President Joe Biden held a truly disastrous off-the-cuff press conference Thursday night, spurred by a damning special counsel report from Robert Hur on Biden’s unauthorized retention of classified documents.

Hell has frozen over, and some in the left-wing corporate media have finally begun to entertain the notion that our 81-year-old President might, in fact, have some cognitive issues. Now is as good a time as any to remind everyone of how desperate these same journalists were to dismiss that idea as a “right-wing” conspiracy theory cooked up by cynical Republicans and “Russian television,” until…

PBS’s weekly political roundtable show Washington Week with The Atlantic lamented that Republican voters would never heed the wisdom of the Washington Post’s fact checker. In the latest edition, two Atlantic staffers responded to comments by Wall Street Journal reporter Nancy Youssef considering how potential candidates Biden and Trump could respond to the current…

A very special episode of Washington Week with The Atlantic aired Friday, devoted wholly to the magazine’s very special anti-Trump issue, already pushed on the PBS NewsHour. A liberal dream team of Atlantic magazine staff joined editor Jeffrey Goldberg took over the taxpayer-supported airwaves to fret over a potential second term for Trump.

It was a triple-liberal-team up against Donald Trump on Tuesday’s edition of the taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour with an interview segment headlined online, “How media organizations are facing the task of covering Trump’s anti-democratic rhetoric.” (Ironically, the segment on the dangers Trump posed to democracy was introduced with news that Trump had been removed from the ballot in…

Trump (Second-Term) Derangement Syndrome was on display in a very special issue of The Atlantic monthly magazine, dated January/February 2024 (see “The Atlantic Melts Down at a Second Trump Term ”) and the PBS-aired interview show Amanpour & Co. was on it, with an interview with Atlantic Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg. The Atlantic has tilted to the…

For the second week in a row, PBS’s weekly journalistic political roundtable Washington Week with The Atlantic defended the elderly President Biden’s “mental acuity,” with the author of a new Biden biography, who also lectured the press on how to properly cover the president: By emphasizing how bad Trump is. Foer gave away his partisan leanings with a choice of pronoun: "...the recent…

The awkwardly named Washington Week with The Atlantic, a weekly political roundtable of journalists which appears on tax-supported PBS, defended President Biden from scurrilous Republican questions about his age and fitness in last Friday’s edition. While the panel did address the important matter of the gerontocracy currently running the country, several of the panelists seemed to…

PBS’s weekly political roundtable show Washington Week has a new “editorial partner” and a new name but the same liberal philosophy. Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic monthly, is now moderator of the awkwardly rebranded Washington Week with The Atlantic. Under Goldberg’s tenure, The Atlantic has turned into a Democratic hive, and he’…

Twelve years ago, NewsBusters exposed an act of plagiarism by CNN host and Time columnist Fareed Zakaria. Here's a look back at how the story unfolded, and the reaction from Zakaria's fellow journalists.

The PBS journalist roundtable Washington Week would never put on a Fox News correspondent or a Washington Times reporter -- they're too opinionated? But on July 21, as they obsessed over a potential third Trump indictment, they brought on Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, whose partisanship knows no bounds.

The editor-in-chief of Atlantic magazine memory holes the Hunter Biden laptop story disinformation while one of its writers dismisses the story because she conveniently doesn't find it "interesting."

On Tuesday's Amanpour and Co. on PBS and CNN International, Walter Isaacson treated viewers of the taxpayer funded show to hyperbole as he likened Republican supporters of President Donald Trump to those who collaborated with Adolf Hitler during World War ii, deriding them as "quisling enablers of the undermining of democracy."

The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg and PBS White House reporter Yamiche Alcindor joined MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell on Monday to long for the days of Barack Obama because those were the days when the president cared about the truth.
