ABC Waves Goodbye to Hunter Biden Pardon, Ducks Outrage at Joe
After having spent Monday morning and evening predictably defending and spinning President Joe Biden’s pardon of his scandal-ridden son Hunter, ABC News waved goodbye to this story all together on its flagship (and superficial) morning show Good Morning America. In contrast, CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today kept up the pressure, acknowledging the hullabaloo.
CBS Turns to Ex-LBJ Aide/Historian to Spin the Hunter Biden Pardon
On Monday’s CBS Mornings Plus, they brought out former Lyndon Johnson assistant Doris Kearns Goodwin to assess Joe Biden’s pardon of his son Hunter. The 81-year-old Democrat was promoted as a nonpartisan expert, as a “Pulitzer Prize-winning historian” with six best-sellers. They oddly compared the Hunter pardon to Gerald Ford pardoning President Nixon and Abraham Lincoln pardoning…
CBS Trots Out Racial Activist Marc Morial to Trash Walmart Cutting DEI
On Wednesday, CBS Mornings Plus gave a wide berth for National Urban League President Marc Morial to kvetch over Walmart announcing it’d be cutting back on its capitulation to wokeism and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs. Worse yet, CBS failed to show basic ethics by not mentioning Morial is married to CBS Saturday Morning co-host Michelle Miller.
WATCH: Walmart CEO Quizzed on CBS After Ditching Woke DEI Policies
One day after political commentator and podcast host Robby Starbuck announced that Walmart had agreed to distance itself from radical diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) practices, a high-ranking Walmart executive chose to do a legacy media interview. Here’s how that went.
Pompous CBS: Kamala Will Beat ‘Darker’ Trump With ‘Silent’ Harris Vote
With ABC’s Good Morning America continuing to run through the tape Monday with more venom toward former President Trump and cooing over Vice President Harris, CBS Mornings predictably had the same idea by emphasizing Harris pledging “unity, collaboration, and freedom” with Trump mired in “grievances,” “personal grudges,” and “violent rhetoric.”
CBS Lauds 'Certified, Bona Fide Person' Who Calls $35T Debt ‘Savings'
CBS News left viewers poorly informed on the nation’s economic state after featuring a professor who referred to the national debt as “savings."
CBS, NBC Admit Biden’s ‘Garbage’ Comment Was Bad News for Kamala
While ABC’s Good Morning America was off denying reality Wednesday that President Biden’s comment referring to Trump “supporters” as “garbage,” CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today were pained to admit he’s “undermin[ing]” and “drawing attention away from Kamala Harris’s closing message” by “courting controversy” with an “unforced error.”
ABC Pampers Walz, CBS Grills Him on Biden’s ‘Garbage’ Smear, Abortion
Democratic vice presidential nominee and Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) surfaced Wednesday morning for two different broadcast network news interviews that couldn’t have been any more different between ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS Mornings. While ABC co-host and former George Stephanopoulos kissed up to Walz with a campaign strategy session, CBS held him to account for…
CBS, NBC Tout ‘Disturbing,’ ‘Startling’ Tales by Kelly About Trump
Although nowhere near the ten and a half minutes ABC’s Good Morning America cranked out Wednesday seething over (years-old) claims from former White House chief of staff John Kelly that former President Trump is a fascist and Hitler enthusiast, CBS Mornings (2:57) and NBC’s Today (2:58) still spoonfed their viewers with coverage of the “disturbing,” “startling,” and…
CBS Dubs Border Towns ‘Safe and Secure,’ Trashes Trump’s ‘Ugly’ View
Along with their horribly slanted 2024 election segment fluffing Vice President Kamala Harris and sneering at former President Trump plus more screeching about Elon Musk, Tuesday’s CBS Mornings sent a correspondent down to the border to paint a contrast from what they said was Trump’s “ugly picture of migrants.” Safe to say, it was mission accomplished as CBS not only declared the…
Media Demand Elon Musk Be Imprisoned for Voter Registration Giveaways
Of course, we all know the media aren’t lobbying for Musk to be locked away because they care so deeply about election integrity. For them, this isn’t about election integrity at all; it’s about Trump. Musk is aiding the media’s most hated enemy, and for that, they want to destroy him.
CBS Giddily Wonders If Elon Musk Will Face Jail for $1 Million Contest
With CBS Mornings Plus leading the way, the major broadcast networks spent Monday morning giddily declaring Telsa founder and X owner Elon Musk could end up indicted by Biden-Harris Justice Department for his America PAC’s daily, $1 million giveaway to registered voters in swing states “raising new legal questions” and “blow[ing] past the line” of legality.
FALSE! CBS Says Trump Has ZERO ‘Evidence’ Kamala Lied About McDonald’s
CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today went apoplectic on Monday over former President Trump’s campaign stop at a Bucks County, Pennsylvania McDonald’s, melting down over the “staged” event with “prescreened supporters” by the campaign (and presumably the Secret Service) and falsely arguing Trump “claim[ed] without any evidence that Vice President Harris didn’t once work at the fast…
ABC HATED Trump’s ‘Dark,’ ‘Personal Attacks’ on Harris at NYC Dinner
On Friday, ABC’s Good Morning America tightly clutched its pearls about former President Donald Trump deploying “dark language” to level “very personal attacks” and “grievances” on poor Vice President Kamala Harris at Thursday’s Al Smith Dinner that “crossed the line.” In contrast, ABC showed no such concern about Harris going after Trump, swooning she “[took] Donald Trump to task” by…
