Embarrassing “NBC Nightly News” Turns Itself into Infomercial for Iranian Regime

NewsBusters

Friday’s NBC Nightly News capped an ugly 24 hours for the liberal media after U.S. airstrikes killed Iranian terrorist Qasem Soleimani by doubling down on its bias, flashing outrageous chyrons, and fluffing pillows for the Iranians over the course of nearly 12 minutes of coverage.  With help from anchor Lester Holt’s August visit to Tehran, this kowtow came at the expense of the President and supporters of the strike as that side only fetched about two minutes of either direct soundbites or attributions.

NewsBusters

The decade began with liberal journalists and celebrities praising Barack Obama as a savior and the “Second Coming,” while depicting his political foes like the Tea Party as “racist” “terrorists” who wanted “a lot of people to die.” As the decade came to a close the lefty media hailed Hillary Clinton as “the smartest woman in the room” but compared Donald Trump and his conservative supporters to Nazis.

The news media are enthusiastically champions of the Democrats’ impeachment push against President Donald Trump, donating dozens of hours of free airtime to the cause…But 21 years ago, the same news media was enraged by the House vote to impeach a Democratic President, casting it as a “legislative coup d’etat” and a hateful act from “infuriated” Republicans who wished only to “torture” President Bill Clinton.

Networks Spend 75 Hours on Trump’s Impeachment, Barely Bothered During Clinton Years

NewsBusters

Broadcast networks NBC, CBS, and ABC have donated 75 hours of free air time to Democrats’ impeachment hearings, despite notably poor (and consistently shrinking) ratings. Yet during President Clinton’s impeachment, these same networks could not be bothered to carry more than a few hours of independent counsel Ken Starr’s one-day presentation of the evidence against Clinton on November 19, 1998.

Nearly All Americans Continue to Skip Dem Hearings

If the idea behind wall-to-wall broadcast and cable news coverage of the Democrats’ impeachment hearings was to shift public opinion, then it’s not looking good for the Democrats…It’s also worth pointing out that the Fox News Channel — hardly the preferred network of the Trump haters — has been a consistent ratings winner (averaging 2.6 million), edging out the left-wing MSNBC (2.5 million) and handily beating the liberal broadcast networks (1.9 million each for ABC and CBS, compared to 1.8 million for NBC) and CNN (1.7 million).

Elitist Bill Maher Trashes “Hate”-Filled Conservatives as “A**holes You Can’t Stand”

NewsBusters

Real Time host Bill Maher concluded his satirical segment “New Rules” on Friday by advising his audience to “just celebrate Thanksgiving, don’t try to win it.” At first glance, his closing monologue might have seemed like words of wisdom… But it quickly turned into a rant against “hate”-filled “rubes” and “Bible thumpers,” in other words, conservatives.

Stephen King Attacks “Useless Piece of Sh*t” Trump

It didn’t take long for Stephen King to launch into an attack on President Donald Trump, in the wake of the Santa Clarita shooting…This isn’t the first time The Shining author exploited a shooting to criticize a Republican and call for gun control.
