MSNBC host Katy Tur hosted CNN host Brian Stelter in a cozy book chat on Tuesday. She noted at the end that both of them had the same person editing their anti-Trump books. Isn't that special?
During live convention coverage on Monday night, PBS White House reporter Yamiche Alcindor made three factual errors in 90 seconds. Two of them were typical caricatures of Trump statements on racial matters, but the third was her assumption that Jacob Blake -- shot six times by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin -- was dead. He's in stable condition in the hospital.

On Sunday's Reliable Sources, CNN host Brian Stelter played his usual role as enforcer of liberal bias, insisting the networks must create an imbalance in how they cover conventions. CNN was right to allow two hours a night of Democrat advertising, he said, but the Republicans must be interrupted incessantly because it will be a "stream of lying."
Top MSNBC host Rachel Maddow bizarrely claimed she's not into "cable news wars" as she devoted almost 17 minutes to promoting the new Fox-trashing book Hoax, by CNN host Brian Stelter.
Lara Trump annoyed the co-anchors of Saturday's Today show by bringing the Trump talking points as they deployed Fox News praise of Biden's convention speech and tried to insist Biden will only "follow the science" on the coronavirus.
On the last night of the Democrat convention, Sen. Cory Booker drew an AP Fact Check for suggesting a $15 hourly minimum wage would lift everyone above the poverty line. The AP gently called that "improbable."
On Tuesday night's NBC convention coverage, Chuck Todd was back in front of the network's interactive map, touting how easily Joe Biden would trounce President Trump right now....but then NBC co-anchor Savannah Guthrie ruined the mood by noting this is exactly what Chuck and others said four years ago, about how Trump really didn't have a path to victory.
In the hour leading up to Night 3 of the Democrat convention, PBS profiled Joe Biden's career, and was praised for defeating the Robert Bork nomination to the Supreme Court, and then criticized for being unfair to Anita Hill -- and letting Clarence Thomas be confirmed to the Supreme Court. NPR reporter Nina Totenberg was their expert witness.
CNN still allows a conservative analysts or two to make trouble on the set. With five minutes to go before the DNC convention program launched on Tuesday night, analyst Scott Jennings wondered out loud why Bill Clinton hasn't been canceled in the #MeToo era.
