PBS Skips Jew-Free Zones at UCLA While Weeping for Academic Freedom
Tuesday’s PBS News Hour committed some serious bias by omission in Stephane Sy’s report from the campus of UCLA, home to actual Jew exclusion zones during the 2024 wave of pro-Hamas protests that plagued progressive college campuses. This August, UCLA settled with three Jewish students and a Jewish professor over the university failing to protect their civil rights against…

CBS News Trumpwashes BBC Scandal That ABC and NBC Nightlies OMITTED
The Elitist Media seem to have been made very uncomfortable by the recent resignations of two BBC executives, after outrage over a documentary that aired manipulated video of President Donald Trump’s speech at The Ellipse on January 6th, 2021.

Frontline's Latest Hit Piece Against Opposing Violent German Migrants
PBS’s newest Frontline documentary, “The Rise of Germany's New Right” concerns the rise of the AfD in Germany (Alternative for Germany) party and it’s supposed links to Nazism and Putin's Russia.

Capehart Attacks GOP For 'Cruelty' Amid Shutdown He Supported
The last month has been difficult for MSNBC host and PBS News Hour contributor Jonathan Capehart’s intellectual consistency, as he can’t decide whether the government shutdown is proof that Democrats are finally growing a spine or, as he claimed on Friday, whether “there’s a meanness and a cruelty” to the shutdown that is all Republicans’ fault.
PBS Worries That Midterm Elections Will Be Like Those In Russia
Thursday’s edition of PBS’s Amanpour and Company went off the rails when guest host Bianna Golodryga welcomed The Atlantic staff writer David Graham to discuss supposed threats to next year’s midterm elections.

Co-anchor Geoff Bennett interviewed the pair on Tuesday’s News Hour. The…
No Respect: PBS Piles on Cheney's 'Polarizing...Controversial' Legacy
PBS News Hour’s coverage Tuesday of the death of former Republican vice president Dick Cheney wasn't particularly generous for an obituary, bookended with belittling jabs at Cheney from both anchor and reporter. Co-anchor Amna Nawaz: “….and we examine the life of the highly…
Oh SNAP! PBS News Devotes First 14 Minutes to Alleged US Hunger Crisis
The PBS News Hour devoted the first 14 minutes of Monday’s show to the supposedly dire emergency that Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP benefits, known colloquially as food stamps) ran out two days ago during the ongoing federal government “shutdown” before a ruling that the government must fund the food aid. First up, a Lisa Desjardins report from various food banks…
Media Elitists Rage Against Trump and His ‘Nazi’ Pals, Praise Antifa
In the month before Election Day, leftist journalists and celebrities have been pushing the absurd idea that democracy was on the line because President Donald Trump and his “Nazi” pals have been using his “stormtroopers” to attack his “political enemies” and that he renovated the White House because Trump “plans” on never leaving. The following are just some of the most obnoxious outbursts by…
PBS Plugs Jon Karl's Book, Comparing Trump to 'Breaking Bad' Kingpin
