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

Nearly All Americans Continue to Skip Dem Hearings
