With the Paris Olympics set to begin on Friday, PBS’s Amanpour and Company devoted their entire show to the games on Thursday, including a wild history lesson on the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, where The Other Olympians: Fascism, Queerness and the Making of Modern Sports author Michael Waters tried to tie Nazism with opposition to transgender ideology.

Monday’s Amanpour & Co., which airs on tax-funded PBS, took advantage of Joe Biden abdicating his re-election campaign to do some Biden-buffing courtesy of Bob Bauer, Biden’s personal lawyer, followed by some Trump-trashing from Sarah Longwell, the “Republican” Never-Trumper, and apparent Kamala Harris booster. 

The following are the nastiest and craziest outbursts from leftist journalists and celebrities during the Republican National Convention:

On Sunday, after President Biden announced he would not run for re-election, political reporter Domenico Montanaro of National Public Radio turned up on PBS News Weekend and sounded exceedingly optimistic about the prospects of the presumptive Democratic nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris. Montanaro engaged in pro-Democrat happy talk and managed to have it both ways,…

The first post-Republican Convention episode of PBS’s journalistic political roundtable Washington Week with The Atlantic spent a long time emphasizing the travails of the Democrats over the mental state of President Joe Biden (who would drop out of the 2024 race on Sunday afternoon). But one panelist saw the bright side in the Democratic meltdown.

PolitiFact may have teamed up with PBS for the remainder of the 2024 election cycle, but perhaps they should be checking PBS News Hour instead because on Friday, host Amna Nawaz falsely claimed Donald Trump was using “more dangerous, kind of, vicious language” in targeting “black and brown immigrants” than he was in 2016.

PBS’s coverage of Night Four of the Republican National Convention again featured the Washington Post’s Jonathan Capehart holding up the liberal end of the political analysis. (David Brooks of the New York Times was the ostensible conservative on the panel, but they often agreed with each other.) Capehart spent most of the four nights of the convention whining that the…

It’s a challenging task but we here at NewsBusters are going to try to sift through all the crazy, angry and ridiculous observations made by leftist journalists every night of the Republican National Convention coverage and pick one for Worst of the Night.

PBS’s biased coverage of Night Three of the Republican National Convention began even before the main event, on Wednesday evening’s PBS News Hour, aiming not only to fact-check the Republicans but even to suggest some Republican voting “misinformation” was dangerous. The tax-funded network’s first fact-check target was…reality TV star, Savannah Chrisley, who discussed her family’s…

PBS’s Christiane Amanpour invited Never Trumper David Frum of The Atlantic to Wednesday's episode of Amanpour and Company, where he delivered his usual rigmarole of anti-Republican nonsense. This time, he downplayed the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, claiming he was using it “in an improper way.”

A debate broke out on Tuesday night between PBS's resident political analyst and forecaster Amy Walter of the Cook Political Report and die-hard Democrat and columnist Jonathan Capehart.

Night Two of coverage of the Republican National Convention was “Make America Safe Once Again,” with politicians and ordinary Americans making speeches relaying stories about crime and the illegal immigration that causes some of that crime. PBS reporters and anchors sounded the alarm from the start, warning that Republicans are trying to instill unwarranted fear and anxiety in voters. At 7:08…

PBS’s coverage of Night One of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee got off to a bad start during an interview with Sen. Ron Johnson, Republican of Wisconsin, who’d just delivered an early speech to the convention delegates. At 8:07 ET, News Hour co-anchor Geoff Bennett, who is hosting the network’s taxpayer-funded convention coverage along with fellow News Hour co…

PolitiFact, one of the fact-checking outlets with the ability to censor your Facebook posts, and PBS, the news channel subsidized by your tax dollars, announced in a joint statement on Friday on their respective websites that they are teaming up for the remainder of the 2024 election cycle, formalizing their June 27 Debate segment.
