Liberal media symbiosis in action: Jeffrey Goldberg. editor-and-chief of The Atlantic and host of the PBS show Washington Week with The Atlantic, appeared as a guest on Wednesday’s PBS News Hour program to discuss his own anonymously sourced Atlantic hit piece, “Trump: ‘I Need the Kind of Generals That Hitler Had.'"

The PBS News Hour led off two nights in a row with campaign trail reports from Laura Barron-Lopez, their most partisan reporter. Anchor Geoff Bennett set the scene Monday evening, with Donald Trump in North Carolina on a post-hurricane Helene trip and Kamala Harris touring with former Republican congresswoman and famed anti-Trumper Liz Cheney. The story’s online headline did much of…

When Republican vice presidential hopeful J.D. Vance appeared at a Christian conservative town hall in Monroeville, Penn., hosted by controversial right-wing preacher Lance Wallnau on September 28, PBS ran a full story two days later on the threat of “Christian Nationalism” and by implication, of Vance himself. Never mind that Vance was not actually interviewed by Wallnau, who didn’t even…

PBS News Weekend aired yet another story Sunday on suicides by “LGBTQ-plus” teenagers allegedly due to callous Republicans passing laws “targeting transgender people.” Openly gay anchor John Yang and other members of the PBS News crew regularly push the emotional blackmail claim that gender dysphoric kids are at higher risk of suicide, which is exactly the scary message the gender…

On Friday’s edition of Washington Week with The Atlantic, it was The New Yorker’s Susan Glasser who dished out the most inflammatory anti-Trump statements, trying to literally scare up Democratic votes as the Harris campaign lists less than three weeks before the presidential election: "Kamala Harris is no longer making fun of Donald Trump and saying he’s weird. She`s saying…

PBS News Hour sought to answer the question on Friday of why Kamala Harris is struggling with male voters. Both New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart agreed that it is important not to “downplay the role that sexism” plays here.

Behold tax-funded PBS’s idea of balanced election coverage: A “Republican” campaign strategist who endorsed the Democrat was interviewed on Tuesday night’s show, and a die-hard Democratic partisan strategist on Wednesday night. Former John McCain campaign strategist Mike Murphy had already signed a letter endorsing Harris over Trump, yet somehow appeared as a “Republican.”  

Bill Adair, Duke University journalism professor and founder of the “fact-checking” site PolitiFact, indulged his warped scales with a sympathetic host on tax-funded PBS, sending out a fair-and-balanced message: Republicans love to lie! Adair: "[Democrats] feel shame in ways that I'm afraid too many politicians on the right do not…."

Former Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was interviewed in the studio by journalist Christiane Amanpour on Tuesday’s PBS edition of Amanpour & Co. (after airing on CNN International), based on Pelosi’s new book The Art of Power, and together they hated on Israel, Israel’s conservative leader Benjamin Netanyahu, and America’s former Republican president…

The online headline captured the tone of Monday’s PBS News Hour segment from the dueling Trump and Harris presidential campaigns: “Trump ramps up his dangerous political rhetoric in final weeks of campaign.” Taxpayer-supported PBS even let its gross partisanship show while showcasing the segment on X: "On the campaign trail, Vice President Kamala Harris is working to shore up support…

There was more one-sided immigration propaganda issued from tax-supported PBS on Sunday, as PBS News Weekend pushed President Biden’s “Keeping Families Together” plan, which would stay deportations and streamline the acquiring of citizenship for spouses of U.S. citizens who are in the country illegally, a plan currently on hold while being challenged by Republicans in federal court.…

Kamala Harris may be losing, but the Friday night pundits on the PBS News Hour came back around to screaming about hurricane disinformation from the Republicans. Good Republicans rate Team Biden as very helpful. 

PBS is determined to squeeze every bit of anti-Trump animus out of a moderate Republican as they can in the weeks before the election, as demonstrated on Friday. Journalist Walter Isaacson talked to Republican Gov. Mike DeWine of Ohio after guest host Bianna Golodryga opened the show with a teaser about “Haitians eating pets in Springfield,” now elevated to “dangerous lies.”

PBS News Hour’s White House correspondent just happened to interview four “lifelong Republicans” in Arizona for Tuesday’s edition, none of whom would be voting for Trump, and who further insulted their "lifelong" party as "cowardly" and "lawless" along the way. Certainly such voters exist -- but it’s a bit odd that Barron-Lopez either couldn’t find or didn’t want to amplify any…
