Trump (Second-Term) Derangement Syndrome was on display in a very special issue of The Atlantic monthly magazine, dated January/February 2024 (see “The Atlantic Melts Down at a Second Trump Term ”) and the PBS-aired interview show Amanpour & Co. was on it, with an interview with Atlantic Editor-in-Chief Jeffrey Goldberg. The Atlantic has tilted to the…

The taxpayer-funded PBS NewsHour show on Thursday once again smuggled in left-wing propaganda in its “Brief But Spectacular” feature which occasionally appears at the ends of shows, sometimes a “black queer” poet to soften the hard-edged policies being advocated. This week it was prison abolition with a racial edge under the online rubric “A Brief But Spectacular take on how to…

Taxpayer-funded PBS relayed unverified sob stories about the release of Palestinian prisoners by Israel as part of its truce with Hamas terrorists, while letting a pro-Palestinian lie about tolerance of Jews in Arab countries go unchallenged, on Tuesday’s edition of the PBS News Hour. Schifrin sympathized with Nawaf Al-Salaima, the father of the rock-thrower: "So, how, sir, in your…

With Hunter Biden being charged with multiple tax-related felonies, the cast of Friday’s PBS NewsHour wanted to emphasize what it considered the main takeaway “the indictment does not in any way implicate President Joe Biden.”

Is it the PBS NewsHour or the DNC NewsHour? Many nights, you couldn't tell the difference. Co-host Amna Nawaz interviewed Liz Cheney on Thursday, and she was just like NPR's Leila Fadel in merely facilitating all of Cheney's Republican-ripping talking points from her new book. Republican tax dollars are used to trash Republicans. 

Taxpayer-funded National Public Radio was aggressively competing to be the most interview spot for Liz Cheney on Monday's Morning Edition. Anchor Leila Fadel was every bit as promotional as say, Asma Khalid was with Kamala Harris a year ago. Cheney is now in the pantheon of Democrat heroes.

The taxpayer-supported PBS News Weekend show on Saturday provided some helpful PR for the abortion megaplex Planned Parenthood. It’s been a favorite source for pro-abortion alarmist takes ever since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022. As usual with PBS, there are no voices raised to celebrate saving infant lives, but a single-minded focus on the lost…

Thursday’s PBS NewsHour tackled the concerns of “local menstruators” in Hawaii, a story that fused the tax-funded outlet’s search for niche necessities that require government funding with its ongoing attempt to defy science and pretend humans other than biological women get periods. It’s the latest “period piece” from tax-funded PBS, whose long anti-scientific advocacy for the “…

The liberal media knives are out for entrepreneur Elon Musk, who has been steering the liberal-dominated blue-check bastion social media platform formerly known as Twitter toward free speech and increased diversity of opinion since taking it over. Thursday’s edition of the PBS NewsHour devoted almost six minutes to attacking the space and technology impresario. The conversation…

PBS’s Amanpour & Co. show hosted journalist and anti-Israel activist Nathan Thrall, author of the non-fiction book A Day in the Life of Abed Salama. His ostensible subject was a Palestinian father whose son who died in a bus accident, and emergency response was delayed by Israeli security bureaucracy, but of course the story was twisted to symbolize the plight of the Palestinians…

One way you know that most journalists are Democrats is their energetic work presenting about 37 ways the Republican Party may collapse into rubble in the near future, versus their cautious beating around bushes about problems the Democratic Party may have -- but maybe they’ll all vanish.

The latest PBS Independent Lens film program, “A Town Called Victoria,” was a three-hour report on the January 2017 firebombing of the Victoria Islamic Center mosque in the small town of Victoria, Texas. Predictably, there was a deeper left-wing political message within this documentary, part of the “Exploring Hate” series by NYC-based public television station WNET. snuck in partisan…

National "Public" Radio sounds a lot like Black Lives Matter Radio. The taxpayer-funded network has denied BLM leaders are Marxists, even as they plainly state they are. They've promoted books promoting black racial rioting against police as "rebellion" as well as In Defense of Looting. So it's no surprise they're going to offer a rave review to "antiracist" leftist Ibram X. Kendi's…

As part of its endless cycle of being scandalized by Donald Trump, PBS NewsHour correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez interviewed liberal Harvard professor Laurence Tribe to explain how apparently wrong it was for a judge to rule Trump was eligible to be on the 2024 ballot in Colorado. PBS renewed its recent habit of using a single source to amplify a fringe liberal or anti-Trump argument…
