PBS Portrays Egypt Team as Beacon of Hope in Gaza, Skips Border Wall
The PBS News Hour’s eternal devotion to the Palestinian cause and anti-Israeli hostility post October 7 massacre was all too apparent on Friday night’s edition, as the News Hour found a new angle to promote the corrosive lie of Israeli forces as vengeful child-maimers. Reporting from Gaza, Nick Schifrin, who has contributed many of those Israel-hostile stories, had the gall to hail the country…
Capehart Insists His Conspiracy Theories Are 'A Healthy Imagination'
MS NOW host Jonathan Capehart joined PBS News Hour on Friday for his weekly participation in recapping the week’s news, which focused heavily on President Trump’s Thursday speech about election integrity. As Capehart spread wild conspiracy theories about Trump seizing ballot boxes, Capehart insisted that such conspiracy theorizing is really just proof that he has “a healthy imagination.”
PBS Boards Trans Train, Hosts ACLU on 'Gender-Affirming Care' for Kids
PBS News Hour White House reporter Liz Landers took up the transgender cause on Friday, hosting Chase Strangio, transgender activist, ACLU lawyer, and biological female. Landers used the same misleading euphemism of “gender-affirming care” to describe irreversible surgical procedures on minors.
STUDY: Be My (Lefty) Guest: PBS's Liberal-Conservative Disparity 5-1
The PBS News Hour marked its 50th anniversary last year (and the show’s first year deprived of taxpayer funding) with a clip package of its coverage of various historical events, while declaring the program had traditionally strove to be “even-handed to a fault.” If that was ever true, the current version of the show, co-anchored by Geoff Bennett and Amna Nawaz, certainly can’t make that claim…
Capehart Does 180 On Platner After Scandals Become Electoral Liability
MS NOW host Jonathan Capehart joined PBS News Hour on Friday to recap the week’s news, which naturally highlighted Graham Platner’s decision to exit the Maine Senate race after being accused of rape amid a long list of other scandals. In contrast to what he said a month ago after the first accusations of violence towards women came out, Capehart declared he was happy to see Platner go because…
PBS Soft-Pedals Radical Dem Abdul El-Sayed, Waterskiing 'Normal Guy'
On Monday’s PBS News Hour, political analyst Carrie Dann, who previously reported from D.C. for NBC News, filled in for her Cook Political Report colleague Amy Walter, but proved more partisan than Walter. She was chirpily optimistic on the prospects of radical Abdul el-Sayed, who’s running for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate in Michigan.
PBS Host Rolls Out Red Carpet for Rahm Emanuel to Rip Bibi a New One
On its website, the PBS News Hour has a fundraising pitch claiming “Independent journalism takes investment.” That’s a hoot! It's apparent on most nights that the News Hour is not at all “independent,” but sounds like MS NOW, like a publicity wagon for Democrats. Take anchorman Geoff Bennett’s wiffle-ball interview with Rahm Emanuel, a potential 2028 president candidate.
ALL the Networks Covered Platner Rape Charge, Often Deep in the Show
All the broadcast network evening newscasts covered the serious rape allegation lodged against Maine’s Democrat Senate nominee Graham Platner, underscoring that Platner is considering discontinuing his campaign, the Maine Democratic Party wants him to step down, and several Democrats in Congress rescinded their endorsements.All this (and the coverage) signals that Democrats think this will…
On PBS, Brooks RIPS DSA 'Authoritarians,' Capehart Says 'Not a Thing'
On Friday's PBS News Hour, pundit David Brooks struck a true centrist pose, denouncing Trump's "authoritarian power grabs," and then trashing the ascendant "authoritarian wing" of the DSA, insisting the Democrats need to reject the left-wing authoritarians. Jonathan Capehart claimed this trend of DSA victories is not yet "a thing," and that New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani is doing just fine.
PBS's Gross Take on Rep. Kean's Depression: Now You'll Vote Correctly?
Sen. Andy Kim’s mean-spirited partisan hackery about Congressman Tom Kean's bout with depression was at least expected. Less defensible was PBS News Hour’s “journalism” piling on about whether Kean's experience would change "his thinking around access to mental health services."
PBS: 'American Dream Is Slipping...Out of Reach' for DACA Illegals
Monday’s PBS News Hour took sides on DACA, the acronym for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, children brought to America by illegal immigrant parents and allowed to stay (known in sympathetic media circles as "The Dreamers," named after a failed Obama-era bill). Co-anchor Geoff Bennett's rendition of the DACA mythos was perhaps the most objectionable part of the segment, in front of a…
PBS on Vance Revisits Nixon: Capehart, Brooks Agree Trump Has No SHAME
The Friday night pundit panel concluded on a historic PBS topic: Watergate. In its earliest years, PBS found it delightful to contribute to President Nixon's political demise, running the Watergate hearings live during the day and repeating them at night. PBS anchor Jim Lehrer was elated: "as justice, it was pure delicious!"
PBS: Sentencing of Antifa After Cop Shooting a 'Crackdown on Dissent'
On Wednesday’s PBS News Hour, co-host Amna Nawaz provided an overheated take on the surprisingly tough sentences given to “anti-ICE protesters” in Texas in the wake of an attempted assassination of a police officer outside a migrant facility by a North Texas Antifa cell. While the evening news shows have ignored the sentencing, PBS did take notice, only to ridiculously condemn the sentences…
PBS Pushes 'The Queer Face of War: Portraits and Stories from Ukraine'
PBS’s (formerly taxpayer funded) News Hour program had some news you could use Tuesday evening -- a monologue from J. Lester Feder, the author of The Queer Face of War: Portraits and Stories from Ukraine. Co-host Geoff Bennett touted a "conversation, but it was actually a four-minute leftist monologue interspersed with shots of trans people.
