PBS News Hour’s most biased reporter, White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez, filed a wide-ranging story Monday about some of the more controversial figures in the orbit of Donald Trump’s administration, yet also spread the ridiculous notion that Trump himself is an anti-Semite (if so, he’s doing a very bad job of it).

Just how leftist can taxpayer-funded “public radio” be? Take a look at KGNU Radio in the blue city of Boulder, Colorado.

Hypocrites: PBS Criticizes Federal Arts Funding Cuts, Then Bashes Debt
When it’s not bashing Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” for furthering the national debt, the PBS News Hour works hard to poison the well against any reductions in federal spending.

Yet the night before, PBS dug up yet another sob story about relatively small…
At WorldPride D.C., NPR Forwards Unfounded LGBTQ Panic Over at Trump

PBS Host: I Prepared For US Visit 'As If I Was Going to North Korea'
CNN/PBS anchor and self-styled journalist Christiane Amanpour recently gave a wild, anti-Trump commencement speech at Harvard where she invoked everything from 1984 to Benito Mussolini, but that may not have been the wildest part of her recent trip to America.
