PBS

NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck made his latest appearance early Saturday/late Friday on the Fox News Channel’s Fox News @ Night and, as usual, sounded off with his picks for highs and lows of the week in the liberal media. His picks this time included a surprising take from a rabid MSNBC partisan and then another example of how PBS uses American tax dollars to peddle far-…

Publicly funded PBS sponsors a sort of film festival of short films, gathered from their public media partners and PBS member stations nationwide. The festival had an theatrical premier in Manhattan in July before switching to digital streaming. This year there are 25 entries, mostly documentaries, none of which sound like the next coming of Quentin Tarantino. Painful leftist earnestness…

At the PBS NewsHour, they hate the overturning of Roe vs. Wade and abortion on demand so much, they will relate it to domestic violence. As if abortion isn't violence? The Dobbs decision led to a "massive uptick" at the National Domestic Violence Hotline.

Three recent stories by newly minted New York Times congressional correspondent Karoun Demirjian on the fight to pass the National Defense Authorization Act demonized Republicans for opposing radical social agendas Democrats are pushing on the military. She also appeared on tax-funded PBS to rant against alleged GOP racism. 

PBS NewHour host Geoff Bennett, New York Times columnist David Brooks, and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart came together on Friday to discuss multiple-defense related controversies from the past week and accuse Republicans of “screwing up” the military for the sake of their “culture wars.”

The media may occasionally observe the massive learning loss caused by shuttered schools during the COVID pandemic, an unnecessary and actively harmful measure encouraged by left-wing teachers unions, which protested reopening schools, sometimes with disgusting anti-back-to-school protests, even after it was obvious that children were the group least affected by COVID. But there was no mention…

The PBS News Hour Monday evening offered yet another one-sided take on a fiercely contested ideological issue: The Supreme Court’s striking down of racial preferences in college admissions. Host Amna Nawaz’s guest was a UCLA doctor and racial activist. Together,  they decried the Supreme Court decision and schemed for ways to work around it, including the possibly dangerous step of…

For their Iconic America documentary on the Statue of Liberty, PBS made sure to get plenty of perspectives on what that statue means. Unfortunately, it was a wide variety of left-wing perspectives as PBS struggled to decide whether Lady Liberty rebukes immigration enforcement or partly associates liberty with whiteness.

Jeff Goodell, environmental author and Rolling Stone contributor with a tendency toward climate apocalypticism, joined fill-in Amanpour & Co. host Bianna Golodryga on Monday for a segment that extrapolated wildly from the hot Texas summer (stop the presses!) to find an “existential threat” in a world-wide “climate crisis.” He even said "these extreme heat events are…

On Friday's PBS NewsHour, co-host Amna Nawaz expressed alarm that a federal judge issued a ruling that "essentially bans the Biden administration from communicating with social media companies about misinformation or disinformation online." PBS political analyst Jonathan Capehart found it mind-boggling "in the middle of a pandemic." What time machine is he traveling in?

On the Friday night PBS roundtable Washington Week, the journalists offered the usual servings for the two parties. The Democrats were merely described...and the Republicans were marked as doomed to lose. 

The tax-funded PBS NewsHour marked the Independence Day holiday in its own inimitable style by trying to tie the patriotic celebration to right-wing extremism and the January 6 Capitol Hill riots. Congressional reporter Lisa Desjardins sat down with two liberal professors to decry the dangers of the right wing on Tuesday evening. Host Amna Nawaz set the scene for PBS’s attempt to…

The Supreme Court ended its term with several major decisions favorable to conservatives, and tax-funded public broadcasting, which is ostensibly objective, failed to hide its displeasure in its Friday evening analysis, including its take on the Court’s 6-3 decision in the 303 CREATIVE LLC case, that a website designer in Colorado had a First Amendment right to refuse to design…

Friday’s edition of the tax-funded PBS News Hour took a jab at the influential new conservative parents’ rights group Moms for Liberty, which drew some Republican presidential candidates to its convention last week. Moms was founded to oppose school closings and mask-vaccine mandates in schools and which now targets the teaching of Critical Race Theory and gender identity in schools.…
