The taxpayer-supported PBS News Hour threw around accusations of hate and racism against the Republican presidential ticket in two segments Tuesday evening, for daring to amplify complaints from the residents of Springfield, Ohio regarding the influx of Haitians into their city, putting stresses on social services and residential quality of life.
Anchor Amna Nawaz: It's been a week since former…
After bashing Donald Trump nonstop for spreading various conspiracy theories, the PBS News Hour seemed quite comfortable spreading its own election conspiracies on Thursday evening, going beyond even MSNBC in suggesting that Trump-appointed postmaster Louis DeJoy (retained by the Biden administration) could somehow be fostering ballot delivery delays to help Trump win election, or something..…
The PBS News Hour relished the presidential debate between Vice-President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump, who they believe was fact-checked into oblivion and succumbed to Harris’s baiting tactics.
Co-anchor Geoff Bennett loved that “the former president was repeatedly fact-checked for inaccuracies” by ABC News’s hopelessly hostile moderators, before throwing the story to Harris…
PBS News Weekend again hosted Melissa Deckman, CEO of the Public Religion Research Institute, a decidedly left-wing polling firm, to talk about voting patterns among “Generation Z.” But there were no ideological labels for Deckman on tax-funded PBS on Sunday, even as she forwarded optimistic views of the youth (Generation Z, born between 1997 and 2012) flocking to Democratic policies, which were…
Taxpayer-supported PBS snuck in some old-fashioned Democratic politicking under the guise of a soft Labor Day feature from the Minnesota State Fair, that just happened to have been blessed with a non-campaign visit (yeah, right!) by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Kamala Harris’s running mate.
Anchor John Yang: The Minnesota State Fair draws more daily visitors than any other state fair in the nation….…
The latest Washington Week with The Atlantic was most notable for National Public Radio’s senior political editor Domenico Montanaro ludicrous fact-checking of Trump vs. Harris and host Jeffrey Goldberg’s accusations of double standards in media coverage of the campaign -- in favor of Trump!.
Moderator Jeffrey Goldberg: I want to talk about, I`ll call it plainly, a double standard that we have…
Anchor Amna Nawaz hosted on Thursday’s PBS News Hour as her expert Steven Erlanger, chief diplomatic correspondent and former Jerusalem bureau chief and fiercely pro-Palestinian voice for years at the paper. They spoke about Israel killing young Islamic Jihad leader Mohammed Jaber in a West Bank action.
Amna Nawaz: ….So these Israeli forces had been trying to kill Mohammed Jaber for a very long…
As the election looms and the media burrows deeper into the bag for the Democratic presidential ticket, the online headlines at PBS News Hour are getting sharper and more partisan, like this one to accompany a Wednesday evening segment by the show’s most partisan reporter, Laura Barron-Lopez: “Harris kicks off Georgia tour as Trump posts grievances on social media.”
The contrast was sharp from…
The panelists on the post-Democratic convention edition of PBS’s Washington Week with The Atlantic’s Friday night political roundtable offered an assortment of bias, lauding the Harris campaign the night after her acceptance speech, while also praising Michelle Obama as “the most admired woman on Earth” and maybe the whole solar system and spouting about the Democratic embrace of “freedom.”

One piece of PBS’s coverage of the Democratic National Convention unwittingly confirmed media labeling bias on PBS and other outlets. Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart hailed the Democrat’s vice-presidential nominee Tim Walz for using the supposedly less frightening and more convincing term “gun safety legislation” instead of “gun violence laws” (which the PBS News Hour has also…
