'PUBLIC' TV Watch: PBS Reserves 'Controversial' Label for Trump
The word “controversial” is often a word used to signal to viewers that someone is politically radioactive. So naturally, the liberal minds in “public” broadcasting must use it in a tilted way.

PBS Marks Earth Day With 'Environmental Justice' Scare-Mongering
Taxpayer-funded PBS marked Earth Day with typical liberal scare-mongering on its news programs, hosting a Washington Post “environmental health” journalist who sounded more like an environmental health activist on a quest for so-called environmental justice, followed by a radical environmentalist, with no dissenting guests and few if any challenging questions posed. First up on Sunday…
PBS's Marx-Quoting 'Conservative' Urges Strikes To Protest Trump
If there were still any questions that PBS is a liberal network in need of defunding, Friday’s News Hour removed any remaining doubts.

PBS Uses Stealth Biden Treasury Staffer to Criticize DOGE's IRS Cuts
Wednesday’s edition of the PBS News Hour took on yet another unlabeled liberal or Democrat-linked critic of Trump as its guest expert on an issue, this time defending the dubious idea of tax-related privacy rights for illegal immigrants against DOGE’s budget cuts to the IRS and warning the agency could well implode during tax season as a result: "For decades, the IRS encouraged…

'PUBLIC' Broadcasting Watch: PBS and NPR Delight LGBTQ Propagandists
As much as the CEOs of PBS and NPR claim to Congress they are nonpartisan and unbiased, there are many ways to demonstrate they careen to the Left.
