Even some in the liberal press were a bit bothered by the Associated Press’s decision to call the Iowa caucuses for Donald Trump at 7:30 p.m., just 30 minutes after they’d begun and before some caucus-goers had even voted. The decision was especially significant, given the handwringing in the mainstream press about the dangers a second Trump term would pose to free elections and democracy…

The Public Broadcasting System is often exposed for what it is: a publicly-funded hotbed of progressive propaganda disguised as news. Left-wing biases hard-baked into its editorial lines and delivered with calm tones. But if you look hard enough, from time to time you’ll find a report that exemplifies what news delivery should be.

The PBS NewsHour on Friday ran with the anti-Trump talking points from the Joe Biden re-election campaign, with Biden posing as defender of democracy at the historical site Valley Forge, painting Donald Trump as a danger to democracy (never mind Biden’s Democratic Party throwing Trump off the ballot in two states and counting). Nawaz used loaded liberal language, claiming Biden was “…

Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart unleashed a real headscratcher on Friday’s PBS NewsHour as he took exception to the idea that Democrats are trying to kick Donald Trump off the ballot, declaring such claims to be “untrue” and Democrats have “nothing to do with” the efforts. Don’t expect Glenn Kessler to fact-check this one.

On January 4, PBS NewsHour anchor Amna Nawaz interviewed Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for nine minutes, but didn't get to the House Republican impeachment drive until the last question. Shouldn't that be the first question? Not when it's Republicans doing the impeaching.

Taxpayer-supported PBS again showed its ongoing hostility toward Israel in its war in Gaza against the terrorist group Hamas on Wednesday’s night episode of the NewsHour. The initial sympathy the NewsHour showed for Israel’s plight after the brutal October 7 invasion has been replaced by endless doomsaying over unavoidable civilian casualties in a war where one side, Hamas,…

In a surprising development, PBS NewsHour’s Friday weekly news recap featured almost a debate between New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post columnist Ruth Marcus on House Republicans formally approving an impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden with the former wondering what the big deal is and the latter labeling it a “shameful misuse of the…

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. 

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 “…

New York Times columnist and PBS NewsHour Friday weekly news recapper David Brooks claimed he isn't sure progressives know what they are talking about when they chant “from the river to the sea.” Whether Brooks actually has no idea or is playing dumb doesn’t really matter, PBS viewers deserve a better conservative perspective.

PBS NewsHour anchor Amna Nawaz joined the Friday edition of Jose Diaz-Balart Reports on MSNBC where she misrepresented PBS’s own polling data in order to portray Israel’s war against Hamas as much more polarizing than it actually is.

The Monday evening PBS NewsHour starred recurring guest, New York University professor Ruth Ben-Ghiat, using Trump's harsh campaign rhetoric at a rally on Veteran’s Day to compare the former president to Hitler. (With the far-left’s public anti-semitic behavior of late, some are cheekily tempted to ask if being compared to Hitler is a good thing or a bad thing on the left.) Ben-Ghiat…

Even more so than the network evening news shows, the PBS NewsHour and PBS News Weekend news programs have been obsessed with the death toll in Gaza during Israel’s counterattack, even to the point of downplaying the latest Trump courtroom dramas (usually catnip for the liberal press) in order to lead every night with the grim scenes out of Gaza. It’s a one-sided view that…

On Tuesday’s edition of the tax-supported PBS News Hour, host Amna Nawaz disgracefully pushed Hamas’s fatality numbers while using the hostages taken by the Palestinian terrorist group as a rationale for the ridiculous idea of a ceasefire.  When Regev brought up “the inflated numbers” issued by Hamas (under the guise of the Gaza Health Ministry) Nawaz snapped back: “Do you have more…
