Campaigns & Elections

On NBC's Sunday Today, senior Washington correspondent Hallie Jackson joined host Willie Geist in fearmongering that Republican campaign ads featuring candidates carrying or shooting guns while promising to protect the Second Amendment rights of all Americans could be leading to violent attacks on Democrat politicians. Nowhere in the segment was there any mention of Democrat campaign…

On NBC's Meet the Press, anchor Chuck Todd made one of the most economically illiterate comments he's ever uttered (and there's stiff competition on that front). During an interview Sunday with Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) who is also serving as the National Republican Senatorial Committee chairman, Todd suggested that more immigration into the United States would be the best way to…

Proving once again that phony reporters like ABC’s Jon Karl have no self awareness at all, Karl continually harassed Virginia Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin during his interview on Sunday’s This Week by complaining that Republicans will hold hearings on Hunter Biden’s corruption and lead an effort to impeach Joe Biden and prominent members of his administration. This is ironic…

Wisconsin is the canary in the coal mine for American democracy, according to the New York Times, and it can only be saved if everyone votes for a single party (the Democrats). That’s the confusing if ideologically convenient argument from the paper, as Election Day looms. Saturday’s front page heralded campaign reporter Reid Epstein’s “Wisconsin Republicans Stand on the Verge of…

On Friday evening's The Situation Room, the new CNN was again looking like the old CNN as fill-in host Brianna Keilar invited Democratic Congressman Jim Clyburn (D-SC) to expand on recent comments comparing the U.S. to pre-Nazi Germany from the early 1930s.

In the course of trashing several Republican senatorial candidates, Joe Scarborough says that Herschel Walker lacks "the capacity" to be an effective senator. 

Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart joined New York Times columnist David Brooks and PBS NewsHour host Judy Woodruff on Friday for their weekly recap of the news that was. Capehart declared that as the country heads into the midterms, people are right to “feel apocalyptic” because “they are personally at risk.”

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul finds herself in an unexpectedly close race with less than one week to go until Election Day so she stopped by MSNBC’s The 11th Hour on Friday to be asked by host Stephanie Ruhle if the reason for her struggles is “sexism by voters” and “we give you enough credit” on crime.

With Election Day just four days away, NBC Nightly News anchor Lester “Fairness Is Overrated” Holt was desperate to keep Democrats afloat. So desperate that his last option on Friday was to tell Americans not to trust their lying eyes and ears and that the nationwide crime wave didn’t actually exist. He openly scoffed at Republican campaign messages and suggested fears of crime were…

The front page of Friday’s New York Times admitted voters were worried about crime, which may bode well for Republicans in Tuesday’s elections – but the reporters also did their best to chip away at that argument in “Fear of Crime Looms Large for Voters, to Republicans’ Advantage.” After anecdotes from three crime-concerned voters spread across the country, the Times worked…

It took the readers of Univision anchor Jorge Ramos´ latest opinion column 17 paragraphs of nonsensical fluff to confirm the degree of the veteran journalist´s disconnection from the very demographic he addresses and interacts with on a daily basis: According to Ramos, the reason Hispanics have shifted away from the Democratic Party is because Biden (and Obama) failed to legalize 10 million…

Friday on the “big three” network morning shows from ABC, CBS, and NBC, the trio eagerly touted Oprah Winfrey’s endorsement of the handicapped Lt. Gov. John Fetterman (D) over longtime colleague and Fetterman’s GOP challenger, Dr. Mehmet Oz. Also on the crazy train, two of them insisted Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) was in a tough reelection fight and, on another, they brought in a failed…

The Friday edition of ABC’s The View brought with it one of the more highly anticipated interviews for the show, Pennsylvania Lt. Governor and Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman. If you predicted it would be a cakewalk for him, you’d be correct. They refused to grill him pretty much on anything and instead repeatedly teed him up to go after critics and his Republican opponent…

Of all the stories that could’ve led off Friday’s CNN This Morning, the one that the cast settled on was Oprah Winfrey endorsing John Fetterman in Pennsylvania’s Senate race with co-host Don Lemon desperately trying to suggest it all mattered.
