The “Big Three” broadcast networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC offered an entire plate of bias Wednesday on their lead morning newscasts, with each of them pulling hard for Texas to go blue with James Talarico, CBS Mornings misleading viewers about Kansas and Nebraska Senate seats, and both ABC and NBC ignoring an anti-Semitic ad in Michigan blaming Jews for an increase in grocery bills.
ABC Seems to Imply MAGA Could Commit Violence Against Election Workers
In a case of bizarre story placement during the second hour (and in a newscast seemingly barren of staff and two extra rounds of news briefs), ABC’s Good Morning America diverged from its usual behavior of playing corporate whore for Disney overlords to add a fourth midterms segment that strongly implied Georgia election workers and elsewhere could face threats to their lives on Tuesday from…

FALSE: ABC Claims El-Sayed Ties to Islamists Are ‘Without Evidence’

Networks Use Trump’s Alaska Trip as Proof of GOP DOOM in November
On Wednesday, the “Big Three” of ABC, CBS, and NBC spent time on their lead morning shows kicking dirt on President Trump going to Alaska as little more than a sign of impending GOP doom come November 3, continuing to show their political ignorance of how non-presidential elections work.
