7 Lefty Outlets Echo Soros-Funded Groups to Cry ‘GENOCIDE’ at Israel
The "prestige press" of America and Europe is all too willing to repeat radical accusations that Israel is currently guilty of committing "genocide."

PBS’s Anti-Semitism Expert: Columbia Settlement Was ‘Ransom’ to Trump
The taxpayer-defunded PBS News Hour Wednesday retained its hostility (as documented in a Media Research Center study) against the Trump administration protecting Jewish students and faculty from the Hamasniks marauding elite liberal campuses in protest of Israel’s defensive war in Gaza.

CNN Thinks Enforcing Civil Rights Is ‘Fascism’ and ‘Extortion’
If you watched Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN NewsNight, Ana Navarro and Keith Boykin would have you believe Donald Trump is “extorting” Columbia University and running a “fascist” operation from the White House. But let’s get serious. What actually happened at Columbia is not a criminal shakedown, it’s accountability. When a university accepts billions in federal funding, it has a…

'Hypocrisy': Chris Cuomo Slams Lib Silence on Syrian Massacre
On Tuesday night’s broadcast of Cuomo, host Chris lit into what he calls the “pro‑Pal left” with a rhetorical grenade: “I bet you think I’m talking about Gaza… I baited you on purpose to make a point.” Then dropped the kicker: he wasn’t talking about Gaza at all, but about the Syrian Druze, an ethnic minority being massacred by Islamist militias and Syrian forces, with barely a peep from the…

Leavitt Destroys Hail Marys From NPR, PBS Ahead of Rescission Vote
While many in the White House press corps used their time Thursday afternoon to show sudden concern about transparency in the Jeffrey Epstein case, there were a few others who asked real questions about socialist Zohran Mamdani, Christians abroad, hospitals ending transgender surgeries for minors, reopening Alcatraz and, most importantly for those of us at the Media Research Center, the…

Friday’s Amanpour & Co. show on PBS celebrated Mahmoud Khalil, who led an extreme anti-Israel (and pro-Hamas) protest group at Columbia University.

NPR's Extremism Reporter Only Finds Extremism in Trump Protecting Jews
NPR’s radical “domestic extremism correspondent” Odette Yousef took an insane angle on the Trump Administration’s efforts to punish Harvard University for failing to protect Jewish students from anti-semitism on campus – twisting it into Trump trying to halt the arc of racial justice.

Al Jazeera Applauded for Anti-Israel Speech After Receiving News Emmy
During last week’s 46th Annual News and Documentary Emmy Awards, Qatari-backed news network Al Jazeera was given a platform to further their typical propaganda against Israel.

On Sunday’s The Weekend Primetime, MSNBC’s Ayman Mohyeldin suggested that Mamdani was being unfairly targeted by critics on the right because of his Muslim faith and his cultural identity. “There is a double standard,” he said, nodding to Mamdani’s supposed persecution and labeling criticism of the assemblyman as “vulgar” and “ugly.”

Assessments and Credibility at CNN
On Tuesday, in what it labeled an “exclusive,” CNN reported that initial intelligence assessments of the Iran bombing suggested Iran had been set back a couple of months in its quest for a nuclear weapon.
