Sharpton’s New Lean Forward Ad: America Only Ensures Justice for

May 7th, 2013 5:15 PM
There are times when I really think I live in different country than liberal media members. Take Al Sharpton for example who in his most recent Lean Forward ad for MSNBC said that America isn’t living up to the Pledge of Allegiance’s creed of “One nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all” (video follows with transcript and commentary):

MSNBC’s S.E. Cupp Provides Viewers Some Much Needed Perspective On G

May 7th, 2013 5:05 PM
Ever since MSNBC finally chose to cover the murder trial of abortionist Kermit Gosnell, the majority of MSNBC hosts have used the case as a disgusting opportunity to slam conservatives who want to regulate abortion clinics. Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough was the first MSNBCer to actually mention the case, expressing disgust and outrage over the abortionist's practices. Today, which marks…

Except for 'Morning Joe,' MSNBC Ignores S.C. Dem’s Racist Attack On

May 7th, 2013 11:43 AM

We here at NewsBusters are often extremely critical of MSNBC’s Morning Joe as it often sets the agenda for the daily bias on the cable network. There are a few times, such as the Gosnell infanticide trial, when Morning Joe will actually prompt the rest of the liberal network to begin covering a story that it had previously ignored. Unfortunately that's not the case with Dick Harpootlian's…

SC Election Day: Mika Tries To Stop Scarborough From Mentioning Dem's

May 7th, 2013 8:02 AM
On Election Day in South Carolina, as Republican Mark Sanford seeks to regain his old congressional seat, Mika Brzezinski did her best to stop Joe Scarborough from mentioning an ugly slur that the Chairman of the state's Democratic party had made against Republican Governor Nikki Haley.

Chris Matthews: Biden Predicting Democrat Win in South Carolina Tuesda

May 6th, 2013 6:22 PM
It’s not often that people on MSNBC have anything bad to say about a Democrat, especially a member of the Obama administration. That’s why it was odd to see Hardball’s Chris Matthews Monday wonder if Vice President Joe Biden predicting Elizabeth Colbert Busch will win Tuesday’s special Congressional election in South Carolina is a jinx.

Does He Listen to Himself? Matthews Compares NRA to Nazis, Decries Use

May 6th, 2013 6:18 PM
Apparently not even Chris Matthews listens to Chris Matthews. On Monday's Hardball, the liberal anchor compared the speeches at the National Rifle Association's 2013 convention to the Nazis. Three minutes later, he decried the use of Nazi comparisons. On the same program, Matthews insisted that the Republican Party has forgiven the assassination  of GOP President Abraham Lincoln. As he played…

May 6th, 2013 5:16 PM

MSNBC's Hayes: 'Far-Right Fringe' NRA 'Might Be Spelling Their Own Dem

May 6th, 2013 2:40 PM
On Friday's All In show, with the words "The Sickness" displayed on screen behind him, MSNBC host Chris Hayes began the show with a commentary in which he tagged the NRA as a "far-right fringe organization" that "might be spelling their own demise" by celebrating the defeat of the universal background check proposal. Hayes:

S.C. Dem Chairman Levels Racist Attack on Gov. Haley; 'Morning Joe' Be

May 6th, 2013 11:58 AM
It’s bad enough that MSNBC is extremely liberal, but when they acknowledge their biases but don’t attempt to correct them, it shows how incorrigible they are. Take Monday's Morning Joe, where the panelists discussed offensive comments made on Friday by outgoing South Carolina Democratic Party chairman Dick Harpootlian. During his speech, which Vice President Joe Biden was in attendance to…

MSNBC's Tamron Hall Is Moonlighting as an Obama Education Department P

May 6th, 2013 7:22 AM
In 2005, USA Today uncovered the scandal that black columnist Armstrong Williams was paid to promote Bush’s Education Department initiatives. In 2013, it’s never a scandal when MSNBC anchors promote Obama’s Education Department initiatives. It’s another Great Leap Forward for government-media synchronicity. Today at 4 pm, after her daily on-air hour is up, MSNBC anchor Tamron Hall is serving…

Lawrence O’Donnell: Obama’s Tax Rate ‘In the High Twenties’; N

May 4th, 2013 12:45 PM
It really is amazing how liberal media members regularly make false statements on national television with total impunity. Consider MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell who twice on HBO's Real Time Friday arrogantly claimed that the Obamas' federal income tax rate was "in the high twenties" (video follows with transcribed lowlights and commentary):

Democratic Activist James Carville Denies MSNBC Hosts Are 'Far Left

May 4th, 2013 6:12 AM
What's the difference between someone with a “far-left” philosophy and a person who's a “liberal?” Bill O'Reilly received an interesting answer to that question while interviewing Democratic strategist James Carville during Thursday night's edition of “The O'Reilly Factor.” Carville said that far-left people, including the protesters who clashed with police in Seattle on May 1, are criminals…

WashPost Media Blogger Slices and Dices NARAL Leader's Claim They Were

May 3rd, 2013 7:16 PM
Washington Post media blogger Erik Wemple spends a lot of time picking apart Fox broadcasts, but he was stunned by a Thomas Roberts interview on MSNBC with the new leader of NARAL Pro-Choice America, Ilyse Hogue. She claimed “we were the first out of the gate to call attention to this case.” Like a news butler, Roberts set her up to make that bizarre claim and then moved on to the next…

MSNBC's O'Donnell Slams 'Merchants of Death' Gun Makers After Child De

May 3rd, 2013 5:24 PM
On Thursday's The Last Word, MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell attacked the owners of the gun maker Crickett as "merchants of death" after a five-year-old boy in Kentucky, without adult supervision, used one of their guns to kill his younger sister: "The names I want you to know are the merchants of death, the merchants of this death, the guys who made and sold the rifle that killed this two-year-…
