MRC Study Shows Elitist Media Maintains Perfect 100% Negative Record on Kash Patel
Analysts examined flagship morning and evening shows on ABC, CBS, and NBC since January 1, 2026, finding 82 instances in which Kash Patel's name was brought up on air.
Out of 53 evaluative statements made by reporters and non-political figures across the three networks, every single statement about Patel was negative.
ABC was responsible for the most negative editorial remarks with 22 statements, followed by NBC with 17 statements and CBS with 14 statements.
The coverage entirely skipped major law enforcement successes like Operation Iron Pursuit, which captured over 350 human traffickers, focusing instead on anonymously sourced innuendo and late-night comedy bits.
MRC Exposes How Media Downplays Bloomberg Spending $80M to Swing Midterms to Democrats
Billionaire media owner Michael Bloomberg dropped $80 million in a last-minute push to help Democrats secure a House majority in the 2026 midterms.
The reporting frames Bloomberg as a late-arriving white knight for Democrats while minimizing his history of trying to influence elections with massive wealth.
The coverage shows a clear double standard when reporting on political donors, providing friendly spin for left-leaning billionaires while scrutinizing conservative donors.
Media outlets celebrated Bloomberg's massive cash influx as healthy democratic participation rather than political influence.
MRC Honors RFK Jr. with 3rd Annual Free Speech Award for Fighting Government Censorship
RFK Jr. was targeted by censorship under the Biden administration, including the removal of his non-profit page and campaign documentary from major social media platforms.
His name appeared prominently on government-promoted lists of figures accused of spreading medical misinformation.
Upon taking office as Secretary of Health and Human Services, he dismantled taxpayer-funded programs within sub-agencies that monitored and restricted online discourse.
He established strict transparency regulations restricting HHS officials from directing content suppression on social media platforms.
