NPR Champions 'Joyful Blowout' of Drag Queens for Climate Activism
As Congress debates defunding PBS and NPR in part because they are relentless liberal propaganda, Friday night's All Things Considered newscast on NPR championed...drag queens for climate activism. It's like Mad Libs for mad leftists.

MRC VP Dan Schneider Expresses Optimism on Senate Defunding PBS, NPR
MRC Vice President Dan Schneider appeared Thursday on the hot morning D.C. talk show O’Connor & Co. on WMAL-FM to discuss the potential clawback of $1.1 billion in funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), which funds the PBS and NPR networks. It passed the House, and needs to pass the Senate soon. "I think it passes," Schneider said after witnessing the Senate…

Column: Broadcast Love Letters for Lisa Murkowski
Here’s how it's so easy to identify the national media as liberal Democrats: They hate “moderate” Democrats. They love moderate Republicans. They despise disunity in their party, and love to fester disunity in the Other Party. This week, we’ve witnessed an outpouring of love for Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, which you would never see for a Joe Manchin.

CBS Airs Badly Disguised Ad for 'Public' Radio In Louisiana
Liberal journalists rush to the support of other liberal journalists to insure the wider distribution of liberal bias. That’s why you see networks like CBS rushing to defend “public” radio in "rural" Shreveport, Louisiana (pop. 187,000). CBS headlined its online story: "Inside a Louisiana NPR station threatened by federal cuts: 'Without it, people would die'."

NPR Valorizes Old Left Protester: 'Crystalizing Moment' for Anti-Trump
In Friday’s online NPR piece “The story behind the arrest of 87-year-old veteran John Spitzberg at the Capitol,” Alina Hartounian, who edits and writes for NPR.org, made a hero of an elderly activist protesting the recent U.S. military parade, who got arrested. NPR played the feisty old man angle hard to an embarrassing extent. The report began in medias res, the reporter striving to…

Jim Acosta Wants BIG $$$ Infusion to PBS and NPR, 'Too Big to Fail'
Earlier, we noted former CNN White House screamer Jim Acosta's appearance on Tuesday at a panel at the Center for American Progress. But it's still worth isolating Acosta's remarks on how there should be a big cash infusion into PBS and NPR, to make them "too big to fail."

Google’s Gemini drastically changed its answer on radical content targeting children once it became clear that taxpayer money was on the line.

NewsBusters Podcast: Defunding PBS/NPR Is Not a Cow Town's Nightmare
NewsBusters is taking a victory lap for the House vote to claw back funding for PBS and NPR. But The Washington Post went to my neck of Wisconsin and suggested this is bad because "other radio signals are staticky and internet service can be patchy." They'd be "poorer" without the "independent option" of NPR. That's the NPR PR.

GOP Vote to Defund CPB Skipped by ABC, NBC, NY Times, and WashPost
While conservatives at NewsBusters and elsewhere celebrate a major win as the House passed a rescission package that would claw back $1.1 billion in federal funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the liberal media didn’t greet that as a big deal at all.

Column: Endangered NPR Never Stops Ripping Conservatives
So the House Republicans voted to end taxpayer funding for PBS and NPR. NPR CEO Katherine Maher has repeatedly claimed, in the face of avalanches of evidence, that she has never witnessed any bias at NPR. That’s beyond ridiculous. You can find it, day after day, hour on the hour. This week’s Los Angeles rioting provided plenty of exhibits.

NPR CEO Claims Federal Funding Needed For Safe Drinking Water
NPR CEO Katherine Maher recently traveled to London for the city’s SXSW festival because, apparently, she thinks London is the place to be when she needs to convince American lawmakers not to rescind her federal funding. While in London, Maher sat down for an interview with CNN International’s Max Foster that aired on his Monday installment of What We Know, where she insisted that NPR…

Google’s AI Can’t Say Exactly How Much NPR/PBS Get in Taxpayer Dollars
Google may be NPR and PBS’s partners in crime, but even the tech giant’s AI chatbot Gemini can’t run cover for the leftist outlets’ taxpayer-funded shell game.

Ex-NPR Editor Uri Berliner Calls ‘BS’ on NPR’s Awful Jewish Coverage
The Thursday episode of the “Ask a Jew” podcast hosted Uri Berliner, former senior business editor at NPR, who was suspended and later resigned from the outlet for his damning critique of the insular liberal bias of taxpayer funded NPR. Hosts Yael Bar-tur and Chaya Leah Sufrin asked Berliner about how NPR covered Israel, and the resulting discussion was withering. Berliner characterized one…
