CNN's Costas Misleadingly Compares Gun Control To Traffic Laws
I’m beginning to think the liberal media doesn’t understand what “bipartisanship” means. At least Bob Costas seems to have some trouble with the term, as his Friday morning interview on CNN’s New Day veered off from a fairly grounded discussion of much of the professional sports world’s advocacy for gun control into a string of misleading analogies that were heavy on the feelings but light on…
NYT: For GOP, ‘Individual Rights Trump' Society, 'Regardless of Cost'
After an 18-year-old killer massacred 19 students and two teachers at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas on Tuesday, the New York Times geared up for another attempt at federal gun control, under the name of “gun safety,” even while admitting deep into its coverage that long-desired Democratic proposals would probably not have prevented the massacre. Reporters Jonathan Weisman and Emily…
CNN's Tapper Allows for Some 'Sober, Serious Firearms Journalism'
In the anti-gun hurricane that has been the liberal media’s response to the tragic Texas school shooting all week, including calls for sweeping bans on everything from rifles to handguns to shotguns, the eye of that storm seemed to pass over CNN’s The Lead on Thursday as anchor Jake Tapper brought on the founder of The Reload (the home for “sober, serious firearms journalism”) former MRCTV…
NewsBusters Podcast: Fact-Checking the Left’s Shameful Lies on Guns

CNN Runs Misleading Pro-Gun Control Fact Check of Abbott
While attempting to fact check Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Friday on his claim that there is no correlation between gun laws and gun deaths, CNN Newsroom host Alisyn Camerota failed to not only consider what Abbott actually said, but cherry-picked her statistics in an attempt to prove him wrong.
Go Figure: Sky News Leftist Who Battled Cruz on Guns Has Some Issues
Sky News reporter Mark Stone has gone viral this week for his combative interview with Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) attempting to shame him for refusing to endorse mass gun control measures (so, like those back in Europe). Between Thursday night and Friday morning, the confrontation was trumpeted on ABC, NBC, CNN, and MSNBC with Stone trashing “American exceptionalism” as “so awful.” However, he’s…
Late Night Hosts Get Confused By The Concept of Doors
Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Kimmel, and Seth Meyers used their Thursday show to inform the world that they do not know how doors work as they were responding to a suggestion from Sen. Ted Cruz to limit the number of entrances on school premises in the aftermath of the mass shooting in Uvalde.
CBS Anti-NRA, 'Assault Rifles' Narrative Upended by Its Own Reporter
CBS chief political analyst John Dickerson had the tough job of breaking some bad news to the cast of CBS Mornings on Friday as he informed them that the reason why there won’t be an assault weapons ban after Uvalde is because nobody agrees on what an assault weapon even is. Nor is the NRA responsible for the lack of gun control, rather Republican members of Congress are simply representing…
Another Big Story the Press Missed
WASHINGTON -- The day after Robby Mook, the head of Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign for the presidency, implicated her at the top of a conspiracy to link Donald Trump in 2016 with a Russian bank, I could find no mention of it in the leading newspapers of the Republic, save The Wall Street Journal. The Journal covered Mook's testimony in a federal courtroom quite well.
Column: 'The Simpsons' Rails Against Capitalism
Fox’s cartoon The Simpsons just concluded Season 33 on May 22 with a rip-roaring attack on capitalism and how the middle class has been shredded. It starred a singing janitor played by actor Hugh Jackman and a professorial cameo by socialist Robert Reich, who was once Bill Clinton’s Secretary of Labor.
CBS Reporter: Beto Press Conference Stunt 'Very Clearly Staged'
CBS reporter Janet Shamlian performed actual journalism and reported on what she observed at the Uvalde, Texas press conference on the tragic school shooting when Beto O'Rourke rudely attempted to upstage it.
REID: GOP Only Wants Book Bans, Forced Births, Harassing LGBTQ & Guns
On Thursday’s The ReidOut on MSNBC, host Joy Reid once again decided to viciously attack the Republican Party over their support of the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution. In an unhinged rant, she claimed Republicans “don’t actually do anything” except block what she describes as “sensible gun reform.”
Ted Cruz, Roger Wicker Slam Media for Pushing Dem Gun Control Agenda
ABC’s Capitol Hill correspondent Rachel Scott continued her harassment of Republican Senators Thursday in the network’s apparent attempt to bully enough Senators into supporting the Democrat’s gun control agenda, this time with help from Sky News reporter Mark Stone. However, two Republican Senators were able to turn the tables on both Scott and Stone.
Don Lemon Sets Up Houston Mayor to Lobby Against NRA Convention
On the Wednesday edition of CNN’s Don Lemon Tonight, the show’s titular host allowed Democratic Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner to bemoan the city’s upcoming annual NRA meeting.
