On FNC, MRC's Houck SLAMS 'Farcical' WashPost for Axing Hamas Cartoon
NewsBusters Managing Editor Curtis Houck made his return Friday to the Fox News Channel for Fox News @ Night and, on the docket, Houck and host Trace Gallagher lambasted The Washington Post for their “ludicrous” and “farcical” “surrender[ing]” to pro-Hamas voices by taking down a cartoon slamming Hamas, The New York Times giving fashion advice to pro-Hamas protesters, and hundreds of…
Stelter Returns To CNN To Attack Fox, The 'Beating Heart of the GOP'
Brian Stelter returned to CNN on Friday when he joined The Source host Kaitlan Collins to continue his book tour and, just like old times, bash Fox News as the GOP's agenda setter while ignoring how the rest of the media helps set the left's agenda.
'Facts Matter,' Cruz Battles Maher on Left's Election Denialism
Sen. Ted Cruz took his book tour to HBO and Real Time with Bill Maher on Friday where, after some mutual backscratching with the eponymous host, the duo battled it out on the left’s history of election denialism, specifically the 2000 election between George W. Bush and Al Gore.
FLASHBACK: Lib Media Fury After CBS Dumped Nasty ‘Reagans’
Twenty years ago, CBS faced a firestorm after a leaked script to the New York Times showed the network’s upcoming mini-series, The Reagans, was an inaccurate and unfair portrayal of the 40th President, then in the final months of his battle with Alzheimer’s disease.
CNN's Avlon: It's Not 'Reality' That Democrats Are Extreme on Abortion
On Friday's CNN This Morning, CNN's John Avlon presented a "Reality Check" segment in which he denied reality. Democrats, as a party, support abortion up until birth. The woman's "right to choose" is absolute. But when Republicans point this about "morally monstrous liberals" (as Avlon put it), they're somehow not being "real" because abortions late in pregnancy are "rare."
NewsBusters Podcast: NBC's Surprising GOP Debate, CNN Kissed by Hamas
What do we do at NewsBusters when the GOP debate moderators skip the gotcha questions? The NBC debate was fine. We predicted it might be like John Harwood's CNBC snark festival in 2015, but it wasn't anything like that. Nick Fondacaro and RedState's Brad Slager joined the show (in different segments) to analyze the debate and the spinning in the aftermath. Plus: a CNN photographer is…
ABC, CBS, and NBC Elevate Gaza Video from KNOWN Propaganda Influencer
If you’re on X (formerly known as Twitter) and follow the Israel-Hamas War, you’re likely aware of the man we’re about to speak of. Saleh Aljafarawi, dubbed “Mr. FAFO” and “Mr. Pallywood,” is a KNOWN Hamas-linked social media influencer and crisis actor. But those easily researchable facts were of no interest to ABC’s World News Tonight, CBS Evening News, and NBC Nightly News on Friday as they…
PBS Puts Onus on Israeli Victims: ‘Carrots’ for Hamas to Free Hostages
One way to demonstrate the slant in PBS’s coverage of the Israel-Hamas war is to compare and contrast how their interviewers treat representatives of the respective sides. On Monday’s edition of the PBS NewsHour, reporter Leila Molana-Allen conducted a friendly interview with Mohammad Shtayyeh, the prime minister of the Palestinian Authority, which represents the West Bank, and who has failed…
Scarborough: Pro-Hamas Views On Campus 'Ain't Coming From Professors'
On Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough claims that twisted pro-Hamas views on campus "ain't coming from professors." In fact, there are multiple examples of professors on American campuses making pro-Hamas statements. Scarborough then laments the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and claims that Trump won't be able to run on a platform of being moderate on abortion, since he is on record boasting about…
MSNBC Promotes Propaganda Video from KNOWN Hamas-Linked Crisis Actor
In the same week that four other major American news outlets had to answer for utilizing dubious sources with connections to Hamas for their reporting on the Israel-Hamas war, MSNBC seemingly tried to one-up the rest by promoting a video put out by Saleh Aljafarawi, a known Hamas-linked propagandist and crisis actor. On her eponymous show Friday afternoon, Chris Jansing treated him as though…
A Third Try in Texas for School Choice
SAN ANTONIO – Gov. Gregg Abbott has called a third special legislative session in an attempt to push through three priorities that previous sessions have defeated, surprisingly with some Republicans joining with most Democrats in opposition. School choice is one of those priorities. The last session bowed to scare tactics by the powerful teachers unions and Democrats who promoted claims that…
The ‘Problem Child’: The View Frets a Third-Party Run from Manchin
West Virginia Democratic Senator Joe Manchin announced on Thursday that he would not be seeking reelection and instead hinted that he might make a third-party run for president. The liberal ladies of ABC’s The View took the possibility very seriously on Friday and openly worried about how Manchin could hurt President Biden’s reelection chances, and how he was always the “problem child” in the…
NewsNation, IDF Spox Explain How It REALLY Works with Gaza Freelancers
Continuing NewsNation’s coverage of the Israel-Hamas war that more networks and news outlets should emulate, On Balance host Leland Vittert spent a segment Thursday night laying out not only how the much-reported four-hour pauses in Israel’s war on Hamas were merely word games from the press and White House, but how claims from freelancers for news organizations in Gaza should be taken with a…
Stelter Plugs Fox-Frying Book on MSNBC, No Talk of CNN's Hamas Kisses
Brian Stelter’s second book raining fire on Fox – Network of Lies – is coming out next week, but he appeared on MSNBC’s Alex Wagner Tonight on Thursday night to promote it. Somehow, in the seven-plus minutes of Fox-bashing, they didn’t discuss Stelter’s old network CNN having its freelancer literally kissed by a Hamas terrorist. That’s an inconvenient truth for Mr. Facts First.
