Whenever a natural disaster occurs while a Republican is president, corporate media concern trolling soon follows. So it was with the horrific flooding in Texas over the 4th of July weekend; as soon as the news reached the newsrooms, the talking heads and teleprompter pilots rushed to google to determine which Trump-era executive action they could most convincingly blame for the tragedy.
Despite the growing trend of leftwing extremist violence during the first six months of the Trump administration (including the DC Jewish Museum shooting, the firebombing a GOP building in Albuquerque, and the anti-deportation riots Los Angeles), talking heads on TV news remained reluctant to acknowledge the existence of the American far left. However, those same journalists had no qualms about…
The corporate media’s dishonest mantra back in 2020, that the George Floyd riots were “mostly peaceful,” quickly became a joke among conservative circles, due to just how absurd and untrue it was. And yet, they’re deploying that same inaccurate terminology again, this time in their attempts to excuse the fiery anti-deportation riot in LA this past weekend.
Well, it’s finally happened: the Trump White House has sent a rescissions package to Congress containing $1.1 Billion in cuts to funding for NPR and PBS. Now House Republicans just have to pass it.
Jake Tapper and his ilk owe all of us an explanation for why, from 2017 through 2020, they were so intensely concerned about President Trump’s health that they managed to incorrectly diagnose him with dementia, early-onset Alzheimer’s, profound mental illness, and heart disease.
In February of 2024, when special counsel Robert Hur published his report about then-President Biden’s alleged mishandling of classified documents, the White House’s media lapdogs were utterly incensed by Hur’s characterization of Biden as an “elderly man with a poor memory.” Borrowing language directly from Democrats’ own talking points, corporate journalists maligned the special counsel for his…
When Donald Trump was indicted in March of 2023, the corporate media spent the next thirteen months up until his conviction smugly reminding everyone within earshot that “no one is above the law.” Yet these same supposed journalists are now expressing disgust and outrage at the arrest of leftwing politicians and judges who quite clearly appear to have broken the law.
Did you know Democrat Congressman Shri Thanedar (MI-13) filed articles of impeachment against President Trump yesterday? If not, don't worry — pretty much nobody in the media noticed either.
On Tuesday, MRC senior research analyst Bill D’Agostino joined Steve Bannon and Eric Bolling on Real America’s Voice to discuss the latest NewsBusters study of the broadcast Trump coverage. D’Agostino slammed the corporate media for attempting to “pull the wool over Americans’ eyes, as they aid Democrats in flooding the border and hollowing out the economy.”
