CBS’s Margaret Brennan Offers No Resistance to Rep. Omar’s Gaslighting

Jake Tapper Tries to Trip Sen. Mullin on Minneapolis, Gets SCHOOLED
A great deal of media coverage of the events in Minneapolis is marred by a bad-faith framing of the events that ultimately seek to blame the ICE agent and ICE policy for the unfortunate death of Renee Nicole Good.

NBC’s Vespa: Vance Claimed ‘Without Evidence’ Renee Good Was a Radical

NewsBusters Podcast: It's Not 'Minnesota Nice' If You Run Over ICE

NBC Is The Only Network Newscast to Cover Venezuela Prisoner Release
The aftermath of the ICE shooting of an anti-ICE activist in Minnesota has quickly exploded into a national story that sucks the oxygen out of anything else trying to elbow its way into the news cycle .

OMISSION: Nets Suppress Reports of Renee Good’s Anti-ICE Activism
In the case of the shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE officer in Minneapolis, there is a congealing media narrative of a wife, mother, and good neighbor being gunned down in cold blood by the evil fed.

NYT, WP Alarmed Over Trump Christmas Messages, But Fine With Biden's
“Trump Administration Emphasizes Religion in Official Christmas Messages,” a Christmas Day story by New York Times reporter Ashley Ahn, was an exquisite example of the paper’s blatant political double standards, portraying
Team Trump’s religiously themed Christmas messages (imagine that) as a threat to the country’s vaunted “separation of church and state,” while ignoring former…
Holy Hypocrisy! Paper's Xmas Editorial Swaddles Illegals, Shames MAGA
The Orlando Sentinel’s lead editorial on Christmas Day, “Regard immigration in the spirit of the season” engages in hypocritical emotional blackmail against Christians by aiming to use their own religious precepts against them – Christians being a group that the paper has never held any particular brief for before.

NPR Won't Credit Trump as Crime Plummets, Will Blame Him If It Rises
“Crime in the U.S. fell in 2025. Will the trend continue?” ran on the Christmas Eve edition of National Public Radio’s Morning Edition. But after months of coverage bashing President Trump for sending troops into cities to fight crime (i.e. “Do Trump's D.C. moves echo an authoritarian playbook?”) Trump gets no credit in reporter Meg Anderson’s good-news story about an…
The Spiked ‘60 Minutes’ Piece on the Salvadoran Jail Was Quite Stupid
On Monday night, the now-infamous 60 Minutes segment pulled by editor-in-chief Bari Weiss seemed to have self-deported and aired up in Canada on Global TV, one of its broadcast networks. With it now available to the masses (thanks to social media), we can now give it a full viewing and not a she-said, she-said between Weiss and correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi. Spoiler alert: the piece…
Magazines Dare to Blame Israel, USA, Jews for Bondi Beach Massacre
The Bondi Beach massacre of Jews celebrating Hannukah resulted in two nasty blame-the-victim pieces, one in the far-left The Nation (no surprise, considering the author) and one in Time magazine, desperately blaming everyone else but the actual Islamic perpetrators of the murders. The Nation’s Dave Zirin, supposed “sports editor” of the far-left rag, spends much of…
