Economy

CNN always wants to say left-wing radicals are less radical than you think, according to "some experts." They're never going to perform that trick for conservatives. CNN reporter Nathaniel Meyersohn attempted to mainstream socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s demented push for government-owned grocery stores.

The stock market continues to go gangbusters, so MRC Business thought it would be worth revisiting one of CNN’s dumbest End-of-the-World predictions about the Trump presidency to date.

CNN is the latest to suffer from the utter humiliation of prophesying Armageddon-level economic catastrophe as a result of President Donald Trump’s military strikes on Iran, only to have their predictions collapse faster than Biden on the steps of Air Force One. 

The rapidly fleeting shelf-life of the half-cocked doomist agitprop from lefty outlets like The New York Times desperate for an anti-Trump banger of a story is comedic gold in its own right. 

The Associated Press chose to be one of the first to wave the white flag and admit what anybody with a pair of eyes and two functioning brain cells could deduce: The media hurly-burly about how President Trump was supposedly going to destroy the U.S. economy has so far looked like Fake News. 

The New York Times is still force-feeding its readers agitprop that the long-awaited inflation Armageddon it's been hawking for months is still nigh. That’s despite a bevy of welcome economic news in recent weeks that has defied the retrospectively stupid predictions of President Donald Trump’s most pompous critics still high on their bloated egos.

The embodiment of the kind of acceptable liberal journalist to today’s left, CBS Evening News Plus has always ended with anchor John Dickerson let it rip on whatever issue he desires weighing in on. Increasingly, it’s been political and snide, giving his opinion on how much he loathes Trump and the MAGA agenda. Thursday was no exception as he denounced the Big, Beautiful Bill as…

It’s one of the most amusing aspects of MRC Business’s day-to-day routine when staff watch liberal media talking heads forced to eat crow over their blind adamancy that President Donald Trump is going to wreck the economy. CNBC senior economics reporter Steve Liesman is the latest to be found wearing the clown nose.

The same deranged, former columnist for The New York Times who spent years praising President Joe Biden as the best thing since sliced bread is now trying to sound the alarm on so-called “corruption” within the Trump administration.

For a media talking head that had no issue selling Americans on the snake oil of Bidenomics, CNN host Fareed Zakaria clearly exhibited why he has no idea what the term “destruction” means. 

On Thursday night’s broadcast of The Source with Kaitlan Collins, Tennessee Republican Congressman Tim Burchett turned the tables on CNN and accused the network of overhyping the escalating feud between Elon Musk and President Trump while ignoring the very economic anxieties of working Americans.

During Tuesday afternoon’s White House press briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt took the liberal media to task from start to finish on everything from the anti-Semitic terror attack in Boulder, Colorado to fighting fentanyl to Gaza to the National Weather Service. And, in between those, she faced plenty of good faith questions…and others not so much.

Apparently, American innovation and capitalism is destroying us. On Tuesday morning’s episode of CBS Mornings Plus, hosts Tony Dokoupil and Adriana Diaz had a painfully out of touch conversation with Evan Osnos of The New Yorker– a magazine known for their in-depth commentary on real, pressing issues, like the lack of gay children's books in American preschools– about his…

If you come at a career business savant like Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, you better not miss. CBS Face the Nation moderator Margaret Brennan hilariously had to learn that the hard way yesterday.
