Saturday’s edition of PBS News Weekend led with a story on the coronation of King Charles in England, but the story was dominated by anti-monarchy protesters. This was not the BBC. Correspondent Malcolm Brabant relayed "The arrests have been widely condemned by opposition parliamentarians, and Human Rights Watch, which said this was something you would expect in Moscow, not London."…

Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart spent Friday’s PBS NewHour laughing at GOP allegations that Democrats are going after Justice Clarence Thomas simply because they do not like the Supreme Court’s recent rulings, implausible arguing this is just about transparency. Meanwhile, New York Times columnist David Brooks tried to find a centrist middle ground…

On Monday’s edition of Amanpour & Co., which airs on tax-funded PBS, South Carolina GOP state senator Penry Gustafson got a rare dose of laudable media attention for a Republican lawmaker, for helping turn back proposed legislation South Carolina that would have banned abortion from the moment of conception.

It was Happy Hour for the cultural left on Friday evening’s PBS NewsHour, as host Geoff Bennett celebrated with PBS’s St. Louis-based “communities correspondent” Gabrielle Hays on how progressives and pro-choice Republicans were beating back Republican extremism on abortion and transgender rights in various statehouses: "In Kansas yesterday, Republican lawmakers overrode the…

The tax-funded PBS NewsHour on Wednesday night was the latest outlet to leap upon the cause of Montana legislator and transgender Democrat Zooey Zephyr, barred from the House chamber for violating rules of decorum during a debate on a bill that would ban so-called “gender-affirming care” for gender-dysmorphic minors wishing to surgically or chemically “transition.” The vote came after…

On Tuesday's Amanpour & Co. show, PBS host Christiane Amanpour used her taxpayer-funded program to promote phony claims that Tennessee Republicans were racially motivated because they expelled two black Democrats from the state legislature while failing to expel a white Democrat.

Tuesday's PBS NewsHour displayed a stark partisan contrast in coverage. It began with eleven minutes of promotional coverage of Biden's re-election announcement, with no mention of Hunter Biden. They then followed with eight minutes of negative coverage about the civil rape trial of Donald Trump as alleged by journalist E. Jean Carroll.

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…

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…

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…

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…

PBS NewsHour host Geoff Bennett welcomed back the show’s political team, Amy Walter of The Cook Political Report and Tamara Keith of National Public Radio, for a spicy Monday evening rehash of the previous week’s fiery political happenings, through a tax-funded, Democratic prism. After a clip from Sen. Lindsey Graham warning Republicans to adopt “reasonable positions” on abortion to…

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...

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."
