‘Throwing Money’; Nets SLAM GOP Convention, ‘Dubious’ $5k Dividend
On Thursday, the flagship broadcast network morning shows of ABC, CBS, and NBC panned the GOP’s midterm convention and President Trump’s Wednesday night speech, mocking the scene amid Trump’s “record-low” approval ratings, Trump “dismiss[ing] concerns about the cost of living,” and his “dubious” offer of $5,000 to every American if Republicans win in November as a case of “throwing money at a…
CNN Claims GOP's Attacks On El-Sayed Echo Bush's 'Menacing' 2004 Ads
Donald Trump and George W. Bush may be two very different kinds of Republican presidents, but according to CNN political director David Chalian on Thursday’s Inside Politics, Trump’s attack on Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed echoes the “menacing aspect” of Bush’s 2004 campaign against John Kerry for simply pointing out the radicalness in their respective opponents.
The David Duke Standard — The Hasan Piker Exception
Remember the media firestorm in 2016 when Donald Trump supposedly failed to denounce former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke? Trump, appearing on CNN, claimed he did not know enough about Duke to disavow him. Trump later blamed a faulty earpiece and repudiated Duke and the KKK. But the episode became Exhibit A for those who accused Trump of using racial “dog whistles.”
Kimmel Mourns FCC Compelling Him to Put Talarico Interview on YouTube
Ahead of November’s midterm elections, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel wants to do his part to help Democrats win by interviewing Texas Senate candidate James Talarico.

CNN's David Urban SLAMS Daniel Dale for Bashing Trump Over 9/11 Event
On Tuesday, President Trump stood with first responders, presented the Presidential Medal of Freedom posthumously to the family of 9/11 hero Welles Crowther, and vowed to "never forget" those lost. Naturally, the liberal media covered the event by trashing Trump's presentation, something that didn't fly with both a Republican and a Democratic guest on CNN's The Source with Kaitlan Collins.…
ABC, CBS Skip President Trump Bestowing Top Honor on 9/11 Hero
Ahead of the Republican midterm convention, President Trump held a moving event at the White House Ellipse to honor those murdered nearly 25 years ago on September 11, 2001.

HUH?! AP Claims Strong August Jobs Report ‘Causing Problems’ for Trump

ABC’s 'Bona Fide News' Show Plays Footsie With Trump Affair Conspiracy
ABC News’s The View continued to thumb their nose at the Federal Communications Commission amid the ongoing review of their purported status as a “bona fide news program.” During their Wednesday episode, they alluded to an unsupported conspiracy theory started by Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff (GA), which suggested President Trump and his assistant Natalie Harp were having an affair. They even…
Lunacy Begins with Zero Fear of Fact Checkers
Leftists and Democrats say the craziest things, and they can do it without fearing that a practitioner of the “fact checking” arts is going to label them “Pants On Fire” liars on the internet. Occasionally, I will tweet these outrageous statements under the title “Zero Fear of Fact Checkers.”
CBS’s 9/11 25th Anniversary Report Plays Like a Taliban Ball Spike
Recent reporting ahead of the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on September 11th, 2001 reminds us that CBS is not even close to being the right-wing caricature its media hall monitor critics say it is. Over the course of three reports, the pattern seems to be to absolve President Biden of anything to do with the fall of Afghanistan due to his hasty pullout.
OMISSION: Networks SILENT on Canada-China Military Talks

CNN's Raju Gives No Midterm Perspective To Trump's Approval Numbers
This week, the first ever RNC Midterm Convention will be held in Dallas, and as described by the GOP, it's, "a primetime showcase for President Trump’s success, candidates, and causes".
