Avlon Fawns Over Biden Speech, Claims He's Fighting 'White Supremacy'
Christiane Amanpour welcomed CNN colleague and senior political analyst John Avlon onto her Monday show that is aired in the U.S. on PBS to discuss President Joe Biden’s latest speeches. In Avlon’s world, Biden is fighting the dark forces of “white supremacy” and “Christian nationalism.” Ironically, he also believes that it is important for journalists to be more activist as currently there “…
PBS Crowns Biden Savior of Democracy vs Trump's 'Stochastic Terrorism'
The PBS NewsHour on Friday ran with the anti-Trump talking points from the Joe Biden re-election campaign, with Biden posing as defender of democracy at the historical site Valley Forge, painting Donald Trump as a danger to democracy (never mind Biden’s Democratic Party throwing Trump off the ballot in two states and counting). Nawaz used loaded liberal language, claiming Biden was “…
PBS: Oppose 'Sacred' Reparations And You Have White Privilege

PBS's Phony Claudine Gay Debate: Both Sides Agree Critics Are Racist
Tuesday’s PBS NewsHour dealt with the resignation of Harvard President Claudine Gay, a shocking move fueled by her botched performance at a congressional hearing on pro-Hamas protests held on progressive college campuses. Gay was further doomed by myriad examples of plagiarism within her incredibly modest collection (for a Harvard president) of published research. But tax-funded PBS…
FLASHBACK: The Liberal Media’s War Against the ’95 Gingrich Majority

Huh? Capehart: 'Untrue' Dems Are Trying To Kick Trump Off The Ballot
Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart unleashed a real headscratcher on Friday’s PBS NewsHour as he took exception to the idea that Democrats are trying to kick Donald Trump off the ballot, declaring such claims to be “untrue” and Democrats have “nothing to do with” the efforts. Don’t expect Glenn Kessler to fact-check this one.
PBS Anchor Reluctantly Asks Mayorkas About House GOP Impeachment Drive
On January 4, PBS NewsHour anchor Amna Nawaz interviewed Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for nine minutes, but didn't get to the House Republican impeachment drive until the last question. Shouldn't that be the first question? Not when it's Republicans doing the impeaching.
PBS Touts ‘Citizen Investigators....Helping the FBI Track Down' J6ers
Wednesday’s edition of the PBS NewsHour featured veteran journalist Judy Woodruff cheering on an obsessive group of “citizen investigators” who have teamed up with the media’s favorite domestic surveillance organization to turn in people who entered the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021: “How citizen investigators are helping the FBI track down Jan. 6 rioters.” One suspects…
Amanpour Lamely Responds To Lebanon FM Blaming ISIS Bombings On Israel
CNN/PBS anchor Christiane Amanpour may claim to be truthful and not neutral, but when Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib joined her on her Wednesday show to blame Israel for the twin bombings in Iran that killed 84 people at the tomb of Qasem Soleimani, Amanpour simply noted that was “your opinion,” but since the program aired, ISIS has taken credit for the attacks, which was always…
The Atlantic Jokes About Taking Over PBS to Tout Trump-Panic Issue
A very special episode of Washington Week with The Atlantic aired Friday, devoted wholly to the magazine’s very special anti-Trump issue, already pushed on the PBS NewsHour.

2023: Liberal Interviewers Largely Avoid Asking Joe Biden About Hunter
Fox News media reporter Joseph Wulfsohn underlined that 2023 was another year in which President Biden largely avoided solo press conferences (three!) and serious newsmaker interviews. He ended the year on a podcast with comedian Conan O'Brien, not with a press conference or a hard-hitting journalist one-on-one.
PBS’s Nawaz Quotes Hamas ‘Health Officials,' Goads Israel Ambassador
Taxpayer-supported PBS again showed its ongoing hostility toward Israel in its war in Gaza against the terrorist group Hamas on Wednesday’s night episode of the NewsHour. The initial sympathy the NewsHour showed for Israel’s plight after the brutal October 7 invasion has been replaced by endless doomsaying over unavoidable civilian casualties in a war where one side, Hamas,…
'TERRIBLE Decision': David Brooks Slams Maine Taking Trump Off Ballot
It's always a surprise when David Brooks actually fights with Jonathan Capehart on the Friday night panel on the PBS NewsHour. But he denounced Maine's Democrat Secretary of State taking Donald Trump off the primary ballot, saying it was not just a "terrible decision," but an "even worse threat to democracy" than Colorado's Supreme Court ripping Trump off the ballot.
