Column: Elitist ‘Public’ TV, Radio Defines ‘Viewpoint Discrimination’
The newspapers routinely play Hide the Ideology when liberal judges are resisting President Trump. They’ll write “A federal judge” ruled against Trump, and not tell consumers that the judge is a liberal. Liberals are always painted as nonpartisans when they act like partisans.
That’s the case with Obama-appointed judge (and former Clinton Justice Department attorney) Randolph Moss, who mysteriously found it was a violation of the First Amendment and “viewpoint discrimination” for Trump to push defunding of PBS and NPR in an executive order.
“The message is clear: NPR and PBS need not apply for any federal benefit because the President disapproves of their ‘left-wing’ coverage of the news,” wrote the partisan judge. The First Amendment “does not tolerate viewpoint discrimination and retaliation of this type.”
They loved this ruling at NPR. “Today’s ruling is a decisive affirmation of the rights of a free and independent press,” BLM-loving NPR CEO Katherine Maher said in a statement. An “independent press” isn’t defined by taking government money. That makes you a dependent press.
Then Maher unleashed her typical insincerity: “Public media exists to serve the public interest — that of Americans — not that of any political agenda or elected official.” Everyone listening to NPR knows that’s a pants-on-fire lie. NPR whistleblower Uri Berliner found in D.C. voter records that the NPR newsroom had 87 registered Democrats and no registered Republicans.
PBS said in a statement that the judge’s ruling affirmed that Trump imposed “textbook unconstitutional viewpoint discrimination and retaliation, in violation of longstanding First Amendment principles.”
Where on Earth in the First Amendment is the part about how conservatives should have to support government-funded viewpoint discrimination and retaliation? PBS and NPR have been discriminating against conservatives and Republicans since the Nixon years.
That’s why the phrase “public broadcasting” is ludicrous. They have no interest in representing the entire public. They are broadcasting by the Left, for the Left. They’re like taxpayer-funded MS NOW. There’s no reason for taxpayers to support that.
When we’ve studied guest counts, the tilt is obvious. In the first four months of Trump’s second term, we found the PBS News Hour guest count was 173 liberals to 41 conservatives – a ratio of 4.2 to 1. When elected officials and political appointees were removed from the count, the ideological tilt was 149-23, or 6.5 to 1.
That’s actually much better than NPR’s ludicrously titled All Things Considered evening newscast. In the two months after Congress rescinded their funding – from July 19 to September 18, 2025 – the guest count was 53 liberals to three conservatives – and one of those three was opposed to Trump. That’s almost 18 to 1. Nobody at NPR believes in what they call “false balance.” They believe in rhetorically shoving conservatives to the ground and roughing them up. After all the bullying, they steal their lunch money.
These people have the audacity to claim they’re on the wrong side of “viewpoint discrimination.” It’s the same way that liberals insist you can’t object to The View having a guest disparity of 128-2, or late-night comedians favoring liberal guests 99 percent of the time (as per our 2025 counts). At least these shows didn’t take conservative money and bash them over the head with it.
Luckily, Congress rescinded the subsidies for PBS and NPR (for now), and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting shut down their propaganda-backing shop. But as soon as Democrats get back control of Congress, they’ll start trying to subsidize it all over again. Why wouldn’t Democrats want to fund DNC Media? That’s why the entire “public broadcasting” concept is an enormous fraud.
OMISSION WATCH: Network Newscasts Mostly Ignore The Supreme Court
There are several major stories swirling around the United States Supreme Court that have gone grossly undercovered or outright ignored by the Elitist Media. It’s as if the media didn’t want their viewers learning about an inconvenient ruling and a pivotal argument, both against major policy items for the left.
First, there is the Supreme Court 8-1 opinion (with Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson the sole dissenter) declaring that Colorado’s ban on “conversion therapy” likely violates constitutional free exercise protections. ABC World News Tonight was the sole network newscast to carry the story. Below is that report in its entirety, as aired on Tuesday, March 31st, 2026:

DAVID MUIR: Tonight, after the state of Colorado had banned conversion therapy for LGBTQ minors. Tonight, the Supreme Court now ruling against that ban. In an 8-1 decision, the justices saying the law likely violates a Christian therapist’s free speech. More than half the states have in the U.S. have similar laws like Colorado had, restricting the practice saying it is ineffective and harmful to minors.
Despite it being a 22-second brief, Muir found the time to mourn the ban on conversion therapy, therefore mourning a Christian therapist’s ability to render the care they believe is appropriate. But at least Muir covered the Court opinion, which is far more than can be said for CBS Evening News and NBC Nightly News.
These other newscasts stuffed their time with stories about handcuffed women jumping out of patrol cars with the windows down, and the Indiana man who stole a beer truck and was arrested for DUI. Had the Court ruled the other way, I’m pretty sure the story would’ve been reported across the aisle had the ruling gone the other way.
The networks also kept quiet about a major hearing on Wednesday, which will be attended in person by President Trump and will center on the 14th Amendment constitutionality of granting automatic U.S. citizenship to the children of illegal aliens, etc. Per NBC News:
The Supreme Court agreed in December to hear the case after lower courts ruled against Trump’s plan to end automatic birthright citizenship for almost anyone born in the U.S.
The 14th Amendment has long been interpreted to protect birthright citizenship, as it states: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.”
The Trump administration is pushing back against the longtime interpretation of that clause.
A reversion of the existing definition of birthright citizenship would help provide further legal justification for additional immigration restrictions, including increased deportations. Given the stakes of the hearing, which President Trump has indicated he will attend in person, it is odd that the network news wouldn’t at least give the story a brief.
But as is often the case with stories such as these, they get buried. It is (D)ifferent, after all.
