CBS’s King to Kamala: ‘People Want to Know Are You Feeling Okay?’
Along with appearing on ABC’s Good Morning America, Vice President Kamala Harris joined Wednesday’s CBS Mornings to promote President Biden’s agenda following Tuesday’s State of the Union address and, while it was plenty soft, it got even more cuddly as co-host and Democratic donor Gayle King twice tried to make sure Harris was “feeling okay” in reference to a series of hit…

Where Was the Fact-Checking? CBS Sucks Up to Serial Liar Hannah-Jones
Wednesday, it was cheering on College Board. Thursday, it was being painstakingly vague with reparations advocate Ta-Nehisi Coates. And on Friday, CBS Mornings again raced to the defense of woke educators as they rhetorically knelt at the altar of Nikole Hannah-Jones and marveled at her “knockout docuseries” bringing to life The 1619 Project’s “re-examin[ation of] American slavery and…

CBS, Coates Fret Over DeSantis Crushing Woke AP Class on Black History
For the second day in a row, Thursday’s CBS Mornings expressed dismay at Florida Republican Governor Ron DeSantis’s latest victory over wokeness by tag-teaming with far-left author and reparations proponent Ta-Nehisi Coates to bemoan the revised plans for an AP African American Studies course as an attempt to make students more ignorant and unaware of the country’s ugly past on…

CBS Treats Woke AP Course With Kid Gloves, Ducks DeSantis Dealing K.O.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) scored yet another K.O. to wokeism Wednesday when College Board, the company behind Advanced Placement courses for high schoolers, released its revised curriculum for AP African American Studies after the Sunshine State rejected it for its litany of woke principles, including critical race theory, intersectionality, and queer theory. But when the head of…

CBS Hails Racial Arsonist Kendi's New ‘Anti-Racist’ Book for Teens
Having spent multiple segments decrying the disturbing beating of Tyre Nichols by Memphis police earlier this month, CBS Mornings wound down Monday’s show by bringing in racial arsonist Ibram X. Kendi to fawn over his latest attempt to spread his poison about antiracism (and how black people are still subject to inequities in all facets of their lives by white oppressors) to teens.…

CBS Touts Lefty Ben Crump Blasting DeSantis for Fighting Woke AP Class
Thursday’s CBS Mornings opened its “What to Watch” segment with a little over two minutes touting far-left activist and Al Sharpton-wannabe Benjamin Crump’s threat to sue Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) over the Florida Department of Education’s decision to reject an AP course on African-American culture and history because it was deemed “a vehicle for a political agenda” with topics…

Nets Mourn ‘Empathetic,’ ‘Trailblazing’ New Zealand PM Stepping Down
The “big three” broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC grew embarrassingly weak in the knees Thursday over far-left New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern’s sudden resignation, swooning over her as an “empathetic” “inspiration” and “pioneer” who achieved “global stardom” as “one of the world’s most influential national leaders” who enacted mass gun confiscation with “no pushback.”

Back to the Mat: Nets Leave Biden Docs Behind to Hit GOP on Debt Limit
CBS dropped the Biden documents scandal on Wednesday morning and was followed that night by NBC, so it was only a matter of time before ABC did the same. Sure enough, Thursday’s Good Morning America put it out to pasture. Instead, the three networks resumed spinning for the Biden administration as they slammed House Republicans for refusing to lift the debt ceiling, creating a “…

CBS Plays Footsie With Lefty Hero Schiff on January 6, 2024 Senate Bid
Following Monday’s softball interview with Senator Raphael Warnock, CBS Mornings brought in liberal media darling (and likely serial leaker) and Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA) for a rhetorical foot massage over his work on the House Select Committee investigating the January 6 riot, pleading with him to run for Senate in 2024, and teeing him up to attack likely incoming House Speaker…

CBS Sucks Up to Scandal-Plagued Georgia Leftist Warnock
Monday’s CBS Mornings didn’t cover part six of the Twitter Files released on Friday, but they did spend eight minutes and 22 seconds sucking up to Senator Raphael Warnock (D-GA) over his latest election victory, asking him to run for president in 2024, and pushing him from the left on “voter suppression,” prosecuting former President Trump, and the border.

Column: Enabling Absurd Assertions About Pelosi Propaganda
On December 12, CBS Mornings gushed over filmmaker Alexandra Pelosi, who’s made a series of political documentaries for HBO. But the latest is Pelosi in the House, a valentine to her mother and her career.

CBS Uses Trump Calling to End Constitution to Dismiss Twitter Files
Three days after Twitter head Elon Musk and journalist Matt Taibbi released the first report on the Twitter Files showing liberal censorship of New York Post’s reporting on Hunter Biden’s laptop stole the 2020 election, ABC and NBC have yet to acknowledge these bombshell claims on their flagship morning and evening newscasts, remaining in a world of censorship denialism. CBS arrived…

Nobel Peace Prize Winner Pushes Amped Up Censorship on CBS Mornings
Maria Ressa is a Nobel Peace prize winner, an author–and a supporter of increased restrictions of online free speech.

Evil: CBS Uses Trump Dinner to Paint GOP as the Anti-Semite Party
Is there any difference between John Dickerson and Joy Reid? It’s a worthwhile question as Dickerson and the CBS Mornings co-hosts eagerly used former President Trump’s idiotic dinner with a trio of white nationalists (with one of them also being a Holocaust denier) to tar and feather the party Wednesday as one that trumpets white nationalism and “normalizes” anti-Semites having a…
