Hacks for Hamas: PBS Sees ‘Staggering Milestone in Gaza’ on Death Toll
Even more so than the network evening news shows, the PBS NewsHour and PBS News Weekend news programs have been obsessed with the death toll in Gaza during Israel’s counterattack, even to the point of downplaying the latest Trump courtroom dramas (usually catnip for the liberal press) in order to lead every night with the grim scenes out of Gaza. It’s a one-sided view that portrays Israel the…
