It was a Democratic wave election, and the journalists went surfing. The amount of TV coverage of off-year elections in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City was minimal this fall, perhaps because Democrats were feeling good about their chances and didn't want to give publicity to their opponents. Negative angles on Zohran Mamdani or Jay Jones were ignored or downplayed. MRCTV's Brittany…

Bongino Report content manager Matt Palumbo is out with another book on the Soros family philanthropic empire. This one's titled The Heir: Inside the (Not So) Secret Network of Alex Soros. Our Soros expert Joseph Vazquez helps explain what Alex has been doing to make a mockery of their so-called "Open Society" foundations.  

Congressional hearings are a great opportunity for Republicans to expose the Left with tough questions. In a March hearing with the CEOs of PBS and NPR, Rep. Brandon Gill (R-Texas) demonstrated how to drag them into answers they don't want to give. He joins the Podcast to discuss "public" media and the other occasions of liberal tilt.   

The networks and newspapers hyperventilating over President Trump as a "one-man wrecking ball" who okayed demolition of the East Wing of the White House to build a new ballroom is the silliest Trump scandal imaginable. He's a "mob boss" who may "never leave" office, and his architectural plans betray "a darker history in fascist and totalitarian politics."  

Free speech includes the freedom to mock humorless liberals. Whether it was jokes about CNN buying huge washing machines to launder news or naming transgender Biden appointee Rachel Levine "Man Of The Year," Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon tells us the Big Tech censors came to limit the reach of conservative satire. 

FCC Chairman Brendan Carr joins the NewsBusters Podcast to discuss protecting free speech over the airwaves and online, the future of broadcast licenses, and Operation Clean Carts—his push to block fraudulent Chinese hardware from infiltrating U.S. networks. David Bozell asks about the "public interest" standard for broadcast TV affiliates. 

CNN granted a platform on Wednesday night to socialists Bernie Sanders and AOC in a "Shutdown Town Hall." The host, Kaitlan Collins, interrupted them only nine times. But when Collins interviewed Trump in a town hall format in 2023, she interrupted 113 times. Fox News contributor Joe Concha addresses that terrible tilt and other topics. 

One of the ironies of the left is they boast about backing democracy and then support people who despise Western civilization in its entirety. Ryan Mauro of the Capital Research Center and Joseph Vazquez of MRC Business discuss the “Open Society Foundations” and how they have supported a violent far-left fringe, including terrorists both foreign and domestic.

New studies from NewsBusters demonstrate once again that "public" broadcasting inevitably tilts toward the leftist party, and the latest violent protest in Chicago and Portland prove once again that the press is pro-antifa, pushing their bizarre line that it's not an organized movement, it's just "an idea."

Three weeks after Charlie Kirk's assassination, the media are back to promoting full-throated Nazi smears, especially denouncing ICE agents as Trump's "Gestapo." Plus: the liberal media celebrate the bravado of ICE-hating Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny, recently named the half-time entertainer at Super Bowl 50 in February.  

Jane Fonda is relaunching her father's "Committee for the First Amendment," proclaiming Trump is engaged in a "coordinated campaign to silence critics." We're still reckoning with the dramatic Biden Administration pressure campaign to silence and deplatform critics across Big Tech platforms. But the pro-Biden media routinely ignore leftist censorship against conservative "misinformation."

The indictment of former FBI Director James Comey caused wailing and gnashing of teeth in the liberal TV studios. The most ridiculous argument came from anyone arguing that suddenly the nonpartisanship of our government prosecutors has come to an unprecedented end, as if Biden didn't weaponize the Justice Department, and Democrat prosecutors never sought to ruin Trump.

On Thursday’s Morning Joe, MSNBC allowed Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) to not only dispel concerns around the Dallas shooter’s motive, but to portray President Trump as a destroyer of free speech.

Google admitted the Biden administration pressured them to suppress “misinformation” from their opponents, and they shut down YouTube accounts from Dan Bongino, Steve Bannon, and Sebastian Gorka. But the networks ignore all that as they make Jimmy Kimmel into their free-speech hero, despite his non-stop lying on national TV.
