Trump/Bragg Indictment

Amid the voluminous coverage on the “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC this week on the start of the hush money trial brought by far-left Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg against former President Trump, Tuesday’s CBS Mornings whined not enough Americans care about this trial....like ABC’s Good Morning America, who was tickled pink about Trump suffering.

A new study of ABC, CBS and NBC evening news coverage shows at least 90% of their coverage failed to inform viewers that Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and the other elected Democrats going after former President Donald Trump are “Democrats.”

The blog discusses Politico's alleged bias in its portrayal of Donald Trump. Writer James Romoser’s article is criticized for painting the legal system as being overly lenient with Trump. The author argues that by omitting crucial details, Romoser commits journalistic fraud. The blog refers to the case against Trump by New York Attorney General Tish James and also mentions Trump's recent bond…

ABC This Week host George Stephanopoulos closes out his interviews of Republicans with a unique bit of sanctimony- the question of whether they’d support former President Donald Trump in the event of a conviction in one of the myriad indictments against him. And it is one of the loudest Trump opponents in this primary cycle who finally took that question and threw it back in…

CNN's legal analyst Elie Honig broke down pro and anti-Trump perspectives on the Alvin Bragg case in a recent article. Honig dissected how the charges arising from Trump's hush-money payments to Stormy Daniels could result only in misdemeanors or low-level felonies. He contrasted the two viewpoints, highlighting the contentious nature of the case, the questionable credibility of the…

It was only two weeks ago that MSNBC hosts were consumed with righteous outrage that a “liar” and “election denier” like Ronna McDaniel would be permitted to sully their “sacred airwaves.” This was not, they assured us, because of her politics, but…

On MSNBC's Easter Sunday edition of The Weekend, legal analyst Kristy Greenberg fantasizes Donald Trump spending next Easter in a prison cell, reading his God Bless the USA Bible.

In the wake of its Ronna McDaniel fiasco, NBC News tries extra hard to prove just how “cohesive and aligned” they really are. Unfortunately, this now means “cohesive and aligned” with the fringe elements running the show at MSNBC and, by extension, the entire news operation.

It was a year of change for late night comedy. The Late Late show was cancelled by CBS after 5,300 episodes since 1995 after James Corden decided to return to England, Comedy Central’s The Daily Show used a series of temp hosts after Trevor Noah walked away at the end of 2022, CBS host of The Late Show Stephen Colbert finally stopped giving Donald Trump the He Who…

Why is Donald Trump so resilient? As 2023 draws to a close, the ex-president is on track to win the Republican nomination and beat Joe Biden next November. If the election were today, Trump would get his second term. Yet he’s charged with crimes that run a gamut from election interference to mishandling classified information. He’s under gag orders and lost a $5 million civil suit this year.…

During the post-GOP presidential debate analysis on Thursday’s CBS Mornings and ABC’s Good Morning America (GMA), liberal journalists bellyached that the seven candidates didn’t obsess over the four indictments against former President Trump or fixate on a recent Truth Social post calling for charges to be brought against former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen.…

Hot off the presses! On this episode of the NewsBusters Podcast, Managing Editor Curtis Houck and I discuss a brand new Rich Noyes on NewsBusters about the broadcast networks omitting the political party connections of the prosecutors going after former President Trump. Hint: They’re connected to Democrats. We also talked about the return of The View after their summer vacation.

Even though the various legal cases against Donald Trump are taking place in the obviously partisan environment of a presidential election, an examination of ABC, CBS and NBC evening news coverage finds the networks rarely identified even elected Democratic prosecutors as “Democrats.”

A new Media Research Center study finds the ABC, CBS and NBC evening newscasts focused 74% of their GOP campaign coverage on Donald Trump, with the remaining candidates forced to split the remaining airtime. Most TV coverage of Trump (90%) was negative, but the media also bashed his nearest challenger Ron DeSantis (78% negative).
