Over the weekend, PBS continued its bias favoring the Democrat agenda on guns as weekend anchor John Yang devoted a segment to letting a gun control advocate cheer for Michigan to finally pass new gun restrictions, now that the legislature is controlled by Democrats. He also allowed his liberal guest to inaccurately suggest that Illinois residents can legally purchase guns in neighboring…

Tax-funded PBS NewsHour made clear where it stood on “LGBTQ” issues over two separate segments on two consecutive nights. Host Amna Nawaz introduced the Wednesday evening segment faulting the Republican governor of Tennessee for rejecting federal money for “HIV prevention": "In Tennessee, a fight has been brewing over another public health issue, HIV. It comes as several Republican-…

For 20 years, lefties have blasted the press as weak or corrupt because the media did not prevent the Bush administration from launching the war in Iraq. It’s become an enduring myth amongst liberals — and one that an honest review of news coverage would quickly debunk.

The press never misses a chance for a dig at conservative president Ronald Reagan, as shown by public television’s fulsome tributes to “trailblazing” former Colorado Rep. Pat Schroeder, dead at 82. Schroeder served 12 terms in the House as a prominent liberal feminist. PBS and NPR also celebrated her "sharp wit," or at least her political cracks at the expense of then-President Reagan.

Media activists who obsess over “representation” in Hollywood (think the #OscarsSoWhite hash-tag on Twitter), will never be satisfied as long as there are ways to slice the racial-gender figures of directors, actors, award nominees, and box-office results so that liberals will come away disappointed in the alleged lack of “representation” at the movies. The Oscars are a prime season to air…

Congress used its constitutional authority to override a Washington, D.C. local crime bill that would have reduced penalties for murder, armed robbery, and sexual assault. Lisa Desjardins, the PBS NewsHour’s congressional reporter, who generally plays it fairly straight, definitely took a side in her Wednesday evening coverage of the controversial bill, which was overturned by a heavy…

PBS NewsHour host Amna Nawaz grilled former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, who is weighing a presidential bid for the Republican nomination, on Friday’s show. After the inevitable Trump-related queries, Nawaz peppered the genial Hutchison about recent supposedly “extreme” legislation from Arkansas about transgender and bathroom issues, while taking her own extreme stance. (This is the…

The liberal broadcast networks love to throw around the term “historic” to praise legislative actions by Democrats. But since Wednesday, the network turned a blind eye to Congressional Republicans and Democrats coming together for the first time in 30 years to slap down a local D.C. law that would go soft on crime by reducing sentences for some violent crimes, including ones for guns. But…

Who says the liberal media is anti-business? Taxpayer-assisted PBS and National Public Radio are eager to promote at least one product: Companies that mail the pregnancy-terminating pill mifepristone across state lines to states where abortion is being made illegal, in the wake of the Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision. And a pro-life group is suing claiming the FDA wrongly approved the…

"Renowned” PBS filmmaker Ken Burns appeared on Tuesday’s CNN This Morning to rain fire on Gov. Ron DeSantis over a bill in the Florida legislature to mandate some boundaries on how taxpayer-funded universities teach American history. In the fevered brain of this PBS star, DeSantis is somehow comparable to both the Nazis and the Soviets. CNN loved this, and didn’t blink at this blatant…

PBS NewsHour anchor Amna Nawaz introduced an unfriendly segment on the Conservative Political Action Conference's (CPAC) annual gathering on the Potomac. Laura Barron-Lopez’s solemnly intoned field report Friday evening was interspersed with her own opinions about the “white grievance politics” and “false belief” about teaching Critical Race Theory on display.

PBS NewsHour aired an 11-minute segment under the headline “Parents concerned as new state laws restrict rights of transgender children.” There were ten minutes of leftist advocacy, and 48 seconds of Republican rebuttal. Their "expert" compares Republican proposals to "genocide."

A New York Times front-page expose Sunday tore the lid off the scandal of underage migrant workers being used as illegal child labor: “Alone and Exploited, Migrant Children Work Brutal Jobs Across the U.S..” The online headline deck: “Arriving in record numbers, they’re ending up in dangerous jobs that violate child labor laws -- including in factories that make products for well-…

Not even widely beloved board games are immune from the left’s ruthless politicization of daily life. The newest edition of the Public Broadcasting System series American Experience delves into the history of the famous board game Monopoly in “Ruthless: Monopoly's Secret History.” But not content to relay the sordid history of how Parker Brothers-anointed game “…
