Washington Week

Friday’s edition of Washington Week with The Atlantic played defense for the Democratic Party in California over the raging wildfires that have destroyed tens of thousands of acres and thousands of houses, with one panelist in particular taking the time to chiding Trump and call Republicans liars for daring to point out the obvious failures of human response. 

Both the PBS News Hour and PBS’s weekly journalist roundtable Washington Week in Review used the new 199^th Congress and Rep. Mike Johnson narrowly winning the vote to become Speaker of the House to break out their biased labeling tricks. Washington Week moderator and Atlantic editor Jeffrey Goldberg (along with contributors Leigh Ann Caldwell and David Ignatius of…

Washington Week with The Atlantic’s year-in-review episode Friday contained a fleeting reference to a bombshell Wall Street Journal story about how the White House and Democrats actively hid President Joe Biden’s descent into decrepitude, including several public stumbles, shaking hands with the air, and taking the “short stairs” up Air Force One.

The journalists around this week’s Washington Week with The Atlantic roundtable had great fun mocking president-elect Donald Trump’s Cabinet picks. Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic magazine and the regular moderator of the panel, set the…

PBS’s weekly political roundtable Washington Week with the Atlantic gathered for the second time since Donald Trump’s reelection reeling from his proposed cabinet picks. New York Times Washington Bureau Chief Elisabeth Bumiller used aggressively antagonistic language to describe the picks. It's a "rogues' gallery," including Tulsi Gabbard, a "girlfriend" of the Russians.

Nothing underlines the partisan nature of PBS right now than The Atlantic magazine being allowed to take over the long-running Washington Week program in August of 2023. This was not a hostile takeover, but a deeper branding of what PBS is – taxpayer-funded mangle-MAGA TV.

On the post-election edition of PBS’s Friday political roundtable, Washington Week with The Atlantic, Susan Glasser of The New Yorker delivered the bitter highlights, covering the same ground as she did in her New Yorker article, “Donald Trump’s Revenge -- The former President will return to the White House older, less inhibited, and far more dangerous than ever…

On Friday evening’s Washington Week with The Atlantic on tax-funded PBS, show host and Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg set a “foreboding” scene, just a few days before Election Day. He threw in all the anti-Trump buzzwords,…

After days of declaring that Donald Trump admires Adolf Hitler and dismissing evidence that his scoop that Trump cursed in a racist manner at the cost of a military funeral was false, The Atlantic’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, took his place in the anchor’s chair of PBS’s Washington Week with The Atlantic and declared it is only “allegedly extreme” for Kamala Harris to…

On Friday’s edition of Washington Week with The Atlantic, it was The New Yorker’s Susan Glasser who dished out the most inflammatory anti-Trump statements, trying to literally scare up Democratic votes as the Harris campaign lists less than three weeks before the presidential election: "Kamala Harris is no longer making fun of Donald Trump and saying he’s weird. She`s saying…

Washington Week with The Atlantic, PBS’s weekly political roundtable featuring outside journalists, was particularly harsh on candidate Donald Trump and running mate J.D. Vance this week, perhaps prodded by guest host Laura Barron-Lopez, the most liberally biased reporter on the PBS News Hour. Barron-Lopez asked The Atlantic’s Adam Harris about the candidates’…

The latest Washington Week with The Atlantic, the journalistic political roundtable airing every Friday evening on tax-funded PBS, featured Atlantic magazine journalist Caitlin Dickerson accusing Donald Trump of not just racism, but using the rhetoric of “fascist neo-Nazi groups,” for his insistence on enforcing the borders and lowering immigration levels from certain world…

The latest Washington Week with The Atlantic on PBS was most notable for NPR senior political editor Domenico Montanaro's ludicrously imbalanced fact-checking of Trump vs. Harris and host Jeffrey Goldberg’s accusations of double standards in media coverage of the campaign -- in favor of Trump!

The panelists on the post-Democratic convention edition of PBS’s Washington Week with The Atlantic’s Friday night political roundtable offered an assortment of bias, lauding the Harris campaign the night after her acceptance speech, while also praising Michelle Obama as “the most admired woman on Earth” and maybe the whole solar system and spouting about the Democratic embrace of “…
