The liberal media greeted President Trump’s 100-day mark Tuesday with a torrent of negative coverage, so it was no surprise when CBS used both of its evening news shows — CBS Evening News and CBS Evening News Plus — to nearly go wall-to-wall in spewing disgust at the Trump administration, almost trying to conjure up a recession and economic ruin.

Between Tuesday and Wednesday mornings, the major broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC were head over heels for Senator Cory Booker’s (D-NJ) 25-hour-long, “marathon” act of chicanery “speaking in a protest” against Trump and “shin[ning] a spotlight on” his “rapid fire and controversial actions” through “the little bit of power and influence” they have in Washington. At one point, one anchor…

On the eve of Wisconsin’s pivotal Supreme Court election, which could decide the balance of the Court, the permanence of Scott Walker’s reforms and potentially alter the makeup of Congress, CBS aired a report that simultaneously broadcasts the Elite Resistance Media’s contempt for the Rust Belt and its severe Musk Derangement Syndrome.

The “Big Three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC were fired up Monday morning with coverage of Tuesday’s Wisconsin state Supreme Court election and predictably were apoplectic over Elon Musk’s tens of millions of dollars spent to help elect conservative Brad Schimel, but only CBS cared to mention liberal Susan Crawford has her own billionaire donors in Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker (D) and…

With the markets rebounding and egg prices cratering, the networks were deprived an opportunity to foist their recession porn upon their viewers. They had no trouble settling on a new consensus top story, though, given their hysterical coverage of the Trump administration’s decision over the weekend to deport suspected Tren de Aragua and other gangbangers to a Salvadoran supermax.

During a briefing Monday afternoon otherwise dominated by probing questions about the weekend deportation flights of dangerous illegal immigrants who belong to the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA), White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt took a moment to zing the French after a French member of the European Parliament demanded the U.S. return the Statue of Liberty.

In today’s DOGE-deranged news environment, stories seeking to spotlighting the adversity endured by federal workers often draw top billing. A new CBS Evening News report goes to that well again, and manufactures a link between the DOGE buyouts and Musk’s purchase of Twitter, in an attempt to imply malfeasance.

In the wake of President Trump’s Thursday press conference on the deadly and tragic mid-air collision at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA), CBS senior White House correspondent Ed O’Keefe decried Trump for “jumping to conclusions” by saying diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs may have played a role in the incident. But near the end of his segment, O’Keefe started…

On Thursday morning and after some cockamamie, tone-deaf reactions Wednesday night to President Biden’s farewell address, the major broadcast networks chose to double down with empty stenography for power with one network going to nonsensical links suggesting Biden could one day be compared to President George Washington, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Lyndon Johnson as one of the country’s…

ABC, CBS, and NBC broke in Wednesday night for President Biden’s farewell address and, while they were never in total awe like they were with Barack Obama, they still showed their stripes in cheering the “advocate for working people” giving “very personal” “speech for the history books” and delivering an “extraordinary” message about the decline of “fact-checking” and an “oligarchy...that…

With the final White House press briefing on Wednesday afternoon, we’re looking back at the best hardballs, tussles, and moments over the hundreds of Biden administration press briefings, primarily helmed by Jen Psaki and Karine Jean-Pierre. The story of the Biden White House press corps is far more complex than Fox News – led by Peter Doocy and Jacqui Heinrich – asking challenging questions…

As the Trace Adkins song goes, you’re going to miss this, you’re going to want this back. Deep down, that’s surely the way at least some feel about the bizarre, entertaining, meandering, only occasionally informative, and stammering White House press briefings in 2024 under Karine Jean-Pierre. With part one having covered 10 moments from January to May, this blog contains the second 10…

The Regime Media, with just weeks remaining in the Biden presidency, appear uncertain as to how to cover one of his big legacy items: the commutation of 37 out of 40 federal death row inmates. Evening news coverage ranged from treating it as an afterthought to making it all about Biden. 

On Friday afternoon, Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre held the first White House briefing in 15 days and the first since President Biden went back on his word of denying he’d pardon his son, Hunter. Needless to say, the press corps came prepared to express their disgust with Jean-Pierre and the President making them look like fools and undermining their aura of respect for the rule of law.…
