‘Morning Joe’ Puffs PBS CEO: We Need ‘Reliable News Sources’ Now More Than Ever!
NewsBusters ^ | 05/08/2025 | Mark Finkelstein

On Thursday, Morning Joe did its part in circling the wagons around PBS/NPR, bringing on PBS CEO Paula Kerger, teeing her up to make the case to keep the pipeline of taxpayer dollars open.

In a moment of unintentional hilarity, Katty Kay, an employee of the government-funded BBC, told Kerger:

"In an era of growing misinformation, we need reliable news sources even more than we ever have."

Reliably liberal, Katty surely meant to say!

As the Daily Signal has noted:

"OpenSecrets reports that 100% of political donations from PBS employees went to Democrats during the 2024 political cycle."

Tacit admission that MSNBC is not one.

I miss Roy Underhill and “The Woodwright’s Shop”. That’s about it. Downtown Abbey wasn’t bad.

Everyone in the liberal media needs to told and taught about the evil liberal bias of PBS & NPR.

The best way to do that is to have them read Ken Stern's book Republicans like me. Ken was the CEO of NPR. He admitted that he did not know any Republicans and where he lived there were no Republicans. When he retired from NPR, he went on a journey to “fly over land.” He went to church services, NASCAR races, went hunting, went to backyard BBQ’s. During this he learned that he had lived in a liberal bubble and had no idea how honest, spiritual and good those on the right really were.

This is the problem with the liberal media.......they get their talking points from the NYT and Democratic Party press releases.
