FLASHBACK: Recalling Years of Liberal Media Mockery of CPAC
For years, both journalists and late-night comics have ridiculed CPAC as akin to “the bar scene in Star Wars,” “an aviary for far-right ‘wacko birds,’” and an “audience of malignant children.”
PBS Omits James Biden Testimony, Obsesses Over New Russiagate Angle
On Wednesday, President Biden's brother James testified in the House impeachment inquiry. The PBS NewsHour aired an eight-minute segment on the Biden impeachment that never mentioned James Biden once. Instead, they obsessed over a new Russian-interference angle, as if they forgot the perennial falsehood of the "collusion" conspiracy theories?
PBS: Biden Special Counsel Was Performing for 'MAGA Republicans'
The PBS NewsHour Friday followed up its ridiculously supportive story Thursday evening on mentally declining President Joe Biden who held a presser to lash out at a damning special counsel report documenting his false statements about how he treated classified documents, as well as documenting his problems remembering important events. Thursday night's program featured, as its expert…
PBS Smears Speaker Johnson as Christian Extremist Linked to January 6
From Amanpour & Co. to the PBS NewsHour, public television is all over the threat of “Christian Nationalism” as the 2024 presidential campaign gathers steam. Thursday evening’s edition featured perhaps the most conservative-hostile reporter on staff, White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez, to offer its taxpayer-funded liberal alarmism regarding devout Trump…
PBS Smear Hour: Accusing Trump, Fox, and GOP of ‘Dog-Whistle’ Racism
The taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour fiercely attacked both presidential candidate Donald Trump and its journalistic competitors Fox News for racism in a segment that appeared online under the heading “Trump deploys racist tactics as Biden rematch appears likely.” They reached back to smear Nixon and Reagan as well as they talked to a leftist about "dog-whistle politics."
PBS Crowns Biden Savior of Democracy vs Trump's 'Stochastic Terrorism'
The PBS NewsHour on Friday ran with the anti-Trump talking points from the Joe Biden re-election campaign, with Biden posing as defender of democracy at the historical site Valley Forge, painting Donald Trump as a danger to democracy (never mind Biden’s Democratic Party throwing Trump off the ballot in two states and counting). Nawaz used loaded liberal language, claiming Biden was “…
PBS Touts Media 'Obligation' to Trash Trump in the Name of 'Democracy'
It was a triple-liberal-team up against Donald Trump on Tuesday’s edition of the taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour with an interview segment headlined online, “How media organizations are facing the task of covering Trump’s anti-democratic rhetoric.” (Ironically, the segment on the dangers Trump posed to democracy was introduced with news that Trump had been removed from the ballot in…
PBS: Genocidal Chant Just a Call to 'Live Freely Alongside Israelis'?
Monday’s edition of the PBS NewsHour featured disturbing equivocation about the Hamas slogan "from the river to the sea," a reference to the eradication of Israel. Reporter Laura Barron-Lopez made her own offensive statement. Both Jews and Hamas-adjacent anti-Semites know what it means when pro-Palestinian mobs shout “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” but Barron-Lopez…
PBS: Trump ‘Would Turn Presidency Into Dictatorship’ If Left on Ballot
As part of its endless cycle of being scandalized by Donald Trump, PBS NewsHour correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez interviewed liberal Harvard professor Laurence Tribe to explain how apparently wrong it was for a judge to rule Trump was eligible to be on the 2024 ballot in Colorado. PBS renewed its recent habit of using a single source to amplify a fringe liberal or anti-Trump argument…
PBS Priorities:Fretting Over Phony ‘Islamophobia,’ Not Actual Jew-Hate
Thursday’s PBS NewsHour indulged in offensive moral equivalence, pretending Islamophobia in the United States was as big a threat to public safety than the current wave of violent anti-Semitism hitting progressive cities and college campuses, while also sliming Fox News hosts as endangering Muslims. Host Geoff Bennett’s segment led with “Islamophobia,” even while Jews are under attack…
Journos Push Hamas Propaganda, Compare New GOP Speaker to David Duke
On October 7 the world witnessed a horrific attack on Israel by Hamas terrorists. Yet shockingly and disgustingly there were some in the journalism community who actually sympathized with Hamas. Well those leftists are still at it, as they passed along Hamas propaganda as factual and called any opposition to a ceasefire racist. The following are just some of the worst outbursts from leftists…
PBS Reporter: Dems Who Don't Condemn Hamas Are Just Netanyahu Critics
PBS NewsHour White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez joined CNN’s Inside Politics panel on Wednesday to discuss how progressives are reacting to the Israeli-Hamas War and to suggest that Democrats who refused to condemn terrorism did so, not because they hate Israel, but because they are simply critics of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
NewsBusters Podcast: The Red-Hot Republican Haters at PBS NewsHour
The P in PBS doesn't really stand for "Public." The PBS NewsHour hates the Republican half of the public, and finds it easy to put on guests that compare today's Trump Republicans with Hitler and the mass-murdering Nazis. And yet they support using body counts from Hamas....
Reporters Use Biden Presser to Bash GOP, Push Conspiracies, Back Hamas
During a rare Biden White House press conference with a foreign leader (this time, it was Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese), the two pre-selected American reporters — USA Today’s Joey Garrison and PBS’s Laura Barrón-López — promoted leftist narratives, whether it’s attacking Republicans as responsible for America to hemorrhage its global standing, suggesting the GOP would…
