Journos on PBS: House GOP Hasn't 'Landed a Punch' on Biden Scandals
Friday’s PBS NewsHour pundits discussed Biden preparing to announce a re-election bid without mentioning this week’s big Hunter Biden scoops, and the same thing happened on the PBS journalist roundtable Washington Week. In the show’s last minute, they discussed House GOP investigations – but not Hunter’s name. Reporter Heather Caygle of Punchbowl News said “Have they landed a…

NPR, AP Torture Language to Avoid Offending Transgender Activists
A flurry of legislative action on transgender issues has sparked more painfully evasive language from the media over what used to be easy-to-state basic biological categories, like “male” and “female.” Check out the painfully awkward lead to Kevin Freking’s Associated Press story Thursday: "Transgender athletes whose biological sex assigned at birth was male would be barred from competing on…

Ignoring Hunter Revelations, PBS Hypes Biden 2024: No 'Big Scandals'
The weekly table discussion on PBS NewsHour between Washington Post Associate Editor Jonathan Capehart and New York Times columnist David Brooks spent some time on Friday discussing President Biden’s upcoming re-election campaign. Ignoring all the week’s developments surrounding Hunter, Brooks claimed Biden’s in a good spot, “There hasn't been any obvious gaffes, big…

PBS: Pass Health Care to Boost US Lifespan; End School Lunch 'Crisis'
The PBS NewsHour Weekend show on Sunday pitched for more Euro-socialist-style government programs -- for the children in a school lunch “crisis,” and in the name of U.S. average life expectancy. To make the argument that the United States should be more like other “industrialized” countries in order to boost U.S. life expectancy, host John Yang teed up a liberal doctor and a universal…

PBS NewsHour Co-Host Pushes Biden Aide Hard from the Left on Abortion
Before taking the job as PBS News Hour host, Amna Nawaz made her strong abortion-rights views known in an interview with the feminist news site: I think a lot about the rights that will pass on to our daughters. I think we have just lived through a Supreme Court decision that for the first time in modern history has removed rights from a population rather than expanding rights, and I…

NPR on Film: Loves Eco-Terror, Hates Capitalism, ‘Transphobic' Rowling
National Public Radio’s ideological bias extends to its movie reviews. Fresh Air’s “critic-at-large” John Powers praised a new movie about a band of eco-terrorists fighting the energy industry: "How to Blow Up a Pipeline" review: Contrast that with the ideological contempt NPR critic Aisha Harris displayed toward a feel-good movie about how the famous “Air Jordan” sneakers…

Column: NPR Won't Hide Their Red-Hot Hatred of Republicans & Fox News
NPR left Twitter in a hilarious huff, proclaiming it wouldn't go to any platform "undermining our credibility." That's interesting, because NPR has demonstrated an incredibly aggressive interest in undermining the credibility of Fox News, trying to prevent how it balances out the liberal media.

Amanpour Gushes With Katie Porter, Sounding Threat to ‘Women's Rights'
Amanpour & Co. host Christiane Amanpour interviewed California Rep. Katie Porter, who is running for retiring Dianne Feinstein’s U.S. Senate seat in California and currently plugging a memoir with a hokey title, "I Swear Politics Is Messier Than My Minivan.” Amanpour made no mention of Porter’s “toxic workplace,” including what NewsBusters Curtis Houck described as…

NewsBusters Podcast: NPR Leaves Twitter In a Hilarious Huff
Twitter went from tagging National Public Radio as "state-affiliated broadcasting" to "government-funded media," but NPR decided to leave Twitter in a huff because Twitter was damaging its so-called image of "editorial independence." But they sound like National Public Relations for Democrats...

CBS's O'Donnell Bemoans NPR Leaving Twitter After Accurate Label
Hours after National Public Radio threw what NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck describes as a "hissy fit" against the Elon Musk-owned Twitter and left the platform over being accurately described as "state-affiliated media" and later "government-funded media," CBS Evening News anchor clearly seemed saddened by the left-wing outlet leaving. CBS later attempted to slime Musk's…

As NPR Leaves Twitter, Elon Musk Tweets 'Defund NPR'
For years, NewsBusters has urged Congress to "defund NPR." It doesn't mean taking away all their funding -- just the government funding. They often claim only two percent of their funding comes from government. So why not give it up? Today, Elon Musk tweeted out "Defund NPR" in the wake of NPR's arrogant proclamations about how great they are. So now we have celebrity endorsers!

BYE!! NPR Quits Twitter Over Twitter’s (Accurate) ‘Govt.-Funded’ Label
On Wednesday morning, taxpayer-funded National Public Radio (NPR) upped the ante in its hissy fit against the Elon Musk-owned Twitter as, in light of the fact that Twitter added the “state-affiliated media” label to NPR’s account and then tweaked it to say “government-funded media,” the far-left crackpots would be quitting the social media platform because Twitter was “falsely implying that we…

PBS Uses Thomas to Push Reporter’s Book Warning of Scary Righty SCOTUS
CNN Supreme Court analyst Joan Biskupic gives off a Nina Totenberg vibe, a longtime legal reporter who's all about diminishing the conservatives. So it's only natural that she was invited on the CNN/PBS-aired talk show Amanpour & Co. The news hook was a ProPublica probe into Clarence Thomas and his ritzy travel with a GOP "megadonor."
