On Friday's The Last Word on MSNBC, fill-in host Katy Tur presided over a panel discussion which placed the blame for recent rioting on President Donald Trump, and also blamed Fox News for convincing Trump voters not see him as responsible.

On Thursday night, PBS anchor Judy Woodruff hammered top Trump aide Mark Meadows with hardballs, that the Republicans are mercilessly exaggerating Biden as some sort of socialist....as if liberal journalists don't exaggerate Donald Trump into a lunatic extremist and racist who's a danger to democracy. Last week, Biden's deputy campaign manager was pitched softball questions.

Last week during the Democratic National Convention, journalists and media outlets did their best to bury the 1993 sexual assault accusations against Joe Biden.

On Friday night’s PBS NewsHour, their political analyst Mark Shields ranted that somehow, the Trump administration’s handling of the U.S. Postal Service was “nothing less” than segregationist sheriff Bull…

On Monday's Amanpour & Co. on PBS and CNN International, host Christiane Amanpour gave an unchallenged forum to two Democratic guests to push for a universal health care program in the U.S. She even suggested that a national health plan similar to that of the United Kingdom would be beneficial during the pandemic in spite of the COVID-19 death rate being substantially higher in…

Apparently Elwood City, Arthur the aardvark’s hometown, has a racism and police brutality problem. During a recent episode of longtime PBS Kids favorite Arthur, two of the show's central characters discuss seeing a video of police killing a black person and discuss their feelings of anger and confusion over it.
