The 2026 Pulitzer Prizes were awarded Monday afternoon and, after a four-year hiatus of holding a sitting president to account, they climbed back aboard their high horses to dole out seven prizes for Trump-bashing “journalism” to the Associated Press, the Chicago Tribune, the Miami Herald, The New York Times, Reuters, and The Washington Post.

Once prosperous, Cuba now faces severe shortages, with ration books offering little as store shelves sit empty. While AP covers the hardship, it avoids mentioning the main cause: decades of communism. Once abundant goods have vanished, leaving Cubans to struggle in a crumbling socialist system where even basic items must often be bought with U.S. dollars.

The Associated Press’ in-house climate doom prophet Seth Borenstein ran one of the most punch-drunk, inane pieces of low-brow eco-babbling propaganda to ever plague the publication’s website.

The AP summarized the SPLC’s indictment for defrauding donors and funding informants in extremist groups, but quickly framed it as possibly politically motivated by the Trump administration, reflecting a trend of increased editorializing and opinion in AP's news coverage.

Associated Press media reporter David Bauder found a fascinating nugget in an otherwise predictable lecture on media ethics from former Washington Post executive editor Marty Baron. For a moment, he admitted the press didn't focus on Joe Biden's cognitive decline, and that was "an ethical breakdown in our profession....Our credibility was damaged."

On Friday, Florida’s First District Court of Appeals agreed to hear oral arguments in Navy veteran Zackary Young’s two defamation cases against The Associated Press and Puck News. The hearing comes after Judge William Scott Henry of Florida’s 14th Judicial Circuit threw out both cases back in August 2025. Now, there were positive signs for Young that the First DCA could breathe new life into…

Watching the media scurry all over cyberspace to explain away why their TDS-afflicted economic catastrophe forecasts aren’t panning out is like watching a flock of chickens running around with their heads cut off, still clucking about how the sky is falling. Well, the sky just delivered surprisingly tame producer price inflation on the month, despite the ongoing Iran War.

Following a few years of proverbial snoozing while on the job and a 2025 celebrating itself for waking up at the last possible moment to Joe Biden’s cognitive decline, the White House Correspondents Association (WHCA) returned to form Monday with plenty of Trump bashing in its 2026 awards ahead of their April 25 dinner (which will be another pompous display of their Hindenburg-sized egos).

Google News all but excluded right-leaning news outlets from coverage of the U.S.-Israel war with Iran, with 183 left-leaning stories to just six right-leaning ones. 

Two or three outlets publishing lazy, vague headlines perhaps could be written off as a coincidence. But the sheer uniformity across all of these outlets suggests the lack of detail was deliberate, and likely politically motivated.

As NewsBusters was first to report last November, Navy veteran Zachary Young filed an appeal for his $453 million defamation suit against the Associated Press. Three months later and both sides have submitted their arguments to Florida’s First District Court of Appeals as they await a date for their oral arguments.

The Associated Press’s Melissa Goldin and Calvin Woodward were given the task of fact-checking President Trump’s Tuesday State of the Union address and, in some of their checks, they were so pedantic it bordered on self-parody.

A recent AP story admits that President Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration may have lowered the U.S. unemployment rate by reducing competition for jobs, contradicting previous claims that undocumented workers don’t affect American employment. The revelation surfaced as AP tried to downplay a strong January jobs report.

The horrific mass shooting as a high school in Canada wasn't just embarrassing to the Canadian establishment because of their passionate advocacy of gun control, especially so-called "assault weapons." It's another mass shooting committed by a transgender individual, and they just don't know how to handle it. They ended up sounding more sensitive to the T-Police than to the crime victims.
