PBS Hosts LGBTQ Journo-Activist to Label SCOTUS Victor a ‘Hate Group'
The Supreme Court ended its term with several major decisions favorable to conservatives, and tax-funded public broadcasting, which is ostensibly objective, failed to hide its displeasure in its Friday evening analysis, including its take on the Court’s 6-3 decision in the 303 CREATIVE LLC case, that a website designer in Colorado had a First Amendment right to refuse to design…

AP Warns of 'Far Right,' But Touts 'Drag Laureates' in San Francisco
Washington Free Beacon media reporter Drew Holden flagged a story on "far-right" Republicans in Tennessee from the Associated Press.

NPR Uses Nikki Haley Launch to Cry GOP Racism: 'Disgusted With...GOP'
Nikki Haley served as the U.N. ambassador under President Trump. Before that she was South Carolina’s first female governor.

NY Times Uses Speaker Vote to Tar GOP 'Far Right,' 'Ultraconservative'
The New York Times took advantage of the Republican kerfuffle around the days of voting it took to install House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy as House Speaker, to wedge in as many scary “far-right” style labels and frantic messaging as it could throughout several days of intense coverage.
