Trump’s malignant narcissism has metastasized.

What do you think it did and what impact do you think it had that bringing it back would help fix today’s media problems?

Bring back thinking people who actually know the subjects of which they speak.

Founders wrote in the 3 branches of Government! The Supreme Court is Corrupted! Overturned Centuries of Settled Law! Giving a Corrupt Man more Power to Destroy all agencies! Why even have Congress? 13 Justices for 13 Courts! Or we are Russia West! 10 men decide all fate! Unsustainable destruction!

Like BBC, as they give it to the people straight up. LET'S KEEP EPSTEIN FILES OPEN

Listen to Tim Dillon, Tucker Carlson and WarMode that is what news is supposed to be

And that is why the Republican party defunded PBS.

More thoughtful and courteous delivering propaganda?

👍

October, 1985. Robert MacNeil and Jim Lehrer celebrate A Decade of Journalistic Excellence. We could never watch anything else...

Hahahahahaha very funny

Real journalism still exists.

Yes. I recorded today and for tomorrow, due to the Supreme Court decisions today, and planned for tomorrow. I love Rachel, but today I just got tired of her hype, and tuned into the sober, quiet Monday Newshour.

PBS is one of the last sources of accurate and unbiased reporting but they are suffering from lack of funding since they lost federal dollars thanks to Trump. If you can contribute to NPR, even $5, please do so.

Me too! 🎉

Love their news and also Democracy Now on PBS.

I know right?!?!☹️

Even PBS and NPR are guilty of "both-siding" the news. As if there are two sides to facts.

Superb. Watched a lot during the 2024 election time.

Al Jazeera English has become my initial evening news of choice.

That's why AETN in Arkansas isn't going to carry it anymore. I'll have to stream it elsewhere.

PBS News Hour still exists? I thought all that was defunded?

I used to watch him all the time. But I believe the model Rachel Maddow uses. Where she brings in a highly expert person to discuss an issue is really good. It's more like what the BBC does. She went to Oxford so she had time to watch BBC. The group discussion thing with a liar is a joke.

Yes. I remember. I believe the 12 to 14 hour news channels made the endless stream of talking heads a necessity to fill the time.

Lol, that wasn’t how it worked.

Too true in your country George. We’ve lots here as well. Not a coincidence.

I still miss Gwen.

Check out CBC…the National would be a good place to start. Many of the BBC programs are very good too…Publicly funded broadcasting is not “State TV”. Most western democracies have independent broadcasters (Australia, Ireland, Japan, etc)that often keep governments in check. That is healthy.

Breakfast with my local public radio station every morning. They ALL need donations now... www.ijpr.org

Sometimes I fall asleep because no one is yelling.

Every time I watch PBS in general I'm reminded of what a treasure public broadcasting is and why it should be protected. On the flip side when I watch Discovery or History Channels I'm reminded of how much junk, conspiracy theory programming is passed off as history or edutainment.

I truly believe we could do a great deed for this country if we organized an all-out boycott assault campaign starting with Fox News. Loud, vocal, endless harassment of a campaign against them. We the people need to take control of this situation and shut down all these effing lies.

Right - i feel same with bbc , canadian news, news from korea/ philippines…. Ol fashion journalism. Just the facts. News. Our news is corrupted by billionaires all milking Trump (and us) now we know what the ppl of Hungry went through.

Amen.

Fact-based and congenial for 50 years

Guy wrote endless op-eds trashing millennials, ended up marrying a millennial. A deeply unserious, disturbing man.

What pisses me off is that the PBS NewsHours Geoff Bennett did not push back. As a professional & respected moderator he had every right to look David Brooks in the eye & say "would Americans take what you just said & reply Harlan Crow brided a Supreme Court justice illegally? Missed opportunity

Always to far. He is insufferable.

He’s the kitty litter coating a piece of kitty poop

Brooks was the original back to the turn of the Millennium back when it Brooks & Shields.

💯

Donate to keep them funded.

It's the only domestic news broadcast I watch.

Same.

Every time I watch ABC’s David Muir, I”m instantly reminded what one shouldn’t be. They allocate all of one half-hour for “World News” and offer “leads-if-it-bleeds” tabloid journalism blasted out by a carnival barker.

This is why I give them money every month

Our house only watches PBS news.

Absolutely! It’s calm, thought provoking and holds leaders accountable.

I’ve been rewatching “The Newsroom”. Brutal and still super appropriate 10 years later!!!!

very true.

I never miss it! @pbsnews.org

Walter Cronkite, “And that’s the way it is.” He is the standard in news broadcasting.

Propaganda

YES!! And also the BBC, Al-Jazeera. And Democracy Now!!

Same. I can’t watch anything else for real news

I miss the weekend edition. Combover Caligula’s funding cuts suck.

I donate to PBS every month. Money very well spent!

IKR.

Exactly.

Yes quite refreshing in the land of the #MadHatters 🤠

They are consistently rated as the most truthful. It's true, they are very informative and there isn't hyperbole. It's quite nice.

#yup And listen to NPR #yup

Or most outlets which aren’t American.

I’m a fan of MSNOW as well.

I disagree

I feel like we've gone back in time where there were only three channels...but now it's NPR and Al Jazeera

Only news that should be watched ✌🏽✌🏼✌🏿✌🏾✌🏻✌️

I watch @aljazeera.com

Too bad they acted as Trump's stenographer & repeated Trump's lie about the vandalism at the reflecting pool like the rest of the media 😞

Unfortunately, it's Trump front-to-back, top-to-bottom these days.

I've stopped reading all American news sources for American news -- except for the AP, for now at least. Corporate capture of newsrooms has become far too obvious and you can smell the conservative spin. AP, The Guardian, and BBC are about it for hard news. I still love NPR and PBS cultural stuff.

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try watching the CBC.

It’s crazy how nostalgic it feels

Avoid CBS CNN FOX to protect your mind, spirit and soul. Don’t give them a second of your time. They pollute, poison and undermine free speech.

Watch a BBC interview. They ask follow up questions. They push for straight answers. They’re prepared. Newshour IS very good but once you see the pros you realize what we’ve lost or never had.

Al Jazeera is really going to blow your hair back then

they carry plenty of water for the regime and that new blonde WH lady is god awful

Same. It gives me hope that not all is lost here in America. But that same dedication to journalism and facts put a target on them. They need to be supported. With money!! Even a small donation helps if enough people do it. I promise it’s money well spent even if it didn’t feel like it right now

Brooks and Capehart is my favorite segment of PBS news. Brooks brings a conservative argument stripped of the Trump lies and acknowledging the Trump malfeasance. I very much like hearing his counter arguments, David Brooks does a fine Job in my book.

I’ve started watching for that very reason 👍🏼

They’re not above reproach, they’ve toned their criticism of the Trump regime way down in the past year…very disappointing!

I actually think NPR and PBS are too passive! They interview Republicans and give them way too much respect and deference. They don’t even ask hard questions or interrupt their lies with fact checks! What are they afraid of— Republicans will vote to defund them?🤷‍♂️🚩🚩🚩

……I frickin’ record it and watch it the next morning if I don’t happen to be home! 👍🏻

Yes! Absolutely.

And then shed a tear Or pour a scotch Or both

They actually cover the news not just what has been videotaped.

Truth and facts No opinions

It's no wonder the MAGAt criminals have worked to destroy PBS and NPR.

Journalism rather than journalistas. Some TV hosts ought to watch, listen and learn.

Now is the time to call lies lies.

We say same ! Also BBC and of course independent media!

I stopped watching news. Perhaps I should start watching PBS

Faux News is MAGA entertainment channel, should not be mentioned in a discussion about news. They have admitted that. They should be sued to change their name

Also donate to PBS if possible.

Ditto. I watch every night and have for years.

The ONLY one I watch bc they are UNbiased and impartial and HONEST above all else with NO ONE to answer to and little to NO commentary. Just the FACTS and only the FACTS. That is why REPUKES want to get rid of #PBS.

I get the same reminder every time I watch Fox... just not for the same reasons.

👍👍

Yeah.

I just said this yesterday to my wife

Try Al-Jazeera English or BBC.

Except for interviews, which are milquetoast affairs like all the others. Journalists simply don’t ask hard questions or push back on non-answers.

Washington Week as well on Friday nights, wish it was 1 hour long.

I so miss his parodies.

Also, All Hail Legal AF

100%.

So it is really boring. I can listen to NPR. But I don't do well with PBS. I can watch to Canadian and BBC pretty well.

Indeed. in the day we watched macneil lehrer every night. Even 1970's dope smokin teens loved PBS news. We watched CBS news then too. That ship sailed it seems.

One of the reasons that it was defunded by trump.

Hear! Hear!

WISH GWEN IFILL WERE STILL AROUND!!! SHE WAS THE GREATEST. INTEGRITY, MORALITY AND GREAT HUMOR!!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

They’ll fuck that up 2
