Longtime ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos is said to be 'miserable' at the network after it paid President Donald Trump a $16 million settlement over his remarks about the president. Stephanopoulos erroneously claimed on-air that the president-elect was found 'liable for rape' - rather than the correct phrasing of sexual abuse - against writer E. Jean Carroll in March. Trump sued Stephanopoulos and the network for defamation soon after the segment aired, accusing the anchor of making the statements with 'malice' and a disregard for the truth. As part of the settlement, Stephanopoulos was forced to issue a public apology....

"Fact checkers" at the anti-Trump website The Dispatch tried to scold critics enraged over the millions in taxpayer dollars wasted on "Politico Pro" subscriptions, and ended up looking completely ridiculous in the process. Facebook originally hired The Dispatch as part of its old fact-checker squad, perhaps to lend an appearance of balance, as they have claimed. This wasn't balanced. Following the uproar over the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and other government agencies doling out $8.2 million on Politico’s wildly overpriced Pro subscriptions between 2024 and 2025 alone, The Dispatch fact-checker Alex Demas followed with a knee-jerk response on...

Politico issued an emergency "Note to Our Readers" on Thursday about evidence uncovered by Team Doge that Politico has been paid at least $8 million indirectly via high priced government agency subscriptions to its Politico Pro service.Bizarrely in the entire note the agency at the center of the scandal dares not mention its name. Yes, you will not see the word "USAID" even once in the note issued by Politico's CEO Goli Sheikholeslami and Global Editor-in-Chief John F. Harris.The damage control starts with the subtitle of the emergency note: "POLITICO has been the subject of debate on X this week....

Donald Trump was suing the network for $10 billion, stating that 60 Minutes edited the video to make Harris look and sound better. Upon having time to review the raw footage, Trump amended his lawsuit to $20 billion, thus doubling the original amount.

It appears many on the left will continue to push DEI initiatives under the guise of “pluralism” and downplay the word “diversity,” a notable shift in language after the 2024 election... Chris Hayes, a leading voice among Democrats, is one of the first to deploy the updated political wording. “There is a message of what I would call like common sense, patriotic pluralism,” Hayes told Bill Maher.

In a provocative move that could be aimed at stoking President Donald Trump’s ire, Time magazine’s latest print cover features Elon Musk behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office. The storied biweekly publication, known for its historically significant covers, comes as Trump has given Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency extraordinary power to gut the federal workforce — power that has been stymied, at least to a degree, over the past few days by some lawsuits. The simple cover, which shows Musk, coffee in hand, sandwiched between the presidential desk and the American and presidential flags, is plainly...

MSNBC averaged only 63,000 demo viewers between the primetime hours of 8-11 p.m. ET... MSNBC’s primetime lineup finished with its smallest January audience ever among the advertiser-coveted demographic of adults aged 25-54. The news-heavy month featured an alleged terrorist ramming a truck through New Year's revelers in New Orleans, shocking video of a Tesla Cybertruck exploding in front of Trump International Hotel Las Vegas, President Biden pardoning members of his family and political allies on his way out the door, President Trump’s inauguration, the fragile ceasefire between Hamas and Israel and other significant headlines as the Trump administration began with...

President Biden’s and President Trump’s pardons have generated a lot of controversy. But there are considerable differences between the two sets of pardons, with a two-tiered system of justice unfairly biased against Jan. 6 defendants. Last month, Biden pardoned his son, Hunter. And then, on his last day in office, Biden pardoned five family members. That same day, Trump pardoned 1,500 people who were convicted or facing trial for the Jan. 6 riot. The media’s coverage of these pardons has been dramatically different. Take the New York Times, which describes Biden’s preemptive pardons as a way to “guard” from a...

Wow, that was quick. The Washington Post has already taken to blaming President Donald Trump for America’s economic woes, except the new data they’re using as the basis of their argument reflected the disastrous Biden economy, not Trump’s. GDP growth slowed in the fourth quarter of 2024 to 2.3 percent, which was noticeably slower than expected and put a dent into a lot of the media brouhaha surrounding how turbo-tastic Bidenomics supposedly was. But Post economic reporter Abha Bhattarai, desperate to spin this as somehow Trump’s fault, blamed the quirk on the economy getting the heebie-jeebies over his policies, before...

Outraged Chicago locals have slammed CNN for selective reporting of migrant raids in the city. The liberal broadcaster has largely focused on the human tragedy of the raids, despite violent criminals and a pedophile being among those also seized. In one news item, CNN showed an Illinois woman breaking down in tears saying her grandfather had been deported after 30 years in North America. 'They opened the door because they thought maybe one of us were in trouble or something happened to us,' said the interviewee, Yelitza Marquina of Waukegan. 'I'm already heartbroken myself and I can't imagine little kids...

“Clear a path!” shouted the big shots of TV news as they tried to squeeze their way through reporters packed like sardines into the White House briefing room to get to their front-row seats. Tempers frayed, foreheads perspired and necks strained similar to those of passengers itching to get off a plane.The first press briefing of a new administration is always a standing-room-only event. This time, it was the second Donald Trump administration and the debut of Karoline Leavitt, who pointed out that she is the youngest person to serve as White House press secretary. The 27-year-old beats the record...

Two former Politico reporters spoke candidly about efforts made by their bosses to either slow-walk or completely quash their reporting on the Biden family during their time at the news outlet. Marc Caputo and Tara Palmeri, now journalists for Axios and Puck respectively, reflected on their time at Politico on Palmeri's "Somebody's Gotta Win" podcast. Caputo called out Politico's "ill-fated headline" downplaying the Hunter Biden laptop scandal during the 2020 election. "I mean, Politico, my former employer, and I knew at the time, didn’t do itself any favors," Caputo said in the exchange, which was shared Thursday on YouTube. "I...

The new chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Republican Brendan Carr, will reverse the 11th hour decision by the former Democrat chair to reject three complaints against major media outlets, sources tell Newsmax. With days left in her term under the Biden administration, Chair Jessica Rosenworcel, a Democrat, last week announced she was dismissing four pending petitions and complaints before the FCC that she believed sought "to curtail freedom of the press." Three of the petitions related to coverage of the presidential campaign while one was a complaint about Fox News Channel. Carr, appointed Monday by President Donald Trump, plans...

Donald Trump’s inaugural address Monday showcased an unusually refined version of the MAGA leader on the cusp of his presidency: it toiled over the economy and immigration, promising to bring America into a “golden age.” But Trump’s unscripted second speech to a throng of his supporters served as his cutting room floor, sharing all the gripes that his script writers implored him not to dish. Seemingly unrehearsed and riddled with grammatical errors, Trump’s second speech of the day was remarkably more like him. Trump ripped into a cohort of his so-called enemies, torching former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for supposedly...

Ben Rhodes, the president’s Deputy National Security Advisor for Strategic Communications, recently told the New York Times Magazine that newspapers no longer have foreign bureaus, so “they call us to explain to them what’s happening in Moscow and Cairo.” The average reporter Rhodes encounters is 27 years old and “their only reporting experience consists of being around political campaigns. That’s a sea change. They literally know nothing.” One of the things they know nothing about is the major movement of modern times, Marxism-Leninism, also known as Communism, which first appeared nearly 100 years ago in the Union of Soviet Socialist...
