PBS Host: Critics of Pro-Biden Media Don't Grasp 'How Reporting Works'
On Friday's Washington Week with The Atlantic, host Jeffrey Goldberg hosted his pal Jake Tapper and his co-author Alex Thompson on their book Original Sin.

PBS Attacks GOP For Deficits While Attacking Spending Cuts
The trio of PBS News Hour host Geoff Bennett, Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart, and New York Times columnist David Brooks tried to have it both ways on Friday.

PBS News Hour Finally Turns to Tapper & Thompson, Winces at 'Coverup'

PBS Fights Tooth and Nail for $1B Americorps Spending, Laments Debt
More than any other news network, the PBS News Hour has devoted the first few months of the second Trump administration focusing on the sad stories of Trump administration budget reductions, finding sympathetic victims to more effectively personalize the trauma and harm supposedly done.

Column: PBS, NPR, and the 'Unfounded' Charge of Bidens Hiding Cancer
You can always tell when a leftist media outlet doesn’t like a story angle. They’ll cry “no evidence,” and you want to ask them if they actually spent any time searching for evidence. It’s their way of suggesting the story is too disreputable to pursue, like Hunter Biden’s laptop.

Brooks Falsely Claims Trump's Trip Undid '100 Years' of Foreign Policy
There are undoubtedly parts of any Donald Trump presidency that are unique to him, but there are also parts that are continuous with other presidents, and one problem the media has is that they freak out over both. New York Times columnist David Brooks did precisely that on Friday’s PBS News Hour as he gave a factually-challenged retort to Trump’s speech in the Saudi capital…
