NBC’s Seth Meyers’s Tuesday interview with Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear could have been a case study in how the late night comedians conduct interviews with Democratic politicians. First, the Late Night host asked some softball questions about podcasting and Gen Z slang and then followed up with a strategy planning session to help Democrats win again. In addition to his gubernatorial duties,…

On Tuesday, CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert became the latest stop on Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s book tour, but the eponymous host got more than he bargained for when his straw man portrayal of a recent decision involving ICE was so bad, even the dissenting liberal justice had to correct him on it. ... Later, during the interview, Colbert repeated himself, “Let's…

On Tuesday, CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert became the latest stop on Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s book tour, but the eponymous host got more than he bargained for when his straw man portrayal of a recent decision involving ICE was so bad, even the dissenting liberal justice had to correct him on it.

On Monday, PBS/CNN International’s Amanpour and Company discovered that free speech rights are under attack in the United Kingdom. Unfortunately, correspondent Isobel Yeung didn’t want to talk about arresting comedians for not agreeing with trans ideology.

After explaining he…

In the span of only two minutes, HBO’s Bill Maher unleashed a trio of hysterical and outrageous claims about President Trump’s utilization of the National Guard in Washington, D.C. First, he subtly implied the move was akin to a dictator like Vladimir Putin invading Ukraine, calling it “Page One Of The Dictator Handbook.” Then he doubled down on making fun of DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls”…

Like ABC and NBC, CBS’s Friday evening and Saturday morning newscasts ignored the arrest of multiple juveniles in Washington, D.C. for the murder of congressional intern Eric Tarpinian-Jachym. Unlike ABC and NBC, CBS Saturday Morning’s omission bias was made worse by the fact that Justice Correspondent Scott MacFarlane chose to hype a magistrate judge’s rebuke of the Trump Administration’s crime…

9/11 truther Rosie O’Donnell joined former CNN host Jim Acosta on his Friday Substack podcast to spread another conspiracy theory, this time suggesting there was something fishy about the first assassination attempt on President Trump. In a further sign of his own descent into madness, Acosta just sat there smiling and laughing before claiming the real “weird” thing is Trump’s hand, not O’Donnell…

Anyone still confused why Republicans defunded PBS needs to look no further than a Thursday Amanpour & Company segment featuring host Christiane Amanpour and women, gender, and sexuality/African and American studies Prof. Imani Perry. Both would accuse President Trump of waging a war on knowledge as he seeks to reform the Smithsonian Institution, while Perry ironically spread historically-…
