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. The sole guest for the segment not only represented a liberal health group, KFF (previously known as the Kaiser Family Foundation), but…

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?

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. There were several puzzling claims made throughout, including claims that Fox’s personnel decisions and Hunter Biden laptop coverage are analogous to NPR’s.

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…

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.

PBS Claims Reaction To Socialist Mamdani's Win Has Been 'Hateful'
Friday’s weekly news recap featuring PBS News Hour host Amna Nawaz, Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart, and New York Times columnist David Brooks preferred to talk about the conservative reaction—or more accurately, Nawaz’s cherry-picked conservative reactions—to socialist Zohran Mamdani’s New York City mayoral primary win than Mamdani’s actual…

CBS Airs Badly Disguised Ad for 'Public' Radio In Louisiana
Liberal journalists rush to the support of other liberal journalists to insure the wider distribution of liberal bias. That’s why you see networks like CBS rushing to defend “public” radio in "rural" Shreveport, Louisiana (pop. 187,000). CBS headlined its online story: "Inside a Louisiana NPR station threatened by federal cuts: 'Without it, people would die'."

PBS Favors Lefty Mamdani in NYC Mayor Primary: Obama to Cuomo’s Trump?
Zohran Mamdani, the controversial leftwing Muslim candidate who last night won the Democratic primary in the New York City mayoral race and will take on incumbent Eric Adams this fall, was celebrated on PBS’s News Hour Monday, before Election Day. At least both co-anchor Geoff Bennett and field reporter William Brangham called Mamdani a “socialist,” though the label would be hard to…
