Column: PBS Brings Tar and Feathers for William F. Buckley

Whoopi Goldberg Couldn’t Remember What Years Trump Ran for President
As moderator for ABC’s The View, Whoopi Goldberg made it a point of pride to never say former President Donald Trump’s name; preferring to call him “you know who” like he’s Voldemort from Harry Potter.

NPR Insider BOMBSHELL: We Lost Public Trust by Lurching Leftward

CBS, NBC Ignore ISIS-Inspired Terror Plot Targeting Idaho Christians
One would think the liberal broadcast networks would be eager to give President Biden a counterterrorism win during an election year, or at least praise the FBI for finally stopping an ISIS-inspired terrorist attack before it happened.

Networks HIDE ‘Death To Israel And America’ Chants on American Soil
“Death To Israel And America” chants broke out on Al-Quds Day, a day instituted by the Ayatollah Khomeini to protest against America and Israel.

NBC Hopes Biden Student Loan Bailout Will Attract Disaffected Youth
Under normal circumstances, a new student loan bailout program would garner significant evening newscast airtime.

NewsBusters Podcast: The Leftist Media Often Can't 'Get Religion'
