Nets Dismiss Jobs Destroyed By Biden’s Ban on New Oil & Gas Drilling
With the stroke of a pen Wednesday, President Biden wiped out what will be a plethora of jobs in the oil and natural gas industry when he signed an executive order banning new drilling on federal lands. The ban was spun as just a “pause” and a “freeze” by the broadcast networks as they tried to downplay and dismiss concerns of lost jobs, suggesting they could just get new ones at a time when…

One Last Time: Bye-Bye Tom Brokaw!
On Friday, Tom Brokaw formally retired from NBC News. If you are confused it’s because he already had one retirement when he vacated the NBC Nightly News anchor chair for Brian Williams back in 2004. But like a college professor who awkwardly still hung out with kids decades younger than him he hung around the NBC offices in an Anchor Emeritus role. We here at NewsBusters offer on…

NBC Warns Reopening States Kills, Gawks at Restaurants Shutting Down
If we’ve learned anything about the news media during the pandemic, it’s that they care more about gawking at people on TV instead of genuine, unvarnished compassion for those suffering (especially business owners). And that notion was quite evident on Tuesday’s NBC Nightly News when, out of one side of their mouth, the network decried states for deciding to reopen. And with the other…

Biden’s Network Lapdogs Go Gaga for His German Shepherds at WH

Day 1: NBC Lies About Psaki’s 'Great Reputation,' Omit Edited Video
The Biden administration was only a few hours old on Wednesday and NBC Nightly News was already trying to gaslight their viewers.

NBC Doubles Down on Downplaying Violence of U.S.-Bound Caravan
On Monday, the broadcast networks ignored how a caravan of Honduran migrants fought with Guatemala police as they stormed their way into the country illegally.

Nets Ignore Violent Migrant Caravan Storming into Guatemala for U.S.
While the broadcast networks were busy stoking fears that members of the National Guard stationed in Washington, D.C. might launch an inside attack on the inauguration, they turned a blind eye to a caravan of Honduran migrants that violently stormed into Guatemala, fighting with local police. NBC Nightly News actually mentioned the caravan but ignored their violent border crossing.…

Chuck Todd: Can’t See Trump-Era as Anything But a 'Failed Presidency'
During NBC’s Sunday Today, political director Chuck Todd made it clear the network had had it with the last four years and were ready to move on to a President Joe Biden, the man they supported for president.

Nets Praise Biden’s Plan to ‘Rescue the Country,’ ‘Slow History Down’

ABC Rips First Lady’s Statement on Capitol Attack, Ignores Condolences
In a statement published Monday, First Lady Melania Trump shared her heartfelt condolences for those who lost their lives in last week’s deadly insurrection by Trump supporters at the Capitol. “With nearly every experience I have had, I found myself carrying many individual’s stories home with me in my heart,” she wrote on her time as the First Lady. But ABC’s vindictive White House…

Nets Ignored Cuomo Order Caused Hospitals to Toss Out Vaccine Doses
While broadcast networks like CBS were bashing Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) last week for shifting coronavirus vaccine doses from slow hospitals to locations that could get them out faster, all of the networks refused to cover how a ridiculous executive order from New York Governor Andrew Cuomo (D) was responsible for many doses getting binned, because they expired in freezers rather than…

Nets Push Bogus Claim Cops Harsher on BLM than Trump Supporters
The liberal media seem to think that just because Trump-supporting insurrectionists laid siege to the Capitol building on Wednesday, that they can just make up whatever facts they wanted to push their narrative. Thus was the case Thursday when ABC’s World News Tonight, CBS Evening News, and NBC Nightly News pushed the bogus claim that D.C. area law enforcement went…

CBS Tells McCarthy to Join Rioters, Ignored Bomb Planted at RNC
