A WGN Chicago news reader mistakenly referred to Sidney Powell as a man while reading a prompter.

Elizabeth Warren is called out for repeated mathematical errors during the debate while explaining her proposed wealth tax, specifically confusing "millions" and "billions." The hosts argue that the moderators' failure to correct her demonstrates a clear bias in favor of her candidacy. They describe the event as "The Elizabeth Warren Show," noting that she received a disproportionate amount of speaking time in the first half-hour.

A news report regarding a shooting incident on April 25 was criticized for claiming the event occurred "almost two years to the day" of the July 7 Dallas police ambush. The discrepancy between April and July is highlighted as an example of the media shoehorning narratives to create emotional resonance where the dates do not actually align.

CBS News incorrectly reported that former Congressman Mike Rogers is the current head of the House Intelligence Committee while discussing him as a candidate for FBI Director. Rogers left Congress in 2015 to become a talk show host, an error that underscores a lack of fact-checking in major network news.

A discrepancy in the reporting of the Chattanooga shooting is identified regarding victim Skip Wells. A news clip is played where it is claimed Wells died in Iraq in 2009, despite him being named as a victim of the 2015 Chattanooga attack. The hosts question the accuracy of the reporting and the "six-week cycle" of such events.

A screenshot from a recent ISIS propaganda video appears to show a key left in the lock of a cage containing a prisoner. The hosts suggest this oversight undermines the professional image of the terror group's media production. They argue that internet users will inevitably find and highlight such mistakes in staged propaganda.
