POLL: What Was the Worst Media Take of the Week?
PBS Finds Mostly 'Non-Violent,' 'Festival-like' Atmosphere in L.A.
Tuesday’s PBS News Hour led off with special correspondent Marcia Biggs’ nearly nine-minute segment from downtown Los Angeles, ground zero in the confrontation between Trump’s immigration enforcement and protests that often devolved into looting and rioting. Co-anchors Amna Nawaz and Geoff Bennett noted that “700 Marines and 2,000 additional National Guard troops began arriving” on…
Most Biased PBS Reporter Tries to Transform Trump Into an Anti-Semite
PBS News Hour’s most biased reporter, White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez, filed a wide-ranging story Monday about some of the more controversial figures in the orbit of Donald Trump’s administration, yet also spread the ridiculous notion that Trump himself is an anti-Semite (if so, he’s doing a very bad job of it). Her sole guest was Jacob Ware, co-author of God, Guns,…
Hypocrites: PBS Criticizes Federal Arts Funding Cuts, Then Bashes Debt
When it’s not bashing Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” for furthering the national debt, the PBS News Hour works hard to poison the well against any reductions in federal spending. Thursday’s edition featured 19 minutes of coverage of the bill emphasizing trillions of dollars being added to the national debt. Yet the night before, PBS dug up yet another sob story about relatively small…
LGBT-PBS Cues Up Leftist RAGE at Trump's 'Horrific' Anti-Trans Actions
It's June, so it’s natural that PBS would kick off “Pride Month” by broadcasting a completely one-sided interview condemning Trump’s “horrific” actions directed at the T in LGBT.
Brooks Invokes Pol Pot, Mao, Stalin To Mark Musk's Departure From DOGE
New York Times columnist David Brooks did the not-so-clever trick of insisting he wasn’t saying what he was indeed saying on Friday’s edition of PBS News Hour as he reflected back on Elon Musk’s time at DOGE by comparing him to Pol Pot, Mao Zedong, and Joseph Stalin.
NPR Chief Tries Comedy on PBS: 'We're a Nonpartisan News Organization'
Katherine Maher, CEO of National Public Radio, continued her sympathy tour to save NPR from the Trump administration’s executive order, with a pit stop at NPR’s publicly funded cohort, PBS’s News Hour program. When gently challenged that Trump says NPR lacks viewpoint diversity, she comically claimed: "I first of all, respond by saying we're a nonpartisan news organization."
PBS News Hour Platforms Three Far-Left Democrat Primary Challengers
PBS claims that they’re just great at promoting a diversity of viewpoints, but in reality, they mostly channel the left, and sometimes the far left….and they won’t identify them as left. On Monday, the News Hour promoted three leftist Democrats running in House or Senate primaries.
STUDY: Be My (Leftist) Guest Again: Bias Still Reigns Supreme at PBS
Paula Kerger, chief executive of the taxpayer-subsidized Public Broadcasting Service (PBS), recently told the New York Times, “In terms of the news, we work really hard to try to bring multiple viewpoints forward.” But as the second Trump administration begins and PBS comes under unprecedented existential pressure from the administration for its liberally biased evening news product,…
PBS Attacks GOP For Deficits While Attacking Spending Cuts
The trio of PBS News Hour host Geoff Bennett, Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart, and New York Times columnist David Brooks tried to have it both ways on Friday. The three men attacked the GOP’s Big Beautiful Bill for its negative effects on the deficit, but also its spending cuts, meaning PBS either wants to raise most people's taxes, but is too…
PBS News Hour Finally Turns to Tapper & Thompson, Winces at 'Coverup'
Surprise! The PBS News Hour finally arrived on the Jake Tapper-Alex Thompson book after ignoring it longer than the other networks. PBS anchor Geoff Bennett began by suggesting the word "coverup" might be a "loaded phrase."
PBS Twists Democratic Shoving, Discrimination Into Trump REVENGE
On Wednesday’s edition of the PBS News Hour, co-anchor Geoff Bennett twisted a legitimate arrest of a Democratic congresswoman for pushing and shoving federal agents into a Trump revenge tour against his “perceived political adversaries.” As if a victim of Democratic lawfare and two assassination attempts doesn’t have actual enemies?
Tariff Tensions: CNN Panel Calls Trump 'Authoritarian' Over Tariffs
On Tuesday night’s episode of CNN’s The Source with Kaitlan Collins, Jim Scuitto spoke with Laura Barron-Lopez of PBS NewsHour and Reuter’s Jim Mason, who called President Trump “authoritarian” and blamed the MAGA movement for fundamentally changing the Republican Party for the worst, simply over the Trump administration’s tariff policies.
PBS Fights Tooth and Nail for $1B Americorps Spending, Laments Debt
More than any other news network, the PBS News Hour has devoted the first few months of the second Trump administration focusing on the sad stories of Trump administration budget reductions, finding sympathetic victims to more effectively personalize the trauma and harm supposedly done. Then it turns around and runs a story about Moody’s downgrading the U.S. credit rating due to the…
