

The initial reaction to President Donald Trump’s Joint Address to Congress at MSNBC centered around outrage at the fact that Trump would dare to honor D.J. Daniel, the 13-year-old pediatric cancer patient who was deputized as a honorary Secret Service agent. Their bilious reaction to that heartwarming moment is the truest indicator of how the night really went for them.

The indispensable weekly dispatch Wednesday night from Puck’s Dylan Byers dove into the fallout from MSNBC’s axing of Joy Reid (and demotions of Jonathan Capehart, Ayman Moyheldin, and Kate Phang) with MSNBC staff reportedly uneasy with longtime host Rachel Maddow’s latest public blasting of her bosses. While her public criticisms were supported in the past (and we’ll get to those later),…

On-air reactions to recent programming changes continue to reveal the ongoing institutional rot at MSNBC. As part of a network-wide prime time meltdown, star anchor Rachel Maddow openly blasted the programming changes that led to the cancellation of multiple programs in addition to Joy Reid’s. 

As reported yesterday, left-wing propaganda outlet MSNBC made significant changes to their programming slate. Most notably, the network canceled The ReidOut, the prime-time vehicle for bitter race arsonist Joy Reid. It was unclear whether she’d come on for a farewell broadcast. But at 7PM Eastern time, we had our answer. Farewell, indeed.

CNN being found liable for malicious defamation might have put the fear of God into MSNBC. In a filing obtained by NewsBusters, NBCUniversal and plaintiff Dr. Mahendra Amin had entered into settlement negotiations on Thursday. Although, they’re still working on the language.
