Accuracy in Media

NBC News chairman Andrew Lack may be riding a wave of ratings success at both NBC News and MSNBC, but that doesn’t mean that he’s completely confident that all his moves will pay off for the network. Since Lack took over the networks two years ago, MSNBC has risen from a third-place also-ran to a […]

Why is the liberal mainstream media ignoring Katie Couric’s remarks on fake news? Couric, who currently works at Yahoo, recently said that fake news is the reason behind America “tearing apart at the seams.” The irony of the fake news remarks is that Couric edited a documentary to portray gun rights activists in an unfriendly […]

Some very interesting points made by The Federalist‘s Sean Davis (who is always a good read, by the way): But that’s not the worst thing that happened with the making of this documentary. It turns out that Couric’s production team deliberately conspired to violate federal gun laws. According to video obtained by Ammoland, a shooting sports news […]

And it was all to aggrandize herself, make ideological enemies look bad, and make her own questioning seem so incisive as to stump all comers. So when Trump says the media […]

This week we pay tribute to Rolling Thunder in honor of Memorial Day, discuss the national polls showing Trump and Clinton in a statistical tie, Katie Couric’s backtracking on gun doc after deceptive editing revealed, the State Department IG report on Clinton’s private email server,  a new poll showing that 90% of Native Americans aren’t […]
