Scot Bertram talks with Tim Graham, Executive Editor of NewsBusters and Director of Media Analysis at the Media Research Center, about the media's coverage of the Texas flooding and the attempt by some outlets—most notably George Stephanopoulos and Dana Bash—to link the disaster to former President Trump. Graham highlights the blatant bias at play and explains how narrative-driven reporting is shaping public perception of natural disasters.

The Rod and Greg Show Daily Rundown – Tuesday, July 8, 20254:20 pm: Steve Milloy, Senior Fellow at the Energy and Environment Legal Institute, joins the program to discuss the left's exploitation of the tragic flash floods in Texas to further a political agenda.4:38 pm: Tim Graham, Executive Editor of Newsbusters at the Media Research Center joins the show to discuss how ABC's George Stephanopoulos and CNN's Dana Bash are mistakenly trying to pin the loss of life in the Texas flash floods on President Trump.6:05 pm: Emily Kopp of the Daily Caller News Foundation joins Rod and Greg for a conversation about her reporting on how USAID shopped thousands of viral samples to a lab in Wuhan despite the lack of a formal operation agreement.6:38 pm: Margot Cleveland, Senior Legal Correspondent for The Federalist joins the show to discuss her story about how a CIA review shows Barack Obama pushed the intelligence community to portray Russia as targeting the 2016 election to help Trump win.

On ABC’s This Week, Stephanopoulos peddled claims of “staffing shortfalls” at the National Weather Service, ignoring an Associated Press report confirming extra staff were on duty during the storms. CNN’s Bash leaned on a union official—hardly an unbiased source—to suggest Trump’s “buyouts” left Texans unprepared, yet Rep. Joaquin Castro admitted there’s no conclusive evidence.

Guest Tim Graham, Executive Editor for Newsbusters, joins to discuss the future of the Democrat Party. Discussion of Zohran Mamdani, socialism in the US, failures of the left, and more.  During Independence Day weekend, should we think about what America stands for? Discussion of separating love of country for love of government, hatred against Trump and the USA, and a push for radicalized ideologies in the nation. 

In this broadcast, the host breaks down a series of dramatic developments: a federal judge—appointed by Barack Obama—issues a nationwide injunction to halt Donald Trump's border enforcement, effectively re-opening the border to illegal crossings and potential criminal networks. Despite the Supreme Court's recent ruling against such sweeping injunctions, lower court judges are defying precedent, creating what the host calls a constitutional crisis designed to provoke Trump into defying orders so the media can brand him a dictator. The conversation also explores the media's surface-level fascination with New York City's self-described democratic socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani (“Comrade Mamdani”) while ignoring his radical Marxist views. Finally, Newsbusters managing editor Curtis Houck joins to discuss how the mainstream media's declining credibility and obsession with attacking Trump have fueled record popularity for the former president, eclipsing even Ronald Reagan among Republican voters.

In these two segments, the hosts expose a sweeping pattern of institutional corruption and media complicity. First, they unpack bombshell revelations confirming the Russia collusion narrative was a deliberate hoax orchestrated by top Obama-era intelligence officials—John Brennan, James Comey, and James Clapper—who handpicked analysts, suppressed dissent within the CIA, and selectively leaked discredited claims from the Clinton campaign to engineer a societal delusion that crippled the Trump presidency. Next, they detail how left-wing judges are defying Supreme Court precedent to block Trump's border enforcement, effectively ordering open borders to restore Democrat-aligned human trafficking networks and set up a “dictatorship” narrative if Trump defies their rulings. Newsbusters' Curtis Houck joins to discuss the mainstream media's ongoing efforts to cover for radical socialist candidates while losing public trust, as Trump's popularity surges past Ronald Reagan's among Republicans. Together, these stories illustrate a constitutional crisis and the media's collapse as Americans increasingly reject manufactured narratives.

NewsBusters is taking a victory lap for the House vote to claw back funding for PBS and NPR. But The Washington Post went to my neck of Wisconsin and suggested this is bad because "other radio signals are staticky and internet service can be patchy." They'd be "poorer" without the "independent option" of NPR. That's the NPR PR.

A new NewsBusters study finds coverage of Trump has been 92 percent negative. Four years ago, Biden coverage was 59 percent positive. Rich Noyes explains the difference.

Tim Graham, Executive Editor of NewsBusters and is the Media Research Center's Director of Media Analysis. Broadcast Bias on Tariffs — Facts vs. Framing

NewsBusters just published a study demonstrating that ABC's 'The View' is a double-reinforced leftist bubble. Over the last three months, they welcomed on 63 guests pushing a liberal agenda, and zero conservatives or Republicans. Why would we do that? Nick Fondadaro explains.

CNN anchorman Jake Tapper, in 2025, proclaimed on his show that he is NOT on the Left. We know what Tapper is trying to do here with this "I am not taking a side." But in the first Trump term, CNN boss Jeff Zucker made them ALL take a side -- and it certainly wasn't neutral or conservative.

Dan Schneider, Vice President for Free Speech at the Media Research Center, joins me to discuss Big Tech's censorship of conservative voices and the legacy media's unwillingness to reform in the wake of Trump's 2024 election victory. - - -  Today's Sponsor: Helix Sleep - Go to https://helixsleep.com/klavan to get an exclusive offer.
