NBC's Jackson: Hostage Release 'Choreographed,' 'Staged Production'
Thursday morning, Hallie Jackson, NBC's White House correspondent, acted as if President Donald Trump had just invented political choreography, and that no previous presidential administration or politician has ever engaged in it.

As ABC & CBS Focus on Foreign Policy, NBC Presses Pence on Mueller
When Vice President Mike Pence sat down for interviews with all three broadcast networks early Thursday morning, just moments after greeting three American detainees who had arrived back in the U.S. after being released from North Korea, he was logically peppered with questions about the Korean peace process.

Silly Cillizza! People Think We Have an 'Imagined Ideological Agenda'
In the Unintentionally Hilarious Department, CNN's Chris Cillizza tried to deconstruct President Trump's tweet on Wednesday about the latest Media Research Center study finding (once again) the tone of his evening-news coverage is 90 percent negative. Why, we in the media must convince the audience "that our most basic commitment is to getting stories right, not pushing some sort of imagined…
NYT Initially Buries Release of Prisoners, Touts It on Thursday
New York Times reporter Gardiner Harris apparently has no nose for news -- at least not for the kind that may make President Trump look like an effective leader. His Wednesday story, “On Big Day, Top Diplomat Is Halfway Around the World, Raising Questions,” buried the lead in embarrassing fashion while mocking supposedly AWOL Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Incredibly, the news of Mike Pompeo…

ABC, CNN Fail to Correct Claims Cop Kicked Suspect in the Head
Late last week, ABC, CBS and CNN gave attention to cell phone video in Miami which seemed to show a police officer kicking a car theft suspect in the head after he had surrendered.

CBS Suggests Average Iranians Feel Like ‘Hostages’ of ‘Hostile' Trump
The same day the Trump administration was able to secure the release of three American hostages from North Korea in the run-up to the historic summit, CBS foreign correspondent Elizabeth Palmer was in the capital of Iran claiming the people felt like hostages of the same Trump administration.

Press Falsely Treats Trump's Rescission Proposal As 'Cuts'
The press has mostly gone off the rails in covering President Trump's proposal to rescind $15 billion in unspent funds, insisting on characterizing the move as "cuts." The competition for the worst coverage is fierce, but Andrew Taylor's story at the Associated Press, as carried at the Washington Post, probably wins the prize for the most incoherent headline: "Administration proposes cutting $15…
