Reliable Sources

On CNN's Reliable Sources host Brian Stelter dredged up his favorite topic to whine about on his low-rated show: Fox News. Stelter even played the race card by accusing Fox News of "starting a fight that's rooted in white identity politics" because some hosts on Fox disagree with Biden picking a Supreme Court Justice based solely on race and sex. 

In a hilarious and pointed segment on the Fox News Channel’s The Five on Monday, co-anchor Greg Gutfeld unloaded on CNN’s Brian Stelter for taking swipes at Fox News for reporting on the fact that violent and other forms of crime were on the rise throughout President Biden’s America. Even Democratic co-host and former Congressman Harold Ford (D-TN) took Stelter and his henchman Oliver…

On Sunday's episode of CNN's Reliable Sources, host Brian Stelter in his typical smug patronizing fashion ridiculed Fox News for their in-depth coverage of the rising crime in American cities. 

CNN’s Reliable Sources anchor Brian Stelter slobbered over the leftist website ratings firm NewsGuard as some sort of paragon of journalistic virtue. Stelter fawned in a Jan. 16 blog how NewsGuard announced that its business was “reliable enough to turn a profit.” But here was the senseless part: “Although there are many quibbles with specific rulings about certain sites, the results…

For his reliably liberal Reliable Sources program, Brian Stelter brought on former Clinton press secretary Joe Lockhart (wearing his Tom Brokaw glasses) to argue that somehow, the press is "failing" to treat Joe Biden fairly. Apparently, he's supposed to be getting even more positive press than he's received because he deserves a "truth and decency dividend" for being the anti-Trump…

With President Biden failing to “shut down” COVID-19 and the public rejecting their lockdown forever pipedream, the liberal media have begun to transition their messaging to make people think they’re on their side. Hence Sunday’s Reliable Sources where CNN media apologist Brian Stelter was decrying “doomsday-doctors” in the media for spreading “panic porn.”

On the cusp of an absolute glut of liberal-media anniversary coverage of the January 6 riot, CNN media reporter Brian Stelter was cranky. “We live in a world where Donald Trump's top supporters malign the media for being ‘obsessed’ with January 6.” He argued anyone who thinks this story is overdone is someone "best explained by psychologists or therapists or algorithm developers."

On Sunday, CNN’s so-called “Reliable Sources” rang in 2022 with some New Year resolutions for the media (I guess that makes them News Year resolutions) at the end of the show. But there was only one resolution they wanted to stick to and it was to gaslight their audiences by making everything into a threat to democracy.

CNN’s Brian Stelter decided not to start the first episode of “Reliable Sources'' of 2022 on a good note. Instead Stelter continued to rehash the same tired ad hominem attacks he leveled all throughout 2021 by accusing his political opponents of “moving toward fascism”. 

Filling in for boss Tim Graham, NewsBusters deputy managing editor Nick “Night Train” Fondacaro and I were back in our saddles for Monday’s post-Christmas edition of the NewsBusters Podcast and, while it’s often a slower time of the year in the news business, we still had plenty to talk about.

In a stark example of just how detached from reality folks in the liberal media can be, CNN media beat reporter Brian Stelter actually tried to place America among a list of the world’s worst press jailers for 2021. The list included the likes of China and Belarus and was presented on his Reliable Sources Sunday show by Committee to Protect Journalism executive director, Joel Simon.…

On the last so-called “Reliable Sources” of 2021, CNN media apologist Brian Stelter set out to bust some of the “misconceptions” the public had about the media. The misconceptions that needed to be battled included the idea that they have “malicious intent” when they publish fake news and that the media’s political biases were being actively offset internally, resulting in balanced…

On top of all the bad Chris Cuomo news happening at CNN over the last few weeks, things got even worse for the network over the weekend when news broke New Day producer John Griffin was arrested for allegedly attempting to convince parents to allow him to have unlawful sex with their underage daughters. But being the good company man he was, CNN’s Brian Stelter completely ignored the…

When Jussie Smollett was convicted on five of six counts for his hate-crime hoaxing in Chicago, CNN's "Reliable Sources" newsletter on the media didn't spend some time eating humble pie about being swindled. Instead, Oliver Darcy turned the occasion into an attack on Sean Hannity and the right-wingers. Like everything that happens calls for an attack on the right-wingers.
