Friday’s edition of the tax-funded PBS News Hour took a jab at the influential new conservative parents’ rights group Moms for Liberty, which drew some Republican presidential candidates to its convention last week. Moms was founded to oppose school closings and mask-vaccine mandates in schools and which now targets the teaching of Critical Race Theory and gender identity in schools.…

Monday’s edition of the tax-supported PBS NewsHour featured more of the unstinting, un-journalistic cheerleading of a segment of left-wing activists without a pretense of fairness. This time PBS’s flagship news program is lamenting the “right-wing backlash” forcing companies to “rethink Pride.” June is “Pride Month,” a fact you’ve been reminded of every time you turn on your…

New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart agreed on Friday’s PBS NewsHour that the Supreme Court’s ruling that the First Amendment protects a Christian web designer from having to create a website for same-sex weddings is “poison” for society.

Next time you catch the PBS News Hour on Friday evening (it’s partially funded by your taxes, after all), close your eyes and try to tell the difference between liberal Jonathan Capehart of the Washington Post and “conservative” counterpart David Brooks of the New York Times during the show’s weekly political roundtable. Capehart is one of many liberal voices on PBS…

Hunter Biden, the controversial son of the president, pled guilty to two federal charges of tax fraud and a felony charge of gun possession on Tuesday, and that evening’s taxpayer-funded PBS News Hour proved itself eager to move along, dismissing Republican accusations of a cushy plea deal from his father’s Department of Justice, appealing to emotion by painting President Joe Biden as…

On Monday’s edition of the tax-supported Amanpour & Co., host Christiane Amanpour interviewed Anita Hill, Brandeis University Professor and of course, the woman who accused now-Justice Clarence Thomas of sexual harassment. Hill has been hailed in the liberal media since her nationally televised 1991 confrontation with the U.S Senate and Thomas, and Amanpour shoehorned her in to…

Not long after condemning Christian pastors for not wanting drag queens at their Christmas parade, PBS has managed to outdo themselves on Tuesday by claiming that the Bible teaches that there is nothing wrong with transitioning four-year olds.

Yet another testy exchange transpired on the PBS NewsHour between reporters and Republicans. Host Amna Nawaz and new Republican presidential candidate, Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, got into it on Friday evening. Nawaz was greatly troubled that Suarez offered a hypothetical response to a Trump conviction, if Suarez somehow became President of the United States.

Monday's Amanpour & Co., airing on PBS and CNN International, launched a tag-team, three-pronged personal assault on three recent conservative leaders: Boris Johnson, Donald Trump and Silvio Berlusconi. Amanpour interviewed Alastair Campbell, the self-impressed former Director of Communications for Labour Prime Minister Tony Blair, about his new book calling for…

Another month, another testy interview on Amanpour & Co. (which airs on CNN International and tax-funded PBS) between journalist Walter Isaacson and a conservative figure. Last month it was National Review editor Rich Lowry, who snapped back at Isaacson’s stating that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s campaign was embracing the “culture of resentment.” This month it’s Gov.…

The whole point of elections is to offer multiple competing visions for the future, but this was confusing to the cast of Friday’s PBS NewsHour with host Amna Nawaz how 2024 Republicans can “undermine” federal agencies, such as the Justice Department, while seeking to run them. Washington Post associate editor also proclaimed that such campaigning represents “projection.”

On Tuesday’s Amanpour & Co., host Christiane Amanpour was joined by Yale professor Timothy Snyder, whom she described as “an award-winning historian and bestselling author, focusing on the dangers of authoritarianism.” Both host and guest went on an extended rant on the hypothetical threats of political violence ginned up by Trump supporters, or as Amanpour breathlessly put it, “…

Tuesday’s edition of the tax-funded PBS NewsHour aired a segment on Trump’s latest indictment, over classified documents found at his Mar-a-Lago estate, that was devoted to neutralizing Republican accusations of a double standard between the political parties over document-related prosecutions, using an unlabeled Democratic lawyer and operative as cover.

The latest edition of PBS’s Frontline documentary series to air on Tuesday night carried the subtitle America’s Dangerous Trucks as host A.C. Thompson explored the safety aspects of 18-wheelers. At one point, it was emphatically declared that Ronald Reagan contributed to truck-related deaths through his policy of deregulation although the logic needed to make such a claim was…
