NPR: Jason Aldean Song/Video Attacks Cities 'Using Racist Dog Whistle'
Amanda Marie Martinez, a country-music focused contributor to National Public Radio issued a print piece in response to a media-manufactured controversy Saturday, “Jason Aldean's 'Small Town' is part of a long legacy with a very dark side.” Martinez’s ideological alarmism about Aldean’s song, which survived industry cancellation and debuted at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, an amazing…

Underlining the notion that's there is not much difference between MSNBC and NPR, leftist Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-Texas) appeared on The Reidout and on NPR's Morning Edition on Monday. Co-host A Martinez (not the actor) set up Castro to denounce Gov. Greg Abbott's actions as "barbaric and inhumane."
NPR, VA Media Lose It Over Youngkin’s New School Transgender Policy
In reaction to Governor Glenn Youngkin’s (R-VA) new policy unveiled last week for schools regarding transgenderism, local media in the D.C. market (including an NPR affiliate) and across the Potomac in Virginia again twisted themselves into nervous knots over how on Earth voters in the Commonwealth could have elected someone in a platform of parental involvement in education.
NYT, NPR Bash Popular 'Sound of Freedom' Film on Child-Trafficking
The New York Times’ initial review of Sound of Freedom, a thriller based on child-trafficking-buster Tim Ballard, was negative but nonpolitical. But now that Trump has spoken up, the Times has jumped back into the media-manufactured controversy, as did taxpayer-supported National Public Radio. The Times and NPR unearthed “experts” to offer petulant…
Column: When Republicans Win, The Media Are Hearings-Impaired
Scandal coverage is the most obvious subject to demonstrate a pro-Democrat bias, and live coverage of scandal hearings is even more obvious. When the Pelosi-Picked Panel on January 6 held hearings, they were broadcast live on ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, NPR, CNN, MSNBC, and Fox. Nobody is airing House Republican hearings live for hours. Some can't even notice a hearing happened.
NPR Couldn't Do ONE SECOND on the House Hearing on Hunter Biden Probe
The PBS NewsHour offered five minutes of coverage on Wednesday of the House Oversight Committee hearings on slow-walking the Hunter Biden investigation, but National Public Radio could not find one second to cover the hearing on Wednesday night or Thursday morning. Even the top-of-hour newscasts had nothing, even as they promoted how Trump was facing prison time in the wave of…
NPR Hates Fox: Jesse Watters Is a 'Clown' Next to Carlson, O'Reilly
On Monday night, Jesse Watters took the plum spot of 8 pm on the Fox News Channel – the O’Reilly/Tucker hour – so it’s not surprising that NPR’s professional Fox-hater David Folkenflik tried to ruin the moment on Monday’s Morning Edition. His story was headlined “Fox's newest star Jesse Watters boasts a wink, a smirk, and a trail of outrage.” But his theme was that unlike his…
NPR Hates Fox: Media Reporter Airs Two Stories Touting Ray Epps Suit
While NPR couldn’t find time on its programs for a full story on the failed Secret Service investigation of cocaine found at the White House, it ran two Folkenflik stories publicizing January 6 protester Ray Epps suing Fox News for defamation. Five of his last seven reports are critical of Fox News.
FOUL AIR: NPR Talk Show Boosts Author Who Wants to 'Eliminate' Dissent
When you're a journalist writing books panicking people on the climate and demanding a government-ordered end to fossil fuels, you can count on taxpayer-funded public broadcasting to help you push your radical agenda. Jeff Goodell scored a PBS interview on Monday for his book The Heat Will Kill You First: Life and Death on a Scorched Earth, and on Wednesday he was awarded 36 minutes…
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.
NPR: Racist Whites Are Exploiting Asians on College Admissions Quotas
National "Public" Radio often airs very one-sided political advertising instead of news. This is especially true on "systemic racism." On Weekend Edition Sunday, NPR aired a six-and-a-half minute jeremiad on how white people were exploiting Asian plaintiffs to push a fake discrimination story on college admissions, and there was no dissenting view.
NPR Scream: 'Queers, Queens, Dykes...Are Burning' Like Dropped Flags
A very special subscriber email, the subject line “Standing up to hate: Reflecting on the Pride flag,” cemented National Public Radio’s position as a left-wing woke entity first and journalistic entity a distance second: "This is a special Pride-themed edition of the Up First newsletter. Catch up on the NPR network's Pride coverage this month and meet some of NPR's LGBTQ+ employees."…
PBS: NPR Legal Scribe Claims Hunter Plea 'Somewhat Harsher' Than Usual
Hunter Biden, the controversial son of the president, pled guilty to two federal charges of tax fraud and a felony charge of gun possession on Tuesday, and that evening’s taxpayer-funded PBS News Hour proved itself eager to move along, dismissing Republican accusations of a cushy plea deal from his father’s Department of Justice, appealing to emotion by painting President Joe Biden as…
NPR Lauds First U.S. ‘Drag Laureate,’ LGBTQ and Religion (Even Islam?)

Witness reporter Chloe Veltman’s profile on the public radio network’s flagship news program All Things Considered: “Nation's first 'drag laureate' kicks off Pride in San Francisco.”
