News Hour

CAIR, the Council for American-Islamic Relations, is an Islamic pressure group masquerading as a Muslim civil rights organization. The Hamas massacre in Israel has brought it back in the news on the taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour – but not for its previously documented links to the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas. No, the PBS producers somehow thought it was a good idea to book an…

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…

The taxpayer-subsidized Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) has a federally mandated obligation to deliver an objective take on public affairs. Yet a new Media Research Center study finds PBS’s flagship NewsHour program aired nine times more coverage in favor of the left-wing "woke" position on so-called "LGBTQ" issues compared to more traditional positions, while 95% of in-studio…

The taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour program caught up to the second Republican presidential debate on Thursday evening and predictably characterized it as a sad mess. One of the paper’s most Republican-hostile reporters, White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez, pounced on some of the Republican responses and fact-checked them after the fact, in keeping with the show’s progressive…

Even on a newscast preceding that night’s GOP presidential debate, the tax-supported PBS NewsHour kept its focus on former president Donald Trump, inviting former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson on to promote her book, Enough, about her traumatic experiences in the Trump White House and how dangerous it would be for Trump to win a second term of office. You may remember…

California Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein was a liberal stalwart who took up extreme positions against Second Amendment rights and harmful environmental policies. But when it was announced on Friday that she had passed away overnight, the liberal media choir joined their voices to gaslight Americans and falsely proclaim her a “centrist Democrat” who simply leaned towards “liberal…

The "public" broadcasting elite loathes Fox News. When news broke that 92-year-old media mogul Rupert Murdoch, Fox News founder and chairman of News Corp, is stepping down in favor of his son Lachlan, that encouraged tax-funded PBS to trot out Murdoch-bashing journalist David Folkenflik of tax-funded National Public Radio on Thursday evening to lament the chairman’s "corrosive" right-…

For PBS NewsHour’s regular weekly recap on Friday with New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart, the news that the national debt surpassed $33 trillion was deemed so unimportant that it was not mentioned. What was considered important are the internal power dynamics within the Republican Party.

New York Times columnist David Brooks went viral on "Twitter" on Wedneday for a tweet displaying a burger, fries, and a glass of booze. "This meal just cost me $78 at Newark Airport. This is why Americans think the economy is terrible." Brooks was so roundly mocked that on Friday's PBS NewsHour, he offered an apology that he was "stupid" and insensitive. 

Attorney General Merrick Garland offered a “fiery defense” in a “grueling hearing” of a House Judiciary Committee “stocked with far-right stalwarts,” as The New York Times described it. A special bucket of opprobrium should go to what they call “public broadcasting,” PBS and NPR. On the PBS NewsHour, they could barely manage a two-minute story on the Garland hearing.

President Biden made his 2023 address Tuesday morning to the United Nations General Assembly and, as predicted, the liberal media were there to swoon over it like North Korean propagandists. MSNBC played that role, touting it as a “comprehensive” set of remarks with “powerful” and “positive” messaging that showed concern for climate change and Ukraine.
