With the Writers Guild of America going on strike, it is likely that America has seen the last of the first half of 2023’s late night comedy shows. Whether America wants them to return is another question as 95 percent of their guests were liberal, a NewsBusters study has documented.

The broadcast networks were shamed into stepping up their game Thursday night and Friday morning in covering the House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing on TikTok as members of both parties put on one of the more bipartisan displays one could ever witness in these divisive times, but they still managed to slip in a few pathetic nods to so-called influencers.

Benjamin “BenDeLaCreme” Putnam of RuPaul’s Drag Race and Comedy Central The Daily Show temp host Al Franken not only alleged that Republicans in Tennessee had no idea what they’re talking about when they passed their “insidious” ban on children attending drag shows, but such laws contribute to high suicide rates.

Monday’s CBS Mornings once again dedicated an entire segment to promoting the terminally unfunny and leftist “comedy” program The Daily Show while the program is featuring a cycle of substitute guest hosts to replace pseudo-comedian Trevor Noah.

MSNBC’s The 11th Hour host Stephanie Ruhle continued to lament that House Republicans will not be conducting their business at the whims of late night cable hosts and former Democratic senators like Al Franken as the duo spent Wednesday night labeling Republicans the party of “tax cheats” and wondering who cares about the origins of COVID-19.

On Sunday afternoon’s CNN Newsroom, CNN political analyst Scott Jennings schooled disgraced former Senator and failed actor Al Franken over his blatantly false claim that Republicans in Congress will cut Social Security and Medicare if they win control of Congress in November. In fact, Jennings tore into him so badly that Franken was forced to turn to CNN Newsroom host Jim Acosta for…

Former Democratic senator and Saturday Night Live cast member Al Franken guest hosted ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday and it went about as well as anyone could predict. During his opening monologue, Franken rattled off a list of supposed threats to democracy including “just how big a dick Ted Cruz is” while later he turned the show into a Democratic commercial during an…

If MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle is anything, it is that she is consistent in lamenting that voters do not understand that President Biden and the Democrats are not to blame for the country’s current economic woes.

Between crushing inflation, gas prices, and a rapid deterioration of America’s standing on the global stage, the Democratic Party has resorted to one final Hail Mary pass before the midterms: use the January 6 Committee to label the entire GOP as a threat to America and scare people into voting Democrat despite their bungling of one crisis after another.

On Tuesday, the liberal hosts of CBS Mornings welcomed on disgraced former Democratic Senator Al Franken and touted how the past Saturday Night Live performer was returning to comedy after his political career collapsed amid numerous sexual harassment allegations in 2017.
