PBS Compares Kid-Vid Host Who Accuses Israel of Genocide to Mr. Rogers
PBS’s Amanpour & Co. host Christiane Amanpour showed off her anti-Israel bona fides in a novel way on Thursday, inviting on to her international affairs talk show not a foreign diplomat or dignitary, but "Ms. Rachel," a creator of educational videos for children, with a big helping of Hamas-adjacent propaganda.

Remember When Krugman Implied BLS Was Fudging Numbers? He Sure Doesn’t

'HUGE Transfer of Wealth': Amanpour Turns PBS Into Socialist Channel
Thursday’s edition of Amanpour & Co., which appears on taxpayer-funded PBS, veered even further left than usual with a glowing interview of Mr. Socialist himself, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).

PBS Promotes Elie Mystal's Rage: Immigration Laws Are Deeply Racist
One easy way to prove that PBS and NPR are like taxpayer-funded MSNBC is their promotion of radical ranter Elie Mystal of The Nation magazine.

On March 24, NPR's Fresh Air platformed his rage for 36…
