World News Tonight

On Wednesday, House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer (R-KY) released records detailing payments that the Biden family and their business associates received from corrupt foreign countries like Russia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan. This was ignored by the “big three” evening news broadcasts ABC’s World News Tonight, CBS Evening News, and NBC Nightly News.

The major broadcast networks have made no secret that, above actual issues such as crime and the economy, they want voters to have Donald Trump’s criminal indictments and January 6 top of mind as they consider what matters for 2024. As such, they’ve spent over 335 minutes on the third indictment alone. On Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, ABC and NBC cheered the changes to Governor Ron…

As the polls were set to close in the special election in Ohio to decide whether to raise the ballot initiative threshold to 60 percent in order to amend the state constitution, ABC’s World News Tonight and NBC Nightly News each ran segments worrying that if the ballot initiative was successful, it would make it harder for abortion advocates to protect so-called “abortion…

UPDATE, 08/11, 11:25 a.m. Eastern: Few things were going to eat into the precious airtime on the flagship morning and evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC and time to spend on the third Trump indictment. But something as apocalyptic-looking as the Hawaiian wildfires did just the trick. Between Thursday night and Friday morning, the networks only added 32 seconds to the coverage tally,…

Fox News Digital reported Monday that Joe Biden's son Hunter's long-time friend and business partner Eric Schwerin had visited the White House while Biden was Vice President many more times than previously known. In fact, Schwerin made 36 visits to either the Obama-Biden White House or the Vice Presidential residence between 2009 and 2016. All three evening news broadcasts ignored this latest…

As we approach the two-year anniversary of the disastrous and deadly withdrawal of American troops from Afghanistan in which thirteen U.S. service members died, the families of those brave Americans are still seeking answers and accountability. Only to be stonewalled by the Biden administration. On Monday, House Republicans held a hearing and heard testimony from the family members of the…

Through four days and three installments each of the flagship morning and evening news shows on the major broadcast networks, ABC, CBS, and NBC have eagerly doled out astounding 162 minutes and 16 seconds through Friday morning salivating over the third criminal indictment of former President Trump that has the potential to either land him in prison or propel him to the White House in 2024.…

All day long Thursday, as reported extensively by NewsBusters, the big three evening news broadcasts were beside themselves with glee over the third arraignment of President Joe Biden's political opponent Donald Trump. Between the live motorcade chases broadcast live, and breathless coverage of every detail large and small, it's clear this was seen by the networks as a ratings-grabbing…

On Wednesday afternoon, NewsBusters brought you the tally of broadcast network coverage of the third Trump indictment as having stood at roughly 70 minutes (70:41) on the flagship morning and evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC. Unsurprisingly, the coverage ballooned ahead of Trump’s arraignment Thursday afternoon on charges relating to his conduct on and prior to January 6. The total this…

On Tuesday, The New York Times reported that the corrupt New Jersey Democrat Senator Bob Menendez is once again under investigation by the Department of Justice for violation of Congressional ethics rules. This is the second time in less than a decade that Menendez has been investigated for corruption and ethics violations. Despite this troubling pattern, the leftist networks seem…

CBS Evening News joined its evening counterpart in picking up where ABC’s Good Morning America left off from earlier in the day in selling a sob story about how illegal immigrants flooding across the border made their way up to New York City and are now sleeping in the street and living in poor conditions. They failed to mention that New York is a sanctuary city. 

Subbing for boss Tim Graham, Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro and dove right in Wednesday with reaction to the unprecedented third Trump indictment, including the astounding totals of coverage on ABC, CBS, and NBC. Spoiler alert: This has given the networks the perfect excuse to wave goodbye to any and all Biden scandals for an indefinite period of time.

On Tuesday, the credit rating agency Fitch Ratings downgraded the United States' credit score for the first time since 2011 due to the mounting debt and federal government disfunction that has occurred during the first two years of the Biden administration. Of the "big three" evening news broadcasts, only NBC Nightly News bothered to cover the credit downgrade. 

On Monday, Hunter Biden’s business partner Devon Archer testified behind closed doors before the House Oversight Committee regarding the Biden family’s corrupt business dealings including a bombshell revelation that Hunter put his father Joe Biden on the phone with his business associates over twenty times. This at the very least proves President Biden’s repeated claims that he was unaware of…
