PBS's NYT Guest Gushes Over Justice Barrett, 'Beacon of Hope' for Libs
The Independence Day edition of the PBS News Hour, guest-anchored by John Yang, featured two liberal Supreme Court experts sympathetically discussing Justice Amy Coney Barrett, a Trump appointee whose votes have trended leftward of late, pleasing liberals and disappointing conservatives. The panelists discussed conservative death threats against Barrett without mentioning the left-…
CBS Nudges Ken Burns to Claim PBS Isn't Leftist, It Has 'Firing Line'
PBS partisans treat Ken Burns as if he was one of America’s finest treasures. In reality, he should be nobody’s idea of a nonpartisan historical filmmaker. He’s a fervent liberal Democrat. On Sunday's Face the Nation, CBS Evening News co-anchor John Dickerson cued him up to defend PBS, and he claimed it's never been left-wing. It used to have William F. Buckley on it!
PBS Teams Up With Liberal 'Non-Partisans' to Bash Trump's Budget Bill
As President Trump’s big budget bill neared a crucial vote in the Senate on Monday, PBS News Hour’s most biased reporter, Laura Barron-Lopez, covered only one side of a critical part of the bill federal health care spending on Medicare and Medicaid.

In Totally Tilted NPR Show, One Caller Says It's 'Partisan, Hacky'
Whenever PBS or NPR air a discussion on defunding PBS and NPR, it's always a tremendously one-sided chat.

NPR's "Public Editor" completely denied there was any political bias.
Trump-CBS Settlement: PBS Puts On Stelter to Cry 'Ransom' or 'Bribe'
CNN media analyst Brian Stelter posed as Journalism's Hero again against the powers of censorship, i.e. the Trump administration, on Wednesday’s PBS News Hour. Trump’s latest sin? Paramount agreeing to pay $16 million to President Trump’s future presidential library to settle a lawsuit over CBS’s news program 60 Minutes (Paramount owns CBS) for selectively editing an…
PBS Tries To Use 4th of July To Denounce Deportations

NPR's Extremism Reporter Only Finds Extremism in Trump Protecting Jews
NPR’s radical “domestic extremism correspondent” Odette Yousef took an insane angle on the Trump Administration’s efforts to punish Harvard University for failing to protect Jewish students from anti-semitism on campus – twisting it into Trump trying to halt the arc of racial justice. The online transcript of Tuesday’s NPR’s flagship news program All Things Considered featured this…
NPR Promotes Leftist Mamdani, Denounces 'Racist Anti-Muslim Attacks'
One of the least surprising things ever was National “Public” Radio rushing in to promote radical leftist New York City mayor candidate Zohran Mamdani. Inside their leftist bubble, critiques of Mamdani are “unsubstantiated.”
Top Ten Myths About PBS and NPR
There is virtually nothing unique about public broadcasters anymore. The only thing that now differentiates NPR and PBS from their private sector competition is that they get about $1 billion in taxpayer subsidies annually (half via the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and half from federal and state discretionary grants).
Column: Bill Moyers, the Face of Taxpayer-Funded Propaganda
Liberal journalists dumped a barrel of glorifying adjectives upon the news Bill Moyers died at age 91. The Washington Post headline was “Bill Moyers, eminence of public affairs broadcasting, dies at 91.” CNN’s Brian Stelter oozed: “His career can and should serve as a model for younger generations.” Ugh.
NPR's Inskeep Finds It 'Interesting' GOP Doesn't Complain About Fox
NPR Morning Edition host Steve Inskeep joined Semafor’s Mixed Signals podcast hosts Max Tani and Ben Smith last Friday to discuss the current battle over NPR’s public funding.

PBS Puts On Pro-PBS Liberal GOP Senator to Promote Funding for PBS
As a vote on rescissions (clawing back already approved funding) in the Senate looms that may decide the fate of federal funding for PBS and NPR, liberal Republican Margaret Hoover, host of PBS’s Firing Line, invited a timely guest onto Friday’s show: liberal Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, a self-described “unabashed supporter of public broadcasting in my state” and author…
STUDY: PBS Washington Week Still Spreading Fear and Loathing of Trump
Washington Week with The Atlantic, public television’s taxpayer-funded weekly political roundtable featuring a rotating stable of mainstream journalists, touts itself as "objective.” But a review of the last three months of Washington Week (April 4, 2025 – June 27, 2025) proved Trump-phobic liberalism still reigns over the public airwaves. While unemployment is holding steady…
NPR Champions 'Joyful Blowout' of Drag Queens for Climate Activism
As Congress debates defunding PBS and NPR in part because they are relentless liberal propaganda, Friday night's All Things Considered newscast on NPR championed...drag queens for climate activism. It's like Mad Libs for mad leftists.
