Presidential historian and frequent MSNBC and CNN talking head Douglas Brinkley joined former CBS and NBC anchor Katie Couric on her Thursday on her YouTube channel. According to Brinkley, President Trump’s Smithsonian Institute plans are some sort of Russian or Chinese-inspired attempt to rewrite history and bring back the era of “segregation of some kind.” Meanwhile, Couric unwittingly proved…

Once again, somebody in the late night comedy show business is calling “bullshit” on my most recent late night guest count study. This time the man attacking my integrity, as well as that of my NewsBusters colleagues, was Pete Dominick, Stephen Colbert’s former warm-up act, on Sunday’s Sanity with Alisyn and Dave podcast.

On his Monday Substack podcast, Acosta claimed that Washington, D.C. now lives under occupation, and its residents are showing “bravery and courage” in resisting. Acosta solemnly declared, “I just wanna say I take my hat off, kudos to the people of Washington, D.C. for showing not just bravery and…

HBO’s Bill Maher can seem like the most reasonable of the bunch of the liberal late night comedians because he is willing to ridicule the excesses of the left, but in mocking DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls” Coristine on Friday’s Real Time for being assaulted, he crossed a line that even the others have dared not cross. Maher began, “Trump could not have been happier to get out of Washington…

One time-tested way to examine media bias is to see if the media label any indicted Democrat official as a Democrat. But with President Trump’s deployment of the National Guard to Washington, D.C., highlighting blue city mismanagement, over ABC, CBS, and NBC’s Friday evening and Saturday morning shows, only CBS passed the test of identifying New Orleans Mayor Latoya Cantrell as a Democrat, and…
