PBS’s Capehart: Trump ‘Deified,’ I'm ‘Terrified’ of ‘We Love Trump'
PBS’s coverage of Night Four of the Republican National Convention again featured the Washington Post’s Jonathan Capehart holding up the liberal end of the political analysis. (David Brooks of the New York Times was the ostensible conservative on the panel, but they often agreed with each other.) Capehart spent most of the four nights of the convention whining that the…

PBS RNC Night 2: Echoing 'White Supremacist Notions,' No 'Illegals'
Night Two of coverage of the Republican National Convention was “Make America Safe Once Again,” with politicians and ordinary Americans making speeches relaying stories about crime and the illegal immigration that causes some of that crime. PBS reporters and anchors sounded the alarm from the start, warning that Republicans are trying to instill unwarranted fear and anxiety in voters. At 7:08…

PBS's Capehart Can't Handle Host's Truth:'The Left Has Vilified' Trump
PBS’s coverage of Night One of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee got off to a bad start during an interview with Sen. Ron Johnson, Republican of Wisconsin, who’d just delivered an early speech to the convention delegates. At 8:07 ET, News Hour co-anchor Geoff Bennett, who is hosting the network’s taxpayer-funded convention coverage along with fellow News Hour co…

MSNBC Cries Both Sides, Calm Down After Trump Almost Gets Assassinated
Not long after former President Trump was almost assassinated on stage at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania, MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart brought never-Trumper Max Boot on as a guest for The Saturday Show and duo proceeded to talk about how political violence was a problem on both sides of the aisle and wanted people to calm down before speaking about it.

PBS Hails Biden Press Conference, Compares Him To Reagan
Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart and New York Times columnist David Brooks joined PBS News Hour host Geoff Bennett on Friday for their weekly recap of the news, which naturally included President Joe Biden’s Thursday press conference. Capehart urged Democrats to stop “self-immolating” over Biden’s candidacy, while Brooks compared him to President…

FLASHBACK: Lib Media Hated Hur’s ‘Elderly...Poor Memory’ Biden Report
In February, journalists vilified then-Special Counsel Robert Hur for honestly reporting that the decision not to pursue charges against Biden for willfully mishandling classified documents was because a jury would likely find Biden a “sympathetic, well-meaning elderly man with a poor memory.”

MSNBC, Maxine Waters Fearmonger About Violence Under Trump
On Saturday’s episode of MSNBC’s The Saturday Show, host Jonathan Capehart interviewed California Democratic Representative Maxine Waters about her experience receiving death threats from a Texas man and predictably hijacked this into an absurd conversation about the threat of violence posed by a second Donald Trump presidency.

PBS Pans 'Creepy' Hunter Trial That 'Has Nothing To Do With' Policy
When Washington Post associate editor and MSNBC host Jonathan Capehart and New York Times columnist David Brooks recapped former President Donald Trump’s conviction on PBS NewsHour one week ago, they hailed it as a victory for the rule of law and warned that anyone who dissented was simply being political and a grave threat to institutions. When it came to discussing…

'Sounds Like Politics': PBS Mourns GOP Attacking Trump Verdict
PBS NewsHour’s weekly recap with New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart had a lot to discuss on Friday as they discussed former President Donald Trump being found guilty in New York. The common thread throughout, however, was that in “the before times” Republicans and conservatives would have lined up to simply…

PBS 'News' Bias: Upside-Down Alito Flag Bigger Than Kavanaugh Assassin
On Friday’s PBS NewsHour, the Week in Review segment dove into the New York Times “scoop” that the flag flew upside down for a few days in January 2021 outside the home of Supreme Court justice Samuel Alito. This was Big News? Two years ago, when a man showed up outside Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s house intending to assassinate him, the NewsHour didn’t find…

Capehart On Biden's Israel Critics: 'Haven't Been Paying Attention'
Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart told Friday’s PBS NewsHour that anyone who believes that President Joe Biden is playing politics by withholding aid from Israel hasn’t “been paying attention.” Unfortunately, for both Capehart and Biden, the latter’s previous comments about Israel and its enemies are resurfacing and they put that claim very much in doubt.
