PBS Hosts 'Zionist' to Defend Protesters, Call Trump Danger to Jews
Monday’s edition of Amanpour & Co., which airs on PBS and CNN International, was hosted by regular show fill-in Bianna Golodryga, who is probably even more bluntly liberal than the formidable Christiane Amanpour herself.

PBS Unmoved By Claim 'We Know' There's 'At Least Three Genders'

Christiane Amanpour is an international affairs correspondent, but for Friday’s PBS edition of Amanpour, she interviewed playwright Joe Murphy and actor Stephen Kunken at the Soho Place theatre in London, where the climate change message play Kyoto, cowritten by Murphy and starring Kunken, is being performed.

PBS Pushes Movie About Affair, Hypes Women 'Claiming Their Sexuality'
As Monty Python might say, “And now for something completely different.” On Monday’s edition of her PBS show that originally airs on CNN International, Christiane Amanpour welcomed Babygirl director Halina Reijn to discuss the film and its place in society.

PBS Oozes Over Paul Krugman: He Sees 'Resurrection' of Biden's Image
On Friday’s PBS airing of Amanpour & Co., host Christiane Amanpour introduced “the Nobel prize winning economist, Paul Krugman, who's written his last column for The New York Times, after 25 years of sharp and often indispensable takes on major issues that shape America and the world.” But NewsBusters has compiled decades of research proving Krugman’s knee-jerk…
