Nightmare: ABC, CBS Lose It After Trump Holds Naturalization Ceremony

August 26th, 2020 4:46 AM

Between Senator Tim Scott’s well-received Monday night speech, stories on both nights from everyday Americans, and remarks from rising stars, Tuesday’s RNC festivities resulted in a no good, awful, very bad day for the broadcast networks.

After Encouraging Riots, Cuomo and Lemon Fear It’s Helping Trump Win

August 26th, 2020 2:34 AM

Back in May and June, NewsBusters reported on how CNN personalities Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon had strongly encouraged violence in the streets in support of the Marxist Black Lives Matter organization.

Nets Hit Panic Button: NBC Host Upset Melania Condemned Looters?!

August 26th, 2020 1:00 AM

Late Tuesday night, the “big three” broadcast networks were trapped between a rock and a hard place. ABC, CBS, and NBC found themselves begrudgingly praising First Lady Melania Trump’s 2020 RNC speech and while they did plenty of that, they found an escape hatch by using her speech to broadly attack all speakers before her on Monday and Tuesday. Meanwhile, NBC Nightly News anchor…

Night Two of RNC Disrupted 4 Times by CNN, Only Once for Dems

August 26th, 2020 12:20 AM

Republican National Convention has become a proving ground for how inconsistent the CNN was in terms of treating both political parties fairly. As NewsBusters’ associate editor Scott Whitlock documented last week, the anti-Trump news outlet only interrupted night two of the Democratic National Convention once. But for night two of the RNC, CNN disrupted the proceedings four times to whine…

Just hours after the GOP kicked off its 2020 convention on Monday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi came out swinging while calling President Trump and his fellow Republicans “enemies of the state.” People in the “mainstream media” ignored the California Democrat’s remark even though they had provided wall-to-wall coverage regarding comments from Trump and Congressional Republicans when they used…

On Sunday's Velshi show, MSNBC invited the network's favorite kind of Republican -- the kind who votes for Democrats -- onto the show in the form of ex-EPA administrator Christine Todd Whitman to join host Ali Velshi in trashing the Donald Trump administration over its opposition to global warming alarmism.

What goes on behind the doors of families is private, right? Not at Univision, where the premise is only valid if it concerns the families of Democrats. Consider this report on Kellyanne Conway´s departure from the White House that aired over the network’s morning kaffeeklatsch Despierta America, which centered on her daughter Claudia, a minor -- a whole three and a half minutes of…

WATCH Nets Perfectly Recite Biden Campaign Attacks on RNC

August 25th, 2020 3:37 PM

It’s really amazing how often so-called “news” reports sound identical to press releases from the Democratic Party. On Tuesday, network morning show coverage of the first night of the Republican National Convention was quite literally composed of Biden campaign talking points smearing the event. Reporters on ABC and CBS even brazenly announced that fact to viewers.

Nets Annoyed There’s No ‘Hope’ at ‘Aggressive,’ ‘Dark,’ ‘Red Meat’ RNC

August 25th, 2020 3:28 AM

In contrast to their reactions last week to night one of the 2020 DNC, the “big three” networks of ABC, CBS, and NBC were dismayed, perturbed, and upset by night one of the virtual 2020 RNC that they deemed a night that was almost entirely “apocalyptic,” “dark,” and thus the opposite of “upbeat and optimistic.” Along with their reaction to Senator Tim Scott’s speech, various network…

After Some Praise, ABC, CBS TRASH Scott From the Left on BLM, COVID

August 25th, 2020 1:59 AM

Following Monday’s 2020 RNC address from Senator Tim Scott (R-SC), ABC and CBS had praise for Scott’s “classic,” “compelling,”  “optimistic,” “personal,” and “positive” remarks, but they pivoted to smearing Scott by appearing to question his commitment to race relations. His crime?
