Despite warnings to the contrary, ABC News continues to inject American politics into their coverage of the papacy. The most Trump-averse of the legacy networks continues to wishcast their desire that Pope Leo XIV become an anti-Trump Resistance figure. 

In both 2005 and 2013, when Popes Benedict XVI and Francis were elected, American journalists reacted to each Pope’s elevation by complaining about their traditional conservative attitudes while lobbying for the Church to “liberalize” on a host of issues.

Amazing. Over there in Rome the Cardinals of the Catholic Church have, astonishing the world, elected an American. That would be one Cardinal Robert Prevost, elected as the heir to the chair of St. Peter. The Cardinal, born in Chicago, is now Pope Leo XIV. (For those not into Roman numerals, that would be Leo the 14th.)

While the rest of the liberal media were trying to convince the American public that Pope Leo XIV was one of theirs, the purported Catholics of ABC’s The View were fearful that he would abide by church doctrine. They were upset by the idea that he would continue the church’s understanding that marriage was between a man and woman, while an anti-Catholic voice tried to smear him with…

The Thursday editions of the late night comedy shows truly proved that they are simply MSNBC with more jokes. Like that network, they appreciated that the first American pope, the newly elected Leo XIV, has criticized President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance on immigration. The fact that he would rebuke their views on abortion, gender, and sexuality were inconvenient things to be…

The most Biden-sycophantic network newscast was unable to help itself on the day of the election of the first American pope. During a roundup of presidential reactions to Pope Leo XIV, correspondent Rachel Scott went to a tired but true hook: “Joe Biden, devout Catholic.”

After proving themselves to be his greatest sycophants with their gush fest of an interview last September, former President Biden reciprocated by giving the liberal ladies of ABC’s The View his first post-presidency interview. Of course, as Democratic propagandists, they swaddled him in love and softball questions, largely teeing up questions about controversies in easy-to-knock-down…

The Thursday three network morning shows of ABC’s Good Morning America, NBC’s Today, and CBS Mornings could not and therefore did not downplay the violence that occurred overnight at Columbia University as pro-Palestinian agitators occupied Butler Library during finals week. However, they did manage to sanitize the message used to justify that violence, as it was…

The legacy media appear to be stuck in this doom loop where they deliberately omit covering certain stories after embarrassing themselves fawning over the latest immigration poster boy du jour whether it’s “Maryland Dad” or pro-Hamas Columbia activist Mohsen Mahdawi. The latest omission proves all the more embarrassing for the legacies.

Late Thursday night, President Trump moved via executive order to defund far-left networks National Public Radio (NPR) and PBS on the TV side, ordering the Corporation for Public Broadcasting cease direct and indirect taxpayer funding in addition to government agencies ceasing federal grants. A move decades in the making, ABC’s Good Morning America and CBS Mornings were…

Over the next couple of years, the late night comedy shows will become a stomping ground for 2028 Democratic presidential hopefuls and on Thursday, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel helped kick start that process by welcoming Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker to the show. Together the two would implicitly accuse Republicans of racism by claiming they “know full well” Abraham Lincoln would be a Democrat today and…

Just over a year ago, in April 2024, ABC News’s The View announced that they had “stopped asking” President Trump to be on the show and said they had banned election deniers. But what if the moderator of the show was an election denier? During Thursday’s opening segment, Whoopi Goldberg suggested that Trump had rigged the 2024 presidential election.

With damning new evidence piling up in the case of deported MS-13 gangbanger Kilmar Abrego García and the media trapped defending his gang tattoos, there is a clear need for a new exemplar to promote against the perceived excesses of Trump immigration policy. Tonight, a new consensus poster boy may have emerged in Mohsen Mahdawi.

After begging on the air for her to come on the show, the liberal ladies of ABC’s The View welcomed far-left extremist “comedian” Amber Ruffin during Wednesday’s episode. Omitting the fact that she suggested President Trump and his supporters were “a bunch of murderers” and not human beings, The View cast defended Ruffin as just using her right to free speech and suggested…
