The National Association of Black Journalists hosted an oh-so-polite sit-down with Kamala Harris, which displayed a dramatic double standard compared to the savaging of Donald Trump at the NABJ convention in July. The NABJ is a liberal interest group, like the NAACP.

The foiled second assassination attempt on Donald Trump wasn't uniformly treated as a serious security problem. We found major networks blaming Trump's hot talk on migrants and pets for his own assassins. They blamed him for not toning rhetoric down -- the flagrantly hostile networks! Curtis Houck explains how Sunday unfolded.…

Managing Editor Curtis Houck and Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro dove into an absurd Los Angeles Times profile celebrating ABC’s debate co-moderator Linsey Davis for, along with co-moderator David Muir, interjecting for so-called fact-checks of Donald Trump. The paper admitted they did so to avoid the blowback that CNN did after the June 27 debate …

ABC's presidential debate was remarkably skewed. Trump drew specific hardball questions. Harris drew vague, open-ended softballs. Trump was "fact checked" six times. Harris never was. Bill D'Agostino joins the show to underline how ABC defines "professionalism" as whatever hurts Trump and helps Harris.…

Conservative NFL football watchers had their game ruined by a Kamala Harris ad claiming she'll cut taxes for the middle class, and Trump will raise them (with tariffs). Just like she'll cut the costs of everything. None of this matches the Biden-Harris record. Joseph Vazquez joins the show to take Bidenomics to the woodshed.…

The big presidential debate on Tuesday night on ABC News will be moderated by World News Tonight anchor David Muir and their Sunday-night news anchor Linsey Davis. A review of their biased moments suggests they are going to tilt in favor of Kamala Harris making "history." Will they bring up Hunter Biden's guilty plea? Geoff Dickens joins the show t…

The legislation creating public broadcasting contained a rule that PBS should be objective in all programming of a "controversial nature." In our latest study of PBS primetime coverage of the RNC and DNC conventions, we found the taxpayer-funded network is obviously making no attempt to hide its pro-Democrat tilt. Clay Waters explains our findings.…

Kamala Harris finally submitted to an interview after 39 days as Biden's sudden replacement. There were a few tough questions, but then came really long answers without much follow-up. Jorge Bonilla sat through it all and has thoughts.

Jack Smith's recycled indictment of Donald Trump ten weeks before the election underlines that the Biden Justice Department is engaged in election interference. It's a lie for the media to report or imply that these prosecutors are independent or nonpartisan, and that a reelected Trump will ruin the department's nonpartisanship.…

Thousands of radical leftists marched in the streets of Chicago during the Democratic National Convention. The media initially covered it, but quickly lost interest when there wasn't a riot. They preferred Kamala's "joy." MRCTV Director Eric Scheiner recounts the sorry sound of the streets.

The end of a Democrat convention really draws out proclamations of Historic Possibilities, and Rachel Maddow, Jake Tapper, and Stephen Colbert stood out in the gushfest. It's quite a contrast with how all the anchors summarized Donald Trump's acceptance speech.

Through two days of the Democrat convention, we're buried in praise of the "electricity" and the "energy," and that was before the Obamas magically ascended to the stage. Plus, some weird takes from Chris Wallace on CNN. Nick Fondacaro tells us about the night-shift findings.

The latest special report by veteran MRC researcher Rich Noyes found that since Joe Biden was forced out of the race, the ABC/CBS/NBC evening newscasts have given her 84 percent positive coverage! It's unprecedented in the MRC's history. Meanwhile, Trump is still getting 89 percent negative coverage.…

Leftist megadonors George and Alex Soros not only fund more than 125 prosecutors across America, they make them come to meetings and accept orders. Our VP for Free Speech America Dan Schneider joins the show to talk about their latest eye-opening report on "Law and Disorder.”

When Tim Walz surfaced on the campaign trail by himself, the networks glossed over or buried the VP nominee's false claims that he served in war zones. Most networks buried the Washington Examiner scoop on Walz's meetings with a pro-Hamas, Hitler-admiring imam in Minnesota who he lauded as a "master teacher."…

One demonstration of the media's shameless refusal to accept that they're not always factually correct came Sunday on CNN. Sen. J.D. Vance told Dana Bash that one reason he opposed Donald Trump in 2016 is because he accepted the media lies, and Bash replied "There aren't media lies."

Donald Trump held a press conference, for which he received zero credit. But at least Kamala Harris took a few questions. The Washington Post contrasted the campaigns: Trump is relying on "dark and dystopian" tones about life under Biden, while Team Harris is "joyous about the joy." One voter said the contrast was "unicorn sparkles versus puke."…

J.D. Vance is engaging the press, while Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are not. Our political press corps has zero self-respect. They don’t care about access to the leading Democrats. They obviously care only about Democrat victory.

The media's unelected Democrats cannot tolerate anyone questioning the racial authenticity of Kamala Harris. ABC's George Stephanopoulos yelled at Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) over Trump questioning her racial shape-shifting. But it's far too common for journalists to question the blackness of black conservatives and Republicans, and suggest they're…

It's now time for the promotional progressive press to lean into how cool Kamala is, so they tout endorsements by pop stars like Olivia Rodrigo and gush over Maya Rudolph playing (not mocking) Harris on 'Saturday Night Live.' CNN's Dana Bash said she was 'very, very, excited.'

Who would have thought Donald Trump would accept a tough gig at the National Association of Black Journalists convention, and Kamala Harris would not? Trump was hounded with vicious questions and yet the NABJ is erupting internally because Team Harris just couldn’t find any time for journalists, and Trump said sure, I’ll take you on.…

NBC's Hallie Jackson aired a story on the presidential race with these themes. Kamala's campaign is loaded with dough; Kamala thinks the Republicans are all "weird"; and Trump is "on defense" because he made a lame joke about Americans not needing to vote in four years.

The networks cover a plane crash, but they don’t cover the planes that land safely. So in politics, did anyone think it was shocking that the Obamas were going to endorse Kamala? They loved that, and they love celebrity endorsers like Beyonce...when they endorse Democrats.

Kamala Harris is in her first days as the presumptive Democrat nominee for president, and already her media enablers are furious anyone would call her a "DEI hire" (racist slur!) or the "border czar" assigned to reduce illegal immigration (as the media reported in 2021). What was accurate is now deemed inaccurate.…

Joe Biden is finally dragged out of the race, kicking and screaming, and then he’s suddenly praised for a graceful exit and compared to George Washington. Biden should be compared to less-than-great presidents like Millard Fillmore.

This year's Republican convention drew surprisingly calm coverage compared to the hostile norm, in part due to the attempt to kill Donald Trump. Meanwhile, on some days, the GOP news was submerged to cover Democrats deep in a crisis as more politicians call on Joe Biden to end his campaign.

Night two of the Republican National Convention was about "safety," talking about crime and immigration. So at the top of their show on taxpayer-funded PBS, anchor Amna Nawaz announced Republican rhetoric can "veer into outright racism" and echo white supremacy. Our tax dollars are abused.

Donald Trump was shot in the ear on Saturday night, and the networks tried to be calm. But a spin did emerge. Republicans can't blame Democrats for inspiring violence based on all their talk of Trump being Hitler, Stalin, Mao, the Covid killer, or any of that rhetoric. That's quite a flip from what they've done to Republicans in the past.…

President Biden may have avoided a 'total collapse' without 'drooling,' but his evening press conference was not a "big boy" event. The questions were soft, and the list of reporters guaranteed lighter questioning. Still, some bizarrely claim the media are pro-Trump.

Just weeks after headlining a lucrative Hollywood fundraiser for Joe Biden, George Clooney wrote in The New York Times that Biden has got to go and let someone else "save democracy" from Donald Trump.

Did George Stephanopoulos do an interview with Joe Biden, or an intervention? The New York Post said it was an intervention. The New York Times hailed the ABC host "respectfully but firmly" channeling the questions of all Americans. He did not. He was channeling the panic among Democrats. He wasn't interested in fact-checking or following up.…

CNN media reporter Hadas Gold found some less-than-courageous journalists to admit (anonymously) that they could have done a much better job of reporting on President Biden's cognitive decline before the disastrous debate. But they worried about the "blowback" from Team Biden and from the "liberal Twittersphere."…

As the media face a crisis of confidence, should they throw that accusation at someone else? After the Supreme Court ruled on presidential immunity, they found a "crisis," but it feels more like it's a "crisis" because the liberals are not in charge. CNN and MSNBC engaged in wild talk about Trump assassinating rivals.…

After Joe Biden's mentally feeble performance in the CNN debate, it's obvious that no one in the pro-Biden media more aggressively defended Biden as mentally sharp than MSNBC's Joe Scarborough. Maybe his friends need to tell him he needs to quit. The show's embarrassing.

We've been clear that our expectations for Jake Tapper and Dana Bash in this CNN debate are low, considering their years of Trump-trashing antics. It's a little amazing that they are pledging in advance that they don't plan to "fact check" the candidates, because the moderators aren't "participating" in the debate. Don't buy it.…

Nick Fondacaro broke a story on how debate moderate Jake Tapper's show aired a nasty hit piece that spurred a defamation lawsuit from a man working to evacuate people out of Afghanistan. Internal messages show profane malice from reporter Alex Marquardt and others.

On "The Reidout" (or Freakout), Joy Reid ripped into Louisiana for requiring the posting of the Ten Commandments in public schools. The "Christian nationalists" are upsetting the "freedom from religion" crowd and they're clueless about Moses to boot.

Brian Stelter is back on CNN again, claiming that somehow the videos showing Joe Biden bumbling are somehow sometimes “made up.” CNN host Abby Phillip asked Stelter on Monday about what's being "deceptively characterized" in Biden's public appearances. Stelter claimed: "This is a real problem. This is not some made-up fiction. The videos are oftent…

On MSNBC, Alex Wagner whines that Trump will be held to a much lower standard than Biden during the debates. Susan Glasser agrees, says the MAGA base doesn't hold Trump "accountable" like...well, hostile leftist Democrat journalists.

Anti-Biden social-media accounts shared video of Joe Biden turning around and seemingly wandering off at the G-7 summit, and the Italian prime minister Giorgia Meloni worked to turn him around like Jill Biden does. The pro-Biden media were furious that the "Murdoch Media" was spreading this clip mocking the "Meander In Chief."…

The network newscasts and national newspapers greeted the Hunter Biden verdicts with sappy pictures and talk of "family turmoil." No one can be allowed to say that Joe and Jill Biden are bad parents, enablers of bad behavior.

On 'Morning Joe,' Mika Brzezinski ripped Fox News for deciding Trump is not a dictator-in-waiting. He only joked with Sean Hannity about being a "dictator" on Day One. Trump is insane, she said, and "loves dictators and wants to be one." So you have to vote for Biden because only he "endorses democracy."…

As Hunter Biden is tried on gun charges in Delaware, Geoffrey Dickens joins the show to remind us how scoops about the Bidens (Joe, Hunter, Uncle Jim) in the New York Post and Politico are persistently ignored by ABC, CBS, and NBC.

NPR morning host Steve Inskeep promised a diversity of viewpoints on the morning after the Trump trial verdict. It turned out Hugh Hewitt (and four lefties) were interviewed. Fox News was flogged (again) by media reporter David Folkenflik .He said Fox "stacked the deck" and created a "30-mile buffer for Trump."…

Reporters might admit the Trump convictions are a "political gift" for the Democrats, but they still claim there's "no evidence" the prosecution was political -- and especially, that anyone could claim Biden and his administration were behind it. The networks strongly suppressed the painfully obvious notion that Democrats are prosecuting Trump to d…

The last 24 hours have been like drinking water out of a firehose for us here at NewsBusters as the liberal media have been sounding off on former President Trump being found guilty on 34 counts. Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro and Managing Editor Curtis Houck parse out the media reactions into their respective buckets ranging from gleeful to a hun…

Pivoting back to the news of the week after their big interview with Mary Margaret Olohan, Managing Editor Curtis Houck and Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro poked fun at the ratings of CNN’s pitiful primetime lineup thanks to a new piece by our own Bill D’Agostino. The guys also dug into Doocy Time leaving Jean-Pierre in need of a fainting couch, a …

Detrans: True Stories of Escaping the Gender Ideology Cult is out today and hosts Nick Fondacaro and Curtis Houck spoke with author Mary Margaret Olohan about what she’s discovered in speaking with several young men and women who had fallen victim to transgender ideology. They also discussed the Orwellian doublespeak in media style guides from grou…

NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck and associate editor Nicholas Fondacaro dove into the wholly manufactured liberal media storyline of Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito and flags outside his homes as a sign he’s ethically and morally compromised as a jurist. Simply put, the obsession over this story and the double standard created illustrat…

The latest NewsBusters study found 573 minutes of Trump-trial coverage on ABC, CBS, and NBC, but less than eight minutes for Sen. Bob "Gold Bars" Menendez, Democrat of New Jersey. It's funny how GOP scandals always "overshadow" the Democrats when the networks create the "news."
