Ed O'Keefe

POLL: What Was the Worst Media Quote of the Week?

Wednesday’s White House press briefing featured a wild detour away from reality when CBS senior White House and campaign correspondent Ed O’Keefe — who’s one of the least-expected elite media journalists to ask something crazy — wondered aloud to press Secretary Karoline Leavitt if President Trump has ever been falsely accused of being a racist.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio delivered an address before the Munich Security Conference that was warmly received and met with rapturous applause. And if you were waiting for the Elitist Media’s Sunday shows’ analyses, you might think the speech never happened at all. 

Despite not having had the broadcast rights to Super Bowl LX, Monday’s CBS Mornings spent a heaping 14 minutes and 35 seconds fawning over Bad Bunny’s halftime performance as “a heartfelt message of togetherness and love,” “dope,” filled with “electricity,” “spectacular,” and full of “unity...and we are one America” and smeared anyone and everyone who disliked it as opposing those…

Vice President JD Vance took to the White House Briefing Room podium Thursday afternoon to answer questions about Wednesday’s deadly ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis, but not before launching into one of multiple take downs for the “irresponsible” liberal media outlets acting as “agents of propaganda” and “lying about” both the ICE officer and the facts borne out in multiple videos.

On Monday at Mar-a-Lago, President Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about several issues including the cease fire in Gaza, and the missile threat from Iran. The recent U.S. strike against Venezuela also came up at the press conference after the meeting. And there was some interesting coverage going on over at CNN both pre and post meeting.

While all three networks went hard in the paint Wednesday morning against President Trump and painted the economy as in turmoil, ABC’s Good Morning America was particular vicious with an entirely negative story and zero recognition of how economic indicators have improved vis-à-vis the Biden economy.

Since a July 7 Justice Department memo declared an “exhaustive review” of the Jeffrey Epstein case found he died by suicide and there was no evidence of a “client list,” ABC, CBS, and NBC have treated the so-called “Epstein Files” as the new Russiagate, submerging President Trump with a stunning 821 minutes of coverage on ABC, CBS, and NBC.

On Wednesday, CBS Mornings and NBC’s Today predictably served as clapping seals in celebrating Jack Schlossberg — the grandson of John F. Kennedy and thus royalty on the left — launching a bid for a Manhattan-area House seat despite having only been an “influencer” and a self-described provocateur on social media. In other words, he’s never had a real job.

On Wednesday morning, ABC, CBS, and NBC were riding high and drunk on power after seeing their preferred candidates sweep with socialist Zohran Mamdani’s “astonishing surge” in New York City and Democrats Mikie Sherrill in New Jersey, and Abigail Spanberger in Virginia romping to huge wins, declaring this a GOP “bloodbath” and “glimmer of hope” for Democrats in 2026 with “a guidebook” to…

Barring a massive upset on Tuesday, communist Zohran Madmani was headed to a victory in the New York City mayoral race and was greeted with fawning coverage in the elitist, liberal media on their flagship Tuesday morning news shows, declaring him as someone “snowballing” his “way towards history” with a “focus on affordability” and “robust” and “savvy social media-driven campaign.”

For years, Biden White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was arguably the most reliable source of entertainment for NewsBusters (and viral posts on X). Her press briefings were a heavyweight bout with the English language. And, when she announced in June she would be writing a book entitled Independent about having left the Democrat Party, we made a promise we’d read it and…

Despite tough questions from fill-in co-hosts Kelly O’Grady and Ed O’Keefe, Monday’s CBS Mornings Plus chose to dedicate the “By the Way” segment — a block meant to do a deeper dive on one of the major headlines but often becomes a free block for liberal narratives — to a supposedly viral guest column from a rural Virginia factory worker lamenting the rise in cost of living and the…

CBS News is once again at the center of a self-inflicted editorial practices firestorm, after excising significant portions of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s response to a question regarding “Maryland Dad” Kilmar Abrego García. CBS’s latest cooked interview left a recitation of the allegations against Abrego García on the cutting room floor.
