After perhaps 48 hours of sympathy for Israel after the anti-Jewish pogrom by Hamas, the pivot in the mainstream, pro-Palestinian press is afoot. The PBS NewsHour team demonstrated offensive moral equivalency in a special one-hour report on Friday, War in the Middle East, with host Amna Nawaz in Tel Aviv. According to the opening narration, October 7 is a day of horror for…

President Joe Biden managed to clear the lowest of low bars this week by not joining in with the radical left’s attempts to defend or add “context” to Hamas’s savage attack on Israel, but still, this led New York Times columnist David Brooks to hail the idea that “this was one of Joe Biden's best weeks as president” on Friday’s PBS NewsHour.

The PBS NewsHour interviewed House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries on Thursday night about Israel, Ukraine, and the Republican failure to elect a new Speaker of the House. Co-host Geoff Bennett asked Jeffries nothing that might be embarrassing to the Democrats -- nothing about Jamaal Bowman, or Bob Menendez, or Rashida Tlaib, or Team Biden financially enabling Iran to aid Hamas. 

On Tuesday, the tax-funded PBS NewsHour feted Democrat Hillary Clinton, now a professor at Columbia University at the new Institute of Global Politics. She was also the losing Democratic presidential in 2016 candidate, and PBS commiserated with her with the “trauma” of losing an election to a Republican, while tarring the Trump-led GOP as extremists and letting the president himself…

New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart joined PBS NewsHour host Geoff Bennett on Friday for their regularly scheduled recap of the week’s top stories. The trio warned that because Republicans have “no evidence” or “holy cow” moment, they are “cheapening the whole impeachment process.”

The Tuesday edition of the taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour featured liberal political writer Franklin Foer talking about his new biography of President Biden. But don’t expect Foer’s book, The Last President, to be a harsh expose like the dozens of books written about former President Trump. Foer just told NBC’s Meet the Press anchor Chuck Todd that Biden "has been…

The Thursday edition of the taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour featured host Geoff Bennett cynically using two recent murders, one of a gay dancer and another a LGBT bookstore owning ally, to bash Republicans as the perpetrators. Bennett spoke to the spokesman of the…

On Tuesday the PBS NewsHour explored how some investment firms and state comptrollers who have built their clients financial portfolios using the philosophy of “ESG” (environmental, social, and governance factors) ware facing "backlash." ESG investment standards could include investing in companies that fight so-called climate change, or investing in companies that make “equity and…

On Friday’s NewsHour, PBS’s “conservative” pundit David Brooks sound like a Biden re-election flack, touting the President’s “incredibly strong economic recovery,” his “pretty good international peacekeeping efforts,” and who “sends off all the right cultural messages.....Democrats are not grateful enough for what they have.”

Wednesday’s PBS NewsHour featured a chat with radical (Pulitzer Prize winning) journalist Wesley Lowery about his new book on how white Americans and the Republican Party became scared and possibly dangerous racists after Barack Obama’s election. Lowery is making the book-tour rounds publicizing American Whitelash. Lowery, formerly a journalist for the Washington Post…
