CNN senior national correspondent Sara Sidner did her best to make mountains out of molehills on Wednesday’s CNN Newsroom as she reported on a “controversial” news event. That controversy? Donald Trump speaking to the National Association of Black Journalists.

After a week off, Comedy Central’s The Daily Show returned on Monday with Jon Stewart in the anchor seat to recap President Joe Biden’s decision to step aside and Vice President Kamala Harris taking his spot as the Democratic presidential nominee.

HBO’s John Oliver began Last Week Tonight on Sunday by recapping Vice President Kamala Harris’s entry into the presidential race by accusing Republicans of resorting to outright racism” and falsely accusing her of being a radical left-winger.

On the Saturday edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, Tara Setmayer's rebuke of Donald Trump as the real "bum" in the race sends co-host Symone Sanders-Townsend into a frenzy.

Now that Vice President Kamala Harris is the likely Democratic presidential nominee, MSNBC can revert back to their old trick of playing the race card. On Friday’s edition of The 11th Hour, Prof. Eddie Glaude Jr. joined host Stephanie Ruhle’s panel to claim the election is now a choice between the forces of the future and those advocating racial “backlash.”

White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez has been extremely protective of fledgling Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, and Thursday evening’s PBS News Hour opened with ten minutes of Barron-Lopez celebrating Harris and bashing her Republican critics as racist.

Tiffany Hsu, who covers “misinformation and disinformation” for the New York Times, took the reins of the paper’s “On Politics” newsletter Wednesday under the headline and issued the latest hypersensitive mainstream media defense of the newly minted Democratic nominee under the inflated headline, “Tackling the falsehoods about Kamala Harris.” Yet much of what the paper condemned as “falsehoods…

Tuesday night’s episode of MSNBC’s The ReidOut was a doozy but, perhaps, really not that out of the ordinary for the show’s deranged host, Joy Reid.

Back in 2020, Joe Biden made it a point to pick a black woman to be his running mate. In 2024, now that Vice President Kamala Harris is running for president in her own right, MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell declared it “clearly racist” on Tuesday for Republicans to point this out.

While the rest of the country was discussing President Biden’s decision to end his re-election campaign on Sunday, HBO was airing a Saturday-recorded edition of Last Week Tonight where host John Oliver ranted at Republicans for being “dicks,” supposedly not toning down their RNC rhetoric, and for being “racist.”

On Sunday afternoon after President Biden’s handlers posted for him on social media that he won’t run for reelection, CBS blew ABC and NBC out of the water with nearly four hours of airtime (roughly 3:55) fawning over Biden as someone embedded in “the American story” and set to live “in very rarefied air” of U.S. history and decrying even policy criticisms of likely Democratic nominee, Vice…
