In a recent email, DC PBS station WETA sent an email to donors still squeezing good will out of "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood." We're told "public media belongs to you," and PBS believes, like Mister Rogers, in sharing "the good that we know is in one another."
Anyone who watches PBS or listens to NPR knows this isn't true. "Public" broadcasting isn't for all of us. It's a liberal sandbox, taking our money and smearing us with it.
I've been documenting the injustice of forcing conservatives to subsidize leftist propaganda on PBS and NPR. Next Wednesday, the House DOGE subcommittee will hold a hearing and the leaders of PBS and NPR will be there to testify.
When we meet with staffers and members of Congress, we tell them about 36 years of evidence. We have a prop -- a six-foot metal tower loaded with paper, representing all our articles documenting the outrageous tilt. Let's hope the weight or the magnitude of this evidence makes it harder for these networks to claim they're fair and balanced. We add new evidence almost every day.
In our latest mini-study, we found the NPR talk show “Fresh Air” has lavished hours on liberal media brands so far in 2025: The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, and other anti-Trump outfits. No conservatives need apply. We found the same thing when we looked at PBS's Washington Week with The Atlantic. There's never room for Fox News or the Washington Times or the Washington Examiner. Only one team gets to play.
The guest list also tilts at the PBS News Hour. On Wednesday’s show, co-host Geoff Bennett conducted a 13-minute interview with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, and it was challenging – from the Left. Bennett asked, “Why not be as tactically ruthless as Republicans have shown themselves to be?” John Thune, the Senate Majority Leader, hasn't been interviewed on PBS this year.
