PBS 'Expert' Says GOP 'Hardliners' Are Ruining the Impeachment Power
On Saturday's PBS News Weekend, anchor John Yang and his appointed expert Sarah Binder discussed how Republican "hardliners" are weaponizing impeachment.
What a Report on South Korea's Dog-Eating Ban Teaches Us About PBS
The Public Broadcasting System is often exposed for what it is: a publicly-funded hotbed of progressive propaganda disguised as news. Left-wing biases hard-baked into its editorial lines and delivered with calm tones. But if you look hard enough, from time to time you’ll find a report that exemplifies what news delivery should be.
PBS Marks Fringe Liberal Win: Old MN Flag 'Cluttered, Genocidal Mess'
Taxpayer-funded PBS once again pushed a fringe issue into the forefront of the news. This time it was a purely symbolic one. Saturday’s PBS News Weekend, devoted a full five minutes to Minnesota’s move to replace its state flag, staggeringly described by PBS as “what one critic called a cluttered, genocidal mess,” with a less offensive design. Well, that escalated…
PBS Crowns Biden Savior of Democracy vs Trump's 'Stochastic Terrorism'
The PBS NewsHour on Friday ran with the anti-Trump talking points from the Joe Biden re-election campaign, with Biden posing as defender of democracy at the historical site Valley Forge, painting Donald Trump as a danger to democracy (never mind Biden’s Democratic Party throwing Trump off the ballot in two states and counting). Nawaz used loaded liberal language, claiming Biden was “…
PBS's Phony Claudine Gay Debate: Both Sides Agree Critics Are Racist
Tuesday’s PBS NewsHour dealt with the resignation of Harvard President Claudine Gay, a shocking move fueled by her botched performance at a congressional hearing on pro-Hamas protests held on progressive college campuses. Gay was further doomed by myriad examples of plagiarism within her incredibly modest collection (for a Harvard president) of published research. But tax-funded PBS…
Huh? Capehart: 'Untrue' Dems Are Trying To Kick Trump Off The Ballot
Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart unleashed a real headscratcher on Friday’s PBS NewsHour as he took exception to the idea that Democrats are trying to kick Donald Trump off the ballot, declaring such claims to be “untrue” and Democrats have “nothing to do with” the efforts. Don’t expect Glenn Kessler to fact-check this one.
PBS Anchor Reluctantly Asks Mayorkas About House GOP Impeachment Drive
On January 4, PBS NewsHour anchor Amna Nawaz interviewed Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for nine minutes, but didn't get to the House Republican impeachment drive until the last question. Shouldn't that be the first question? Not when it's Republicans doing the impeaching.
PBS Touts ‘Citizen Investigators....Helping the FBI Track Down' J6ers
Wednesday’s edition of the PBS NewsHour featured veteran journalist Judy Woodruff cheering on an obsessive group of “citizen investigators” who have teamed up with the media’s favorite domestic surveillance organization to turn in people who entered the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021: “How citizen investigators are helping the FBI track down Jan. 6 rioters.” One suspects…
PBS’s Nawaz Quotes Hamas ‘Health Officials,' Goads Israel Ambassador
Taxpayer-supported PBS again showed its ongoing hostility toward Israel in its war in Gaza against the terrorist group Hamas on Wednesday’s night episode of the NewsHour. The initial sympathy the NewsHour showed for Israel’s plight after the brutal October 7 invasion has been replaced by endless doomsaying over unavoidable civilian casualties in a war where one side, Hamas,…
'TERRIBLE Decision': David Brooks Slams Maine Taking Trump Off Ballot
It's always a surprise when David Brooks actually fights with Jonathan Capehart on the Friday night panel on the PBS NewsHour. But he denounced Maine's Democrat Secretary of State taking Donald Trump off the primary ballot, saying it was not just a "terrible decision," but an "even worse threat to democracy" than Colorado's Supreme Court ripping Trump off the ballot.
PBS Takes Up Issue of Homelessness, But Biden Blame Is Brushed Off
On Christmas Eve, PBS News Weekend found the publicly-funded outlet pushing that old "war on poverty" agenda that not even other networks are covering: homelessness. This used to be a larger issue for PBS and the press, which was at home criticizing Republican presidents for people on the street during the late 1980s, blaming Reagan and Bush. But blame for Biden was brushed…
PBS Turns to Obama Lawyer to Hail Colorado Removing Trump from Ballot
Neal Katyal, former Obama administration acting U.S. Solicitor General and now frequent pro-Democratic MSNBC guest, was the partisan choice of Wednesday evening’s PBS NewsHour as its sole expert opinion-giver on the controversial ruling by the Democratic-majority of the Colorado Supreme Court to remove Donald Trump from the presidential ballot in 2024, under the U.S.…
PBS Touts Media 'Obligation' to Trash Trump in the Name of 'Democracy'
It was a triple-liberal-team up against Donald Trump on Tuesday’s edition of the taxpayer-supported PBS NewsHour with an interview segment headlined online, “How media organizations are facing the task of covering Trump’s anti-democratic rhetoric.” (Ironically, the segment on the dangers Trump posed to democracy was introduced with news that Trump had been removed from the ballot in…
PBS: Pope Francis Has ‘Gained Adoration’ For His LGBTQ+ Inclusion
Slot him into the media’s “Strange New Respect for Religion” category: Pope Francis, beloved by liberals for his “progressive” tack toward the LGBTQ movement -- and hostility toward conservative Catholics. PBS Weekend was the latest to genuflect toward the “social reform” minded (i.e. liberal-pleasing) pontiff on Saturday.
