77. I don't think PBS is fair nor 'balanced.'
Jim Lehrer is a right-wing hack. He was despicable as a presidential debate moderator. He despises 'union-types' and liberals and describes them as 'whiners.'

When was the last time you saw the criminality of the Bush administration exposed on PBS/NPR? Never? When have they even questioned the validity of the vote tabulation? Voting goes to the heart of our democracy. PBS/NPR can't be bothered with such nonsense.

While neo-fascist mouthpieces like the Heritage Foundation have always been represented -- hence mainstreamed --, where are the counterparts? Where are the socialist voices. Where are the union voices? Where are the voices of working Americans? Nowhere!

PBS/NPR is a mouthpiece for the corporate state.

Where is their exciting arts programing?

Where is their challenging cultural programing?

PBS/NPR has NOT offered an "other side" to the fascist takeover of this country. When we needed them most, they hired Tucker Carlson, the son of a PBS bigwig. Phooey!
