After Virginia Loss, PBS Asks 'Are Republicans Rigging The System'
After the Virginia Supreme Court ruled the state’s redistricting referendum violated the state constitution on Firday, PBS News Hour host Amna Nawaz parroted California Gov.

NPR Interviews the White Guy Who Represents a Majority-Black District
On Friday’s All Things Considered, NPR aired a seven-minute interview lamenting Republican redistricting with a man who’s rarely considered. They interviewed Rep.

PBS's Foltyn Again Avoids Hezbollah Crimes, Accuses IDF of 'Massacres'
Does PBS have a problem with Israel? Its recent treatment of Iran-backed, Israel-targeting Hezbollah terrorists suggests so. On Tuesday’s PBS News Hour, Beirut-based special correspondent Simona Foltyn once again focused solely on unavoidable civilian casualties caused by vengeful Israel, with no mention of Hezbollah’s history of terrorist violence or its consistent breaking of…
Safe for Whom? Amanpour Show Touts Abortion Pills as 'Safe' 12 TIMES
Abortion proponents love to claim abortion pills are "safe," but for whom? It's not "safe" for the baby being killed. One half of the humans involved in abortion are utterly dehumanized, not even considered in the safety equation. On the PBS show Amanpour & Co., guest host Bianna Golodryga and her abortion-lobbyist guest touted the pills as "safe" (and typically "safe and…
PBS Defends Forest Service Bureaucracy From Reform With Sob Stories
Monday’s PBS News Hour pushed the sympathy buttons and employed scare tactics to protect yet another government agency threatened by Trump-era reform and budget cuts, the U.S. Forest Service. Reporter William Brangham implied federal employees deserve to be shielded from harsh job cuts, in a way American workers in the private sector have not.
Capehart Insists Assassination Attempt Was Just Common Gun Violence
MS NOW host Jonathan Capehart had a rough Friday night on PBS News Hour. For one thing, he got triggered when the usually amenable The Atlantic staff writer David Brooks pointed out that progressives are more likely to support political violence than conservatives, which hurt his ability to argue the Saturday assassination attempt against President Trump was just another…
SCOTUS Rejects Racial Gerrymandering, PBS Sees Racial 'Discrimination'
Wednesday’s PBS News Hour led with a typical elitist-media, hair-on-fire response to the Supreme Court’s 6-3 vote in Louisiana v. Callais that struck down racial gerrymandering to insure black voters have the best chance to elect black representatives to Congress. Anchors Anna Nawaz and Geoff Bennett took the alarmist liberal line that the decision, which in facts affirms the…
PBS Turns to Brian Stelter to Shriek About Trump's 'Authoritarian' FCC
The die-hard Trump haters at the PBS News Hour rushed to the defense of their First Amendment hero Jimmy Kimmel by turning on Tuesday night to CNN's Brian Stelter again for liberal talking points. No conservative was invited, and there were no questions about Kimmel making wisecracks about President Trump dying.
NPR Genius Claims WHCD Shooter Is a...'Mainstream' Violent Extremist?
NPR “domestic extremism correspondent” Odette Yousef has a consistent pattern of finding extremism only on the “far right.” When Cole Young shot up the White House Correspondents Dinner, that was somehow not left-wing extremism. NPR claimed he had "no radical footprint," that his conspiracy theories about Trump are "a kind of mainstream left."
Forget the Shooting! PBS Horrified Trump Would Go 'Very Hard' on Press
Anchor Amna Nawaz’s introduction to Monday evening’s regular PBS News Hour political discussion confirmed conservative beliefs that the elitist mainstream press is unbendingly hostile to Donald Trump, even after the third attempt on the president’s life in less than two years.
NPR Again Ignores Jewish Suffering in Sob Story on Terrorist's Family
NPR has not stopped its journalistic habit of downplaying Jewish suffering and endangerment, even after Public Editor Kelly McBride faulted her outlet earlier this month for failing to provide a platform for the intended victims of an attempt to blow up a Michigan synagogue. NPR did travel to the terrorist’s hometown in Lebanon and told a sympathetic story. A story posted this Sunday from…
PBS Sees Loathing of GOP in AZ: Voters 'Livid,' House Dems May Be +3
Yvonne Wingett Sanchez of The Atlantic was the star of the latest episode of the journalist roundtable Washington Week. After moderator (and Sanchez boss) Jeffrey Goldberg introduced the program with the dubious claim that “Iran is in the driver’s seat in the Gulf,” among other debatable anti-Trump declarations, he pivoted to Sanchez, a Phoenix-based reporter making her …
PBS RIPS Israel's UN Ambassador, Suggests They Aim to Kill Journalists
This sounds like a joke. But the PBS News Hour is far softer in interviewing a spokesman for the terrorist group Hezbollah than they are with Israel, which they treat like a terrorist group. On Thursday, anchor Geoff Bennett pulled out rhetorical boxing gloves for Danny Danon, Israel’s UN ambassasdor, about killing civilians and journalists.
On CNN & PBS, Amanpour Plays Up Idea of Trump's 'Superpower Suicide'
On CNN International and later on PBS, Tehran-raised Christiane Amanpour demonstrated she was very enamored of Trump-hating Yale history professor Timothy Snyder's phrase "superpower suicide" to explain what Trump is doing in the foreign policy arena. Funny, I thought giving pallets of cash to a "Death To America" Islamist regime so they could build nuclear weapons looked more like suicide.…
