MRC Watchdogs churn out breaking news on a daily basis. Don't miss Today's Highlights, where you can keep up with the top MRC content, whether it's the latest study on media bias, a glaring omission from the elitist media, or how the Big Tech companies are serving up the same leftist spin as the media.  Top Stories: 1) CBS Finally Names Tony Dokoupil the New Anchor of the ‘CBS Evening News’ 2) Labeling Imbalance Persists at PBS After Trump Rescinded Federal Funding 3) Biden’s Immigration Debacle Is the Media’s, Too 4) Apple News Shows ONLY 1 Right-Leaning Outlet Out of 560 Articles Throughout November   1) CBS Finally Names Tony Dokoupil the New Anchor of the ‘CBS Evening News’ CBS's Long-Overdue Ditch of Liberal Smugness: After two flops with anchors John Dickerson and Maurice DuBois—who tanked ratings with their elitist, left-leaning spin in under a year—CBS is finally admitting defeat and handing the reins to Dokoupil, a proven performer who won't treat viewers like rubes. Dokoupil's Wake-Up Call from the Left: Starting his career in Obama-era echo chambers like Newsweek and MSNBC, Dokoupil has evolved into a centrist bulldog—grilling Ta-Nehisi Coates on anti-Semitism and defending Israel post-Hamas attacks—proving even network insiders can rediscover journalistic spine. Weiss's Bold Bet on Trust Over Bias: With Bari Weiss at the helm, this hire signals CBS's panic to claw back from rock-bottom media credibility by embracing "old-school" accountability; if Dokoupil delivers on hard questions to power (not just pals), Evening News could actually compete again. 2) Labeling Imbalance Persists at PBS After Trump Rescinded Federal Funding MRC analysts counted up the “left-wing” and “right-wing” style ideological labels used by anchors, reporters, and contributors on the PBS News Hour regarding American politics from December 1, 2024 through November 30, 2025. PBS News Weekend programs were not included. PBS staff used 44 variations of "far-right" labels and only 4 of "far-left" labels, a ratio of 11:1. PBS staff also used mere "right-wing" and "left-wing" labels at a disparity of 17-12. So overall, the labeling disparity was 61-16. The figures remained uneven after President Trump signed the bill rescinding federal funding from PBS and NPR on July 24, with 11 variations of “far-right” labels and 2 of “far-left” ones. Overall, the post-July 24 labeling disparity was 17-9. (Note: Coverage of the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk began September 10, 2025, which may have skewed the post-July 24 raw figures somewhat toward balance.) 3) Biden’s Immigration Debacle Is the Media’s, Too Biden's Ideological Folly Ignored Warnings, Unleashing Chaos: Despite pre-election memos from top aides in August 2020 warning of a massive border surge from lax enforcement and pent-up demand, the administration's partisan push flooded the U.S. with millions of illegal immigrants—proving ideology and incompetence trumped common sense, as admitted by former ICE official Deborah Fleischaker: "I don’t think we ever recovered." Mainstream Media's Delayed "Postgame" Coverage Betrayed the Public: Outlets like The New York Times buried the immigration crisis for years—treating it as yesterday's news only in late 2025—mirroring their silence on Biden's senility, leaving voters in the dark while conservative alarms rang unanswered and enabling Democratic denial until electoral disaster struck. Abbott's Busing Genius Exposed Blue-State Hypocrisy: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's strategic transport of tens of thousands of migrants to sanctuary cities like New York and Denver shattered Democrats' plan to dump the crisis on red states, forcing elite voters to face the consequences and marking the turning point where Biden's team lost the immigration debate for good. 4) Apple News Shows ONLY 1 Right-Leaning Outlet Out of 560 Articles Throughout November Apple News Delivers Stark Ideological Imbalance: Throughout November 2025, Apple News showcased only one right-leaning outlet (The Telegraph, a British source) in its top 20 daily stories—out of 560 articles reviewed—exposing a near-total blackout on conservative perspectives in a platform reaching millions of users. Major U.S. Conservative Voices Silenced Despite Popularity: No prominent American right-leaning outlets like Fox News, Daily Mail, or New York Post cracked the top 20, even though they rank among the highest-traffic U.S. news sites—proving Apple News prioritizes curation over consumer demand. Left-Leaning Dominance Floods the Feed: Radical leftist sources like Vox, The New Yorker, The Atlantic, and Vice overwhelmed the top slots, alongside staples like The Washington Post, NBC News, and Al Jazeera—turning Apple News into an echo chamber for progressive narratives. Even Token Conservatism Is Locked Away: The solitary right-leaning article was buried behind an Apple News+ paywall, denying free users access and underscoring Big Tech's agenda to marginalize dissenting views—time to demand transparency and fairness for all.
