BROADCAST BIAS: The top 10 worst examples of media malpractice in 2025

Media called out for 'predetermined' criticism of Trump's primetime address Fox News contributor Joe Concha joined 'Fox & Friends First' to discuss the media's criticism of President Donald Trump's primetime address and Kamala Harris' refusal to say whether she will run again in 2028. Looking back at 2025, it’s obviously, on a daily basis, why the broadcast networks are dismissed by most Americans as a source of daily advertising for one side of the political debate. This tilt has intensified in the last 10 years of media obsession over President Donald Trump . The broadcast networks have not distinguished themselves in Trump’s second term as capable of reason and common sense. Instead, what’s too common is emotionally overwrought propaganda. Here’s a quick top 10: 10. In a rare moment on ABC’s "The View" that pseudo-conservative co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin stuck up for America on June 18, she was quickly rebuffed. Griffin stated: "I think it’s very different to live in the United States in 2025 than it is in Iran." Co-host Whoopi Goldberg replied: "Not if you’re Black!"

If you think "60 Minutes" is about being tough on everyone, you missed their puffball interview on March 23 with actor George Clooney, who took his CBS News mythmaking play "Good Night and Good Luck" to Broadway. Clooney proclaimed, "Journalism and telling truth to power has to be waged like war is waged. It doesn't just happen accidentally. You know, it takes people saying, 'We're going to do these stories and you're going to have to come after us and that's the way it is." But no one waged war on Clooney. He was puffed on this show and later in the year on "Sunday Morning." 7. Speaking of puffball interviews, "PBS News Hour" performed a "Driving Miss Daisy" interview with former Democrat House Speaker Nancy Pelosi in front of a live audience of San Francisco liberals on May 2. He threw softballs like "How do you think about generational change?" and "What was the hardest vote to whip, to push through. What vote are you proudest of?" She said Obamacare, and said the Republican resolutions against it were like "doggy...
