Weir Gives Lame Correction After Claiming Repealed EPA Rule Was a Typo
One night after he incorrectly accused EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin of incompetence by claiming he put out an incomplete press release, CNN climate correspondent Bill Weir returned to The Source with Kaitlin Collins on Thursday to admit he got it wrong and what he thought was a typo or placeholder was a real EPA regulation, but not before he suggested that he had good reason to…
Weir Embarrasses Himself By Claiming Repealed EPA Rule is a Typo
Early Thursday morning, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin noticed that CNN climate correspondent spread fake news the previous evening on The Source with Kaitlan Collins when he accused the administration of being in such a hurry to repeal regulations they incompetently put out press releases with typos and placeholders in the headlines.

On Tuesday’s installment of the White House press briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt praised the changes owner Jeff Bezos is making at The Washington Post, gave the “new media” seat to Saagar Enjeti of Breaking Points, and faced tough questions from across the spectrum on the economy from Fox News, CNN, Politico, and even the Associated Press.
PBS Journo: Axing Education Dept Hurts 'Poor and People Of Color' Most
PBS News Hour White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez joined the Wednesday edition of CNN’s Inside Politics to freak out about President Donald Trump’s plans to close, or at least downsize, the Department of Education. As Barron-Lopez tells it, Trump is trying to privatize public education, and shuttering the department will start a domino effect that will lead states to…
FLASHBACK: When the Media Adored ‘Jesus Christ of Our Era’ Elon Musk
Some of us are old enough to remember when journalists praised Musk as a “real-life Iron Man,” “a visionary,” and even “the Jesus Christ of our era.” Back then, every SpaceX rocket launch drew more media adulation than a Barack Obama speech, with journalists describing the company’s breakthroughs as “glorious,” “stunning,” and once, even “a miracle.”
CNN Boosts Dem’s Conspiracy of Musk Spying for His Private Company
CNN was in pretty typical form Monday – absorbed with Elon Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), and still quite comfortable making up and promoting unsubstantiated conspiracy theories about him on the spot. On Inside Politics, Dana Bash interviewed former CFPB director Rohit Chopra, ostensibly on Musk’s plan to cut the agency, and Chopra conjectured wildly about…
FLASHBACK: Nets Praised Faltering Biden’s ‘Feisty,’ ‘Fiery’ 2024 SOTU
The liberal media had a predictably sour reaction to President Trump’s speech to Congress. Yet one year ago, these same networks used Joe Biden’s 2024 State of the Union speech to dishonestly proclaim the obviously faltering 81-year-old was brimming with energy and ready for a second term.
CNN Revises Trump’s Transgender Mice Fact-Check, Navarro Ignores
A discussion on Wednesday’s CNN NewsNight took a turn so outrageous that even CNN’s own fact-checkers would object. During the discussion, political commentator Ana Navarro accused President Trump of “making up stories about transgender mice” despite CNN’s own website saying otherwise.
MELTDOWN: Darcy Mad ‘Insidious,’ ‘Slick’ Jennings Nearing New CNN Deal
Former CNN media reporter Oliver Darcy used his far-left newsletter site Status on Thursday night to suffer a weapons-grade meltdown over rumors that our friend and CNN senior political commentator Scott Jennings — perhaps the best current articulator of conservative principles — was not only close to a new contract to stay with CNN, but “receive a substantial pay increase” despite being a “…
FLASHBACK: ‘There’s Only So Much Biden Can Do’ About the Border Crisis
During his Tuesday night address to a joint session of Congress, President Trump touted recently-released record-low February border crossing numbers, boasting: “All we really needed [to secure the border] was a new president.” Indeed, the Trump administration does appear to have almost completely eliminated illegal border crossings, solely through executive action and enforcing current…
NewsBusters Podcast: Unhinged Wallace Dominates Trump Speech Hot Takes
What a difference a year makes. Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro and I compared the liberal media’s reactions to Joe Biden’s final State of the Union last year to Tuesday night’s address to Congress by President Trump and found a surprising change from fawnings (in the case of Ol’ Joe) to exhaustion. Sure, they hated Trump’s speech, ranging from his policies to his showmanship with ordinary…
Shermichael Singleton Makes CNN Face Democrats’ ‘Pettiness’
In a refreshing turn of events on Wednesday, CNN was forced to sit and listen to some calm, level-headed, and fair commentary on actual news on their show, thanks to Republican advisor Shermichael Singleton. On News Central, Singleton broke up a routine CNN pity party when he offered some factually and contextually derived comments on President Trump’s address to Congress the…
Jennings Gets Axelrod to Admit Dems Looked Bad During Trump’s Speech
You know Tuesday night’s address to the Joint Session of Congress was a good night for President Trump because the liberal media didn’t have much in terms of rage-fueled declarations against it. In fact, Republican Scott Jennings managed to get his CNN colleague and former Obama advisor David Axelrod to admit that his fellow Democrats were the ones who looked bad at the end of the night.
Scott Jennings Disrupts CNN’s Storyline, Points to Trump’s ‘Success’
Scott Jennings, former special assistant to George W. Bush, provided his usual, much-needed touch of sanity to CNN Sunday morning, on State of the Union. As a panel hosted by Dana Bash railed against the Trump administration in a by now pretty true-to-form way, Jennings forced them to listen as he confronted them with actual facts about the current state of affairs, and the proper…
