PBS and NPR each faced the difficulty on Wednesday night of covering their own bosses taking tough questions from Republicans at the Capitol in a hearing on Wednesday. PBS actually aired a Republican citing us -- just as a "conservative media watchdog group."

Column: The New York Times Defends Their P.R. Partners at PBS and NPR
The House DOGE subcommittee presses the CEOs of PBS and NPR about their biases, but The New York Times warned of "dark pronouncements by Republicans" in "a fiery hearing that represented the latest salvo against the American press by close allies of the Trump administration.” Exposing liberal bias is "anti-press." The Times attacking Fox News is not "anti-press."
NewsBusters Podcast: NPR, PBS Bosses Bizarrely Profess 'No Bias Here'
In a House hearing, Republicans pressed the bosses of PBS and NPR on the blatant leftist bias of their news shows, and both leaders claimed these networks are unbiased and nonpartisan. No one believes this.
Gaslighting: PBS Tries to Refute Bias Claims Before House Testimony
Before Wednesday’s congressional testimony from the heads of PBS and NPR in front of the House Subcommittee on Delivering Government Efficiency (DOGE), PBS’s flagship news show News Hour offered up some gaslighting on Tuesday evening in defense of the program’s political objectivity and balance -- a laughable proposition to anyone who has watched an episode.

PBS News Weekend helped their brethren at NPR promote a podcast series on Sunday in a segment headlined "How online misinformation is ‘supercharging’ conspiracy theories."

NewsBusters Podcast: Cheering and Laughing at the 'Tesla Takedown'
Rooting for bad things to happen to your adversaries isn't unusual. But when Rush Limbaugh said "I hope he fails" about incoming President Obama in 2009, leftists suggested he should be executed for treason. Now, people are talking about vandalism against Elon Musk's Tesla vehicles and dealerships, and crowds cheer and laugh as the Tesla stock price sinks. The double standard is obvious, with…
NPR Hosts Debate -- Between Begala Democrats and Nutty AOC Democrats
NPR recently hosted a debate between two sides. No, it's not between Democrats and Republicans, but between liberal Democrats and really radical Democrats. On Tuesday's Morning Edition, the establishment Democrat was old Clinton spinner Paul Begala, and the radical was Waleed Shahid.
'PUBLIC' Broadcasting Watch: 'Fresh Air' Adores Leftist Media Outlets
Right now, the guardians of the "public" broadcasting empire are defending their tax subsidies by claiming it's somehow extremely unique, and not just another liberal set of networks. In reality, PBS and NPR are echo chambers for legacy liberal media outlets. The NPR talk show Fresh Air has lavished hours on The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, and other…

George Will Surprise! CPB Is Useless, Like an Appendix, So Defund It
In recent years, Washington Post columnist George Will has not been our favorite. I called him "Jennifer Rubin with shorter hair." But he still pens a conservative column from time to time, clearly upsetting left-wing Post subscribers with a Sunday column suggesting the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is useless, and should be defunded.
NPR Show Selects Paranoid Leftist Caller: The GOP Might Rule Forever!
One way you can identify the leftist tilt on NPR stations is by listening to the callers that are taken on NPR-distributed talk shows. On the latest episode of Left, Right, and Center, coming out of KCRW out of California, the host (or "center") David Greene set the agenda with a paranoid leftist caller who asked what's to stop Trump, the congressional Republicans, and the…
