It’s Their Super Bowl: Networks Go ALL OUT With 90 Mins on January 6
On Thursday, it was the liberal media’s Super Bowl and on the first anniversary of the January 6, 2021 attack and riot at the U.S. Capitol as, according to a NewsBusters analysis of the major broadcast network morning newscasts, ABC’s Good Morning America, CBS Mornings, and NBC’s Today spent roughly 90 minutes dissecting, obsessing over, and painting the 75 million-…
NewsBusters Podcast: Press Resolute, Everything a Threat to Democracy
NewsBusters rings in 2022 with Nick “Night Train” Fondacaro filling in for Tim Graham and discussing the media New Year resolution to make every day, this midterm year, about January 6 in an attempt to swing the election for Democrats. I’m also joined by research director Scott Whitlock to talk about the media’s refusal to better themselves as they stoke hatred against the right.
CensorTrack with TR: Year of Anti-Trump, Anti-Life & Anti-Free Speech
It’s Episode Nineteen of MRC’s newest video series, CensorTrack with TR. This week we gave a recap of some of the worst Big Tech censorship cases of 2021. To start, former president Donald Trump was censored 625 times throughout his administration and beyond. Trump was banned from his Twitter, Facebook, YouTube accounts and more in 2021.

Editor’s Pick: Hot Air Tells Media That Dems Losing is Not a ‘Crisis’
On Tuesday, Hot Air’s John Sexton reported: “Everywhere you look, Democrats are warning about the threat to democracy currently posed by Trump or the GOP or some combination of the two.” After citing an absurd New York Times editorial claiming “Every day is Jan. 6 now,” Sexton pushed back: “You’ll get no argument from me that the riots were anything but bad news, but every day is not January 6…
Column: Do We Need a January 6 News Glut?
On the cusp of an absolute glut of liberal-media anniversary coverage of the January 6 riot, CNN media reporter Brian Stelter was cranky. “We live in a world where Donald Trump's top supporters malign the media for being ‘obsessed’ with January 6.” He argued anyone who thinks this story is overdone is someone "best explained by psychologists or therapists or algorithm developers."
Media Ignored Chief Justice Roberts Warning on Meddling with Judiciary
Joel Pollak at Breitbart reported Sunday that Chief Justice John Roberts of the U.S. Supreme Court blasted attempts to exert “inappropriate political influence” in his year-end report for 2021, as President Biden and the Democrats have pondered proposals to expand or pack the Court with liberals. Roberts did not explicitly mention the court-packing talk, and the liberal media ignored it. That'…
CBS Warns GOP Midterm Wins One of the ‘Top Global Risks’ in 2022
On Tuesday, CBS Mornings co-host Tony Dokoupil and Eurasia Group president Ian Bremmer sounded the alarm over the possibility of Republicans winning big in the 2022 midterm elections, something they hysterically labeled one of “the top global risks” in the year ahead. The pair claimed any GOP victory in the midterms or the 2024 presidential contest would be seen as “illegitimate.”
Isn't That CNN? Cupp Claims Fox Wants America Divided, in 'Disarray'
S.E. Cupp works for CNN, the same channel that spends virtually every day complaining any push-back to the left's agenda is an "attack on democracy." Yet she had the audacity to claim that one Fox News host laughing at infighting between Democrats means the right “wants to see disarray in America” and “two Americas.”
Editor’s Pick: CNSNews on False Media Claims of DeSantis ‘Vacation’
On Monday, CNSNews Blog Editor Craig Bannister reported on far-left Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her liberal media buddies, like MSNBC anchor Joy Reid, “accusing Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis of being on ‘vacation,’ and nowhere to be found during a pandemic.” However, as the article noted, they got their facts wildly wrong: “DeSantis was actually on the job – except…
Tur Fears ‘Next Election Won’t Be Fair,’ Hopes for 2024 ‘Contingency'
On her Monday afternoon show, MSNBC anchor Katy Tur tried to preemptively claim that elections results in 2022 and 2024 – contests in which Republicans are expected to do well – would be illegitimate. She even wondered in there was a “contingency plan” in place for 2024 in case “there is another violent insurrection with millions of people.”
Morning Joe Hails Biden's 'Christmas Miracle: WH That Saved Christmas'
The opening segment of the December 23 Morning Joe was one — interminable — tongue bath for Joe Biden. On everything from the omicron variant to the supply chain, to inflation, the panel lavished praise on Ol' Saint Joe. The praise reached its absurd apotheosis with Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski twice -- joking-not-joking -- speaking of a "Christmas miracle." Scarborough ended…
CNN’s 2022 Resolution: Make Everything an Attack on Democracy
On Sunday, CNN’s so-called “Reliable Sources” rang in 2022 with some New Year resolutions for the media (I guess that makes them News Year resolutions) at the end of the show. But there was only one resolution they wanted to stick to and it was to gaslight their audiences by making everything into a threat to democracy.
Editor’s Pick: Blaze on Paper Going After Ted Cruz’s Daughter
On Sunday, The Blaze’s Weekend Editor Chris Enloe reported that “The Dallas Morning News was sharply criticized after amplifying a tabloid-like story about the 13-year-old daughter of Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), which seemingly attempted to pit the young teenager against her father by highlighting differences in political opinion.”
Column: ABC Saves Biden's Bacon In Year-End Roundup
One of the most disturbing concepts in politics is the media elite providing the “first draft of history.” You can test-drive this with a look at ABC’s two-hour year-end special on December 27. It was mostly about celebrities and athletes and some natural disasters. But when President Biden came up, ABC was energetically playing defense.
