Democrat-controlled media outlets truly despise Donald Trump.

They hate the fact that he called them “fake news.”

And a disgraced journalist sat for one interview that will have you steaming.

Donald Trump ripped the corporate-controlled press as the “enemy of the American people.”

They proved him correct with one fake “bombshell” story after another, and constant leaks from the deep state aimed at subverting his administration.

Now CBS just welcomed back Dan Rather for an interview in advance of a Netflix documentary about his career.

Getting it wrong again

Back in 2005, Rather was forced out of the network after presenting fabricated documents about George W. Bush’s military service record.

But CBS welcomed him back.

Rather told CBS correspondent Lee Cowan, “Without apology or explanation, I miss CBS. . .I’ve missed it since the day I left.”

In the Netflix documentary Rather, the disgraced newsman revealed that he believed he could survive the Bush incident, but his wife told him, “You got into a fight with the president of the United States during his re-election campaign. What did you think was going to happen?”

Presenting fake documents is a much bigger problem for a journalist than getting under the skin of the president.

Rather told Cowan, “You either get engaged and you get engaged in the new terms. . .or you’re out of the game. . .And I wanted to stay in the game.”

Still carrying the water

In recent years, Rather has spent time serving as an establishment shill on Twitter.

In response to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s nonsensical hush money trial, Rather tweeted, “Is it just me or did today seem sleazy even for Donald Trump?”

Rather also tried to scold left-wing comedian Jon Stewart after he promoted the COVID lab leak theory on Stephen Colbert’s CBS late-night show.

At the time, suggesting the virus came from the lab in Wuhan was considered racist and a conspiracy that “only” conservatives believed in.

Stewart completely shattered that media taboo, much to the chagrin Democrat-controlled media shilling for Dr. Anthony Fauci’s lies.

Rather wrote on Twitter in response, “Stewart is playing into the trope of the mad scientist at a time when we need science more than ever to solve our more pressing problems — most notably climate change. The idea that science is the biggest threat to the planet is terribly irresponsible. It gives free license to all those who say, ‘forget what we have learned, forget knowledge, forget seeing reality.’ And I fear this reasoning – or should I say ‘unreasoning’ — has not only consumed the modern Republican party but is in danger of consuming an even broader swath of the American and global public.”

Rather’s reproof fell on deaf ears, and the lab leak theory has once again become the dominant explanation.

Democrats expect red-carpet treatment when they go on corporate news outlets.

They lose their cool when they get even the slightest pushback.

And Nancy Pelosi short-circuited on MSNBC when she was hit with one fact.

Things are not going well for Joe Biden and the Democrats’ election hopes.

Polls show him consistently behind Donald Trump despite bogus lawfare and endless negative press by the Democrat-controlled Media.

In an attempt to stop the bleeding, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) appeared on MSNBC with host Katy Tur to stump for Biden.

Bidenomics is a total bust

Pelosi tried to hard-sell Biden’s economic record because polls show that voters trust Trump on the economy by 20 points.

Pelosi said that Biden “created 9 million jobs in his term in office. Donald Trump has the worst record of job loss of any president. So we just have to make sure people know.”

Tur interrupted Pelosi’s propaganda by pointing out that “there was a global pandemic” the last year of Trump’s presidency, meaning most of the “jobs created” were existing ones that were destroyed by the heavy hand of Big Government during COVID. 

Pelosi’s brain momentarily broke when she received gentle pushback from Tur.

She repeated her talking point and said that “he had the worst record of any president. We’ve had other concerns in our country.”

Pelosi then shocked the audience by accusing Tur of being a Trump “apologist.”

The Congresswoman barked, “If you want to be an apologist for Donald Trump, that may be your role, but it ain’t mine.”

Tur replied, “I don’t think anyone can accuse me of that.”

Truth hurts

The idea that Tur is a Trump “apologist” is laughable.

This is not the first time she has been slammed by the “woke” Left for daring to allow truth to wriggle into the broadcast.

Tur was lambasted by Democrats for bringing up that Biden’s advanced age was a concern.

Virtually every poll shows that Biden’s age is a top concern for Americans. 

According to a recent New York Times and Siena College poll, 73% of all registered voters cited Biden as too old to be in the White House.

Even Hillary Clinton conceded that Biden’s age was “an issue.”

So it shouldn’t be a surprise that even Leftists in the media are talking about it.

But the Democrats cannot let anyone disrupt the narrative.

As for Trump’s jobs record, as Tur mentioned, the lockdowns were at fault.

Even more galling about Pelosi’s argument was that the lockdowns were primarily in blue states.

So Democrats locked down, then wanted to blame Trump for the economy tanking.

When Biden came into office, he tried to use OSHA regulations to mandate companies with 50 or more employees force their employees to get the COVID shot.

The idea that Biden’s policies have led to massive job creation is absurd.

Everybody understands what’s going on, which is why Democrats have failed to get any traction with “Bidenomics.”

CNN is in perpetual free fall.

The network has not recovered after going all-in on being the Orange Man Bad channel.

And a CNN host got shown the door after one disastrous show.

CNN This Morning turned out to be an utter disaster for the network.

Before the plug was pulled on the show, it averaged 322,000 total viewers, far behind MSNBC’s Morning Joe with 988,000, and Fox News’ Fox & Friends at 1.07 million.

Show implosion

First, Don Lemon was fired from the network after several embarrassing on-air moments. 

And then, Kaitlan Collins was able to wrangle a primetime show.

Now Poppy Harlow, the third co-host of CNN This Morning, is no longer at the network.

She wrote in a farewell letter, “I got to experience what makes this country great. I sat with people in their best moments and in their hardest. They taught me about the human condition and what binds us. Whether it was covering the impact of the financial crisis from Wall Street to Detroit, or spending time with young women in jail in East Tennessee or on Rikers Island, or listening to grieving parents who lost their children to the opioid crisis in Ohio, or the repeated heartbreak of mass shootings, it is the human side of the story that has always moved me, motivated me, and made me appreciate this work so much.”

Harlow worked at CNN from 2008 to 2024, so she saw the network shift from left-of-center to completely Trump-deranged in record speed.

New CNN boss Mark Thompson said in a statement to Vanity Fair, “Poppy is a unique talent who combines formidable reporting and interviewing prowess with a human touch that audiences have always responded to. . .She’s been a wonderful colleague at CNN, and we know she will have much success in her future endeavors.”

Life after CNN

Harlow said that for now, her “plan is to walk our children to school and pick them up (hopefully they won’t get sick of me!), and to support the evolution of journalism in every way I can, while preserving the human(ity) in it.”

It will be interesting to see if Harlow can land any traction as an independent media personality.

Her departure isn’t just another name on the growing list of CNN This Morning hosts to be shown the door.

She joins a long list of other media personalities mixing up their career paths in recent years. 

Thus far, not many corporate journalists have been able to successfully make the switch.

Lemon’s Twitter show has been an utter embarrassment thus far. 

It’s still recovering from an epic failure to launch after Elon Musk was his first guest.

And Keith Olbermann remains completely unhinged after sinking his career at three different networks: CNN, ESPN, and MSNBC. 

Olbermann has been reduced to meltdowns on X and being easily triggered by conservative personalities on the platform.
