STUDY: Nets Blast State Election Laws, Ignore Dem Election Takeover
An analysis of ABC, CBS and NBC evening news coverage found 52 minutes of airtime on a variety of Republican-sponsored state election laws, vs. a meager 2 minutes, 40 seconds for Democrats’ so-called “For the People” Act. Coverage of the GOP-sponsored laws was a stupendous 96% negative coverage; there was zero criticism of the Democrats’ bill, which would destroy a host of state election rules…
Nets Swoon for Biden: ‘Cementing the Fractured’ NATO Bond Trump Hurt
Despite the fact that former President Trump had shaken the NATO alliance out of their complacency and reliance on the U.S. for their collective protection, the broadcast networks (ABC, CBS, and NBC) gave President Biden a hero’s welcome.

Over the course of the week, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar (D-MN) had been drawing bipartisan outrage after comparing the United States and Israel to terrorist organizations like the Taliban and Hamas.

Nets Obsessed With GOP 'Civil War' Can’t Be Bothered By Dem Divide
For the past couple of days, moderate Democratic Senators Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona were experiencing the full wrath of the far-left wing of their party after the pair refused to do away with the filibuster and pass the deceptively titled “For the People Act.” But the same evening newscasts that were obsessed with stoking the so-called “Civil War” in the…
ABC, CBS Ignore Harris’s Border Blunder, Tout Her Snapping at Critics
As NewsBusters documented on Tuesday, Vice President Kamala Harris delivered a colossal blunder when pressed by NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt on why she hadn’t visited the U.S.-Mexico border despite being the point person on the crisis. Her bewildering comment about how she had not been to Europe either was completely ignored by ABC’s World News Tonight, while the …
Nets Ignore Home of GOP Rep. Mace Getting Vandalized By Leftists
Over the Memorial Day holiday, the Charleston, South Carolina home of Republican Congresswoman Nancy Mace was vandalized by leftist extremists who spray-painted their slogans, symbols, their demands, and vulgarities all over the property for her young children and neighbors to see.

Nets CENSOR Scandalous Fauci E-Mails Showing What He Really Knew
Thanks to the use of the Freedom of Information Act, the American people gained access this week to thousands of Dr. Anthony Fauci’s e-mails and revelations that he knew the National Institutes of Health may have funded gain-of-function research for coronaviruses, that COVID-19 may have come from a lab, and that masks didn’t work. And in an attempt to cover up the truth, ABC’s World News…

Nets Skip Sex Offenders at the Border, Polls Show Narrative Sundered
When it came to immigration, President Biden’s left flank was completely covered by the broadcast networks that brushed the worst-than-ever border crisis under the rug. But as new Fox News polling showed on Wednesday, Biden’s weak handling of the crisis was making an edge rush right and breaking through the narrative. All of this came as ABC, CBS, and NBC skipped new reporting on how Border…
Are You Deaf? ABC Ignored 30 Gunshots in George Floyd Square
On the one-year anniversary of the murder of George Floyd, the defund the police crowd saw the results of their policy play out Tuesday, as people gathering in the George Floyd Square autonomous zone in Minneapolis were sent scrambling for cover when a gunman opened fire.

Nets Duck Border Patrol Capturing Wanted Sex Offender/MS-13 Member
As two NewsBusters studies had found earlier this month, the evening newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC had been showing less and less of President Biden’s border crisis until they weren’t covering it at all.

ABC Nurses Biden’s Flop With Israel, Ignores Egypt Taking the Lead
