Fox-Hating NPR Reporter Calmly Promotes CNN Max Like a CNN Employee

The Fox News debate on Wednesday led inevitably to NPR media reporter David Folkenflik performing stories number 45 and 46 this year against Fox News. But on Friday night, his report on CNN Max sounded more like an advertisement than a news report. At NPR, CNN is just a "news organization," not a hyperpartisan and conspiratorial channel.

PBS Roundtable Hails Haley, But GOP ‘Emboldened to Say Racist Things'

It’s clear who would win PBS’s vote for the Republican Party nomination: Former South Carolina Gov.

CNN Tonight host Laura Coates previewed the 60th anniversary of the March on Washington on Friday by welcoming The Beat Goes On director Mario Van Peebles and executive producer who promptly used the occasion to push not only left-wing agendas, such as abortion, but to spread fake news about how Florida Republicans make it “illegal to read about an enslaved person.”
