On Friday, NBC’s Today show went all in pushing false White House spin that months of record-high inflation and soaring gas prices were somehow exclusively caused by the two-week-old war in Ukraine rather than bad economic policy from the Biden administration. The coverage even parroted the President’s dishonest talking points word for word by repeating

Closing out another incredibly busy news week, NewsBusters deputy managing editor Nick Fondacaro and I kicked off Friday’s NewsBusters Podcast with some gloating over the sentencing of Jussie Smollett — the far-left actor who faked a hate crime on a January 2019 Chicago night in subzero temperatures — and the liberal media’s complicity in his

Talk about damning with faint praise. . .

Actor Jussie Smollett and his race hoax spent their first night in Chicago’s Cook County Jail Thursday. Let’s hope they slept fitfully.

You can’t just cut off Russian oil without replacing it, preferably with American oil, because it’s not just gas that’s affected.

After Cook County Judge James Linn told Jussie Smollett he’d be starting 150 days in jail right then and there Thursday night for staging a hate crime against himself in 2019 and lying to police about the hoax, Smollett turned more than a few heads with a bizarre soliloquy of sorts. ‘I am not suicidal!’
New York Times Miami bureau chief Patricia Mazzei took another rhetorical bat to Florida’s new surgeon general Dr. Joseph Ladapo for rejecting overbearing Covid restrictions and regulations, in Tuesday’s edition: “Against C.D.C.
