For 250, PBS Spotlights Springsteen Through Trump-Loathing Glory Haze
PBS made a classic Democrat programming choice to mark the 250th anniversary weekend: A half-hour “PBS News Special” on a famous populist rocker and songwriter turned blunt leftist political activist: “Bruce Springsteen: Finding America in Song.” The show featured sit-down interview by PBS News Hour host Geoff Bennett with the 76-year-old “Boss” himself, with a little music…
PBS's Favorite Radical Prof: Expelling Haitians Is 'American Fascism'
Jason Stanley, left-wing professor and author of How Fascism Works, who fled to Canada to escape President Trump yet somehow feels compelled to appear on TV to bash his abandoned home, made another appearance on PBS on Amanpour & Co just in time to mark America’s 250th anniversary, in order to declare his previous home a fascist state under Trump and Republican…
On PBS, Brooks RIPS DSA 'Authoritarians,' Capehart Says 'Not a Thing'
On Friday's PBS News Hour, pundit David Brooks struck a true centrist pose, denouncing Trump's "authoritarian power grabs," and then trashing the ascendant "authoritarian wing" of the DSA, insisting the Democrats need to reject the left-wing authoritarians. Jonathan Capehart claimed this trend of DSA victories is not yet "a thing," and that New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani is doing just…
PBS's Gross Take on Rep. Kean's Depression: Now You'll Vote Correctly?
Sen. Andy Kim’s mean-spirited partisan hackery about Congressman Tom Kean's bout with depression was at least expected. Less defensible was PBS News Hour’s “journalism” piling on about whether Kean's experience would change "his thinking around access to mental health services."
PBS: 'American Dream Is Slipping...Out of Reach' for DACA Illegals
Monday’s PBS News Hour took sides on DACA, the acronym for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, children brought to America by illegal immigrant parents and allowed to stay (known in sympathetic media circles as "The Dreamers," named after a failed Obama-era bill). Co-anchor Geoff Bennett's rendition of the DACA mythos was perhaps the most objectionable part of the segment, in…
PBS 'Frontline' Doc Tries Blaming Abraham Accords For October 7
PBS debuted its latest Frontline documentary on Tuesday entitled The Crown Prince & The President, which sought to examine the relationship between President Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

PBS on Vance Revisits Nixon: Capehart, Brooks Agree Trump Has No SHAME
The Friday night pundit panel concluded on a historic PBS topic: Watergate. In its earliest years, PBS found it delightful to contribute to President Nixon's political demise, running the Watergate hearings live during the day and repeating them at night. PBS anchor Jim Lehrer was elated: "as justice, it was pure delicious!"
PBS: Sentencing of Antifa After Cop Shooting a 'Crackdown on Dissent'
On Wednesday’s PBS News Hour, co-host Amna Nawaz provided an overheated take on the surprisingly tough sentences given to “anti-ICE protesters” in Texas in the wake of an attempted assassination of a police officer outside a migrant facility by a North Texas Antifa cell. While the evening news shows have ignored the sentencing, PBS did take notice, only to ridiculously condemn the…
PBS Pushes 'The Queer Face of War: Portraits and Stories from Ukraine'
PBS’s (formerly taxpayer funded) News Hour program had some news you could use Tuesday evening -- a monologue from J. Lester Feder, the author of The Queer Face of War: Portraits and Stories from Ukraine. Co-host Geoff Bennett touted a "conversation, but it was actually a four-minute leftist monologue interspersed with shots of trans people.
WEIRD: Networks OMIT Landmark Gun Rights Ruling from SCOTUS Roundups
In a weird case of bias by omission, the broadcast network newscasts all neglected to cover a landmark gun rights ruling by the Supreme Court, even as they all did roundups covering the several decisions handed down. Instead, they whined about the two opinions that bolstered the Trump administration’s immigration policies.
Panic! PBS News Hour Pushes Eco-Hysteria, from Northwest to Deep South
The PBS News Hour took the channel’s standard environmental alarmism to the boiling point this week. From the glaciers of Washington State to sweltering south Georgia farmland, “climate change” is coming for coastal communities and farmland. Ben Tracy, long-time environmental activist reporter for CBS, now does occasional scaremongering environmental tours for the News Hour.…
PBS Cries Fascism At People Opposed To Admitting 'Climate Refugees'
It was progressive buzzword bingo night on PBS during Monday’s Amanpour and Company as host Bianna Golodryga welcomed environmental activist and director Josh Fox to promote his new HBO documentary. According to Fox, it is fascist to oppose the mass admittance of “climate refugees” into the U.S. and the developed world should pay reparations for colonialism, which is also to blame for…
PBS Falsely Praises Obama Embracing McCain, Romney as Shrine Opens
The opening of the brutalist Barack Obama Presidential Center in Chicago was cause for reflecting on his supposed golden two terms of tolerance and “reaching across the aisle” on Friday’s PBS News Hour. Rogin teed up her guest, Yale historian Beverly Gage, to praise Obama’s dignified bipartisanship, facts notwithstanding.
PBS on Religion: Ruinous on Abortion, Great If You're a Black Leftist
Wednesday’s PBS News Hour preached pro-abortion propaganda, rejoicing in an Arkansas woman who discarded the shackles of organized religion and converted to abortion support. Co-anchor Amna Nawaz: Since Roe v. Wade was overturned, a majority of Republicans continue to oppose abortion. But there's been a shift in opinion among many Americans. More Democrats and independents now say…
