PBS Oozes Over Paul Krugman: He Sees 'Resurrection' of Biden's Image
On Friday’s PBS airing of Amanpour & Co., host Christiane Amanpour introduced “the Nobel prize winning economist, Paul Krugman, who's written his last column for The New York Times, after 25 years of sharp and often indispensable takes on major issues that shape America and the world.” But NewsBusters has compiled decades of research proving Krugman’s knee-jerk…
PBS Attacks SCOTUS for Not Deferring to the Left's Gender 'Experts'
New York Times columnist Masha Gessen joined NPR host Michel Martin on Wednesday’s edition of Amanpour and Company on PBS, where he attacked the Supreme Court for not listening to the left’s preferred “experts” on the case involving Tennessee’s ban on so-called “gender-affirming care” for minors.
PBS Platforms Ugly ‘Jim Crow’ Smear of Israel from Ta-Nehisi Coates
Given her post-October 6 reporting, it’s no surprise that PBS/CNN host Christian Amanpour manages little sympathy for Israel’s two-front fight against Islamic terrorists of Hamas and Hezbollah, but her introduction to Friday’s Amanpour & Co. (PBS) interview of left-wing darling Ta-Nehisi Coates discussing his ignorant anti-Israel book was still a bit much: "….our next guest says…
PBS: Idea That Kids Need Mother and Father Is ‘Christian Nationalist'
Who did Amanpour & Co. invite on to discuss the supposed “Christian Nationalism” running rampant within Project 2025, the feared, loathed, seldom read presidential blueprint issued by the Heritage Foundation? Nobody but the author of something called Jesus and John Wayne: How White Evangelicals Corrupted a Faith and Fractured a Nation. Host Bianna Golodryga set up the…
PBS Tries To Blame Conservatism For Mass Stabbing
Thursday’s Amanpour and Company demonstrated everything wrong with public broadcasting by using hushed and solemn tones to offer up the most incendiary hot takes. This particular hot take came from feminist, gender, and sexuality studies Prof. Kate Manne and NPR’s Michel Martin as they tried to tie conservatism to the recent mass stabbing in Australia.
PBS Blames Churches Following The Bible For Politicizing Religion
Correspondent Sarah McCammon joined her NPR colleague Michel Martin on Thursday’s Amanpour and Company on PBS to discuss her book, The Exvangelicals: Loving, Living, and Leaving the White Evangelical Church. Naturally, Evangelicals’ relationship with Donald Trump and the “politicization of religion” was a big part of the conversation, but McCammon made it clear that her…
NPR Harps on Fake News: Bill Kristol Is a 'Conservative'... for Biden
On Monday's Morning Edition, NPR anchor Michel Martin harped twice on the fake news that pro-Biden pundit Bill Kristol is still a "conservative."

NewsBusters Podcast: A Sappy Rerun for Christine 'No Evidence' Ford
Christine Blasey Ford provided what they call “no evidence” to back up her 2018 claim that Brett Kavanaugh assaulted her when they were teens. Kavanaugh fiercely denied the charge. But CBS and ABC and NPR have provided sappy publicity for her new book – which provides no new evidence of her story.
Column: Internal Democrat Worries Aired on NPR
National Public Radio is a sandbox for the Left. The “news” there is manufactured by leftists, for leftists. You can find it easily in the latest interviews about the Biden re-election campaign. The interviewers are clearly nervous that Biden’s messaging isn’t working. It’s not that Biden’s incompetent, it’s that voters are ignorant.
PBS Hamas Historian: Israel is 'Fascist,' But Hamas Isn't Anti-Semitic
NPR’s Michel Martin guest hosted PBS’s Amanpour and Company on Wednesday and described her guest, Tareq Baconi, as a Hamas historian which she was careful to distinguish from a “Hamas apologist.” However, Baconi is a Hamas apologist, as he absurdly described Israel as “fascist” while, even more absurdly, saying Hamas is no longer anti-Semitic.
PBS Freaks Out at How a Second Trump Team Would 'Weaponize' Government
On Wednesday's Amanpour & Co. show on PBS, NPR's Michel Martin provided a forum for CNN contributor Miles Taylor to bash President Donald Trump and Governor Ron DeSantis from the left as the disgruntled ex-Republican promoted his book fretting over a possible second Trump administration.
PBS’s ‘Amanpour’ Slobbers Over Nina Jankowicz’s ‘Battle for the Truth'
On Amanpour & Co., journalist Michel Martin commiserated with Nina Jankowicz, cringeworthy songbird and appointed director of the Biden administration’s Disinformation Governance Board before the Orwellian outfit was scuttled after outcry from conservatives and liberals. Host Bianna Golydryga set the tone with her introduction: "Now to the battle for the truth."
NewsBusters Podcast: NPR Coddles Kamala Harris... Again
It's your tax dollars at work, National Public Radio conducting another softball interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, with questions such as "what's your message?" and "what does an event like this mean to you?" Kamala gets to unspool ponderous long answers with zero fear of hardballs or interruptions.
HOT TALK: House Democrat Whip Plays Debt-Limit Dominatrix on NPR
NPR would like the taxpayers to think that they're nonpartisan news for all people. But in reality, they're the favorite channel for hard-core lefties. They're like Fox News for the Pelosi set. Look no further than Friday's Morning Edition, where co-host Michel Martin interviewed House Minority Whip Katharine Clark of Massachusetts
