CNN This Morning host Kasie Hunt gushes over how "beautiful" Kamala Harris is. Even when former Biden comms director Kate Beningfield suggests that the relative beauty of Harris and Trump is the last thing on the mind of swing voters trying to decide who to vote for, Hunt insists that looks actually are a very important political factor. Beningfield bends to her host, agreeing that Harris is "…

[Last] week, alleged comedian Stephen Colbert had on CNN's Kaitlan Collins to discuss the 2024 presidential election. In the middle of the interview, Colbert began to ask Collins a question, in all sincerity: "I know you guys are objective over (at CNN), you just report the news as it is." Colbert, presumably, expected his audience — all Kamala Harris fans, since Colbert is the most left-…

The Big Three networks have delivered an unprecedented boost of positive publicity to Vice President Kamala Harris during the first four weeks of her presidential campaign.

CBS vice presidential debate co-moderator and host of Face the Nation Margaret Brennan offered an unqualified and evidence-free defense of Vice President Kamala Harris- specifically, her widely panned price control proposals, which former President Donald Trump and many others have labeled as “communism”.

Sunday political affairs programming switched gears as the networks prepare to cover (or fawn over) this week’s Democratic National Convention in Chicago. With the spotlight on the Democratic ticket, there was nary a mention of the various and sundry scandals surrounding the Democratic vice presidential candidate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.

The blog criticizes Politico and other media outlets for ignoring potential jury tampering in Donald Trump's Manhattan hush money trial. It notes that a Facebook user claimed his cousin, a juror, voted for conviction before the verdict was announced but the issue has since been forgotten. The blog singles out Erica Orden's article on Trump seeking a sentencing delay until after the election,…

The Saturday morning editions of the network morning shows took different approaches to Vice President Kamala Harris’s radical proposal to install price controls on food. ABC’s Good Morning America and NBC’s Today barely touched it, portraying it as if it were just another proposal, while CBS Saturday Morning was more willing to say the proposal was more politics…

New York Times columnist and PBS News Hour theoretical conservative David Brooks was shocked on Friday’s show that “a responsible Democratic candidate” would endorse Soviet-like price controls on food.

The PBS News Hour promoted more liberal election fear-mongering, this time from the ostensibly objective but actually leftist American Bar Association. Anchor Amna Nawaz was eager to push its fear against the threat of authoritarianism in America under a second Trump term as a bipartisan concern by pairing former Obama DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson with retired "conservative" judge…

A shocking exchange occurred on Univision’s Linea de Fuego (Firing Line), during host Luis Carlos Vélez’s exchange with Maca Casado, Director of Hispanic Media for the Harris-Walz campaign. Under pressure from Velez over the Harris campaign’s use of fake headlines in their Google ads, Casado flippantly told Velez that this was pretty commonplace.

When discussing the media’s biases, we often talk about biases by omission or commission. But tonight we must also consider bias by zone-flooding, wherein the media avoid talking about something potentially detrimental to Democrats by backfilling newscast time with nonsense about Republicans.

MSNBC’s Joy Reid is terrified of religion intersecting with politics and is constantly worrying on The ReidOut about the threat of “Christian Nationalism.” On Wednesday, though, she found an exception for Kamala Harris supporters who mix religion and politics because they are like the “Christian pastors who led the civil rights movement.”

On Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle predicts that Kamala Harris will finish Trump off in their debate. She's "a very sophisticated, very intelligent woman, and she hammers him like a prosecutor and doesn't let him off the hook, he will go -- I can't say it -- But something will snap in him and that will be it."  

MSNBC’s Alex Wagner joined CBS’s Stephen Colbert for Wednesday’s taping of The Late Show and somehow managed to claim that President Joe Biden dropping out of the presidential race was the high the country needed after the low of the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Wagner also managed to heap copious amounts of praise on the “joyful” personalities of Kamala Harris and Tim…
