PBS On Souter: 'We Need That Model' To Stand Up To Trump
Not even the death of a former Supreme Court justice can stop PBS News Hour from freaking out about President Donald Trump setting up some sort of dictatorship. On Friday, former Trump impeachment witness and David Souter law clerk Noah Feldman joined the show to remember his former boss and while he never explicitly mentioned Trump, it was clear who he was referring to when he…
PBS: Pope 'In Line With The Gospel,' But Not 'Right-Wing Politics'
The cast of Friday’s PBS News Hour joyfully welcomed the election of Pope Leo XIV on Friday as they tried to claim him as one of their own as all hailed him as the anti-Trump figure the country needs, but all also avoided any parts of Leo that might make them uncomfortable.

Column: PBS, the Pelosi Broadcasting Service
Last week, PBS and San Francisco PBS station KQED hosted a “Reframe Festival,” and PBS News Hour anchor Geoff Bennett conducted a scandalously sappy interview with Nancy Pelosi. Nearly every question Bennett teed up for Pelosi requested the “Democratic counterargument” to Trump, and no questions about forcing out Joe Biden.
PBS IS MSNBC: 'Morning Joe' Puffs PBS CEO for Their 'Reliable' News!
Morning Joe devoted a segment on Thursday to supporting taxpayer funding of PBS, with a series of softball questions for PBS CEO Paula Kerger.
PBS: Protecting Jewish Students Equals 'Chilling of Speech on Campus'
The PBS News Hour ended Tuesday evening’s show to a discussion of the “chilling effect” of Trump’s executive actions on free speech on campus, based on the pro-Hamas agitators occupying campus quads and sometimes vandalizing campus buildings and attacking Jewish students, a segment slanted heavily toward the pro-Palestinian side. No surprise there, given that a June 2024 Media…
New MSNBC Show: Did Trump Defund PBS Because He Thinks Elmo Is Black?
Tuesday saw the second-ever installment of MSNBC’s The Weeknight, featuring Alicia Menendez, former Kamala Harris spokeswoman Symone Sanders-Townsend, and former RNC chairman and current liberal talking points repeater Michael Steele. The trio of Joy Reid replacements did their best to continue her legacy by wondering if President Trump decided to defund PBS because he thinks Elmo is…
Trump’s Rumble on Sesame Street
President Donald Trump has fought plenty of political heavyweights, but now he’s up against a foe far tougher than Hillary Clinton or Kamala Harris: Big Bird. The president is ordering federal agencies and the taxpayer-funded Corporation for Public Broadcasting to stop supporting National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service. His May 1 executive order is titled “Ending Taxpayer…
Velshi Claims Public Broadcasting Leads To Healthier Democracy

LOL: Cory Booker Uses Liberal 'West Wing' Clip to Defend PBS, NPR
If it's not annoying enough that liberals are defending PBS with an antiquated clip of Mister Rogers testifying to Congress in 1969, it's really annoying that now they're using clips from The West Wing, as Sen. Cory Booker did, insisting PBS offers "trusted journalism." It's a "cornerstone of civic life."
CBS's Brennan Lines Up NPR and PBS CEOs to Dismiss Incessant Bias
One really easy way to know that TV journalists are Democrats is how they rush to defense of PBS and NPR and use all the same arguments that Democrats have made in congressional hearings and social media. They willfully ignore the incessant bias of "public" broadcasting and deflect back to kiddie shows like Sesame Street, as if that's anything like comparing Trump to Hitler. On Sunday…
PBS Clashes With Rufo: Deportations Make Trump a Free-Speech Hypocrite
Perhaps responding to pressure from the Trump Administration threatening federal funding of PBS and NPR over their liberal slant, the PBS News Hour is beginning to pepper its guest list with the occasional conservative. But those guests don’t get the typical soft-soap treatment reserved for liberal activists (and almost never labeled as such) but instead receive a defensive, combative…
PBS Promotes Elie Mystal's Rage: Immigration Laws Are Deeply Racist
One easy way to prove that PBS and NPR are like taxpayer-funded MSNBC is their promotion of radical ranter Elie Mystal of The Nation magazine. On Amanpour & Co. on Friday, Hari Sreenivasan tossed softballs at Mystal for 17 minutes over his new book Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America. On March 24, NPR's Fresh Air platformed his rage for 36…
