Robert Lloyd writing in the Los Angeles Times: “PBS Chief Executive Paula Kerger and Katherine Maher, who heads NPR, testified before Congress, essentially to bat off charges of liberal bias and to make the case that public broadcasting is a valuable social good, to politicians who don’t necessarily value social goods. It is tragicomical that this hearing — under the name “Anti-American Airwaves: Holding the Heads of NPR and PBS Accountable,” if you need any better indication of a mind already made up — was being led by Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who called PBS and NPR “radical left-wing echo chambers” for what she whimsically imagines to be “a narrow audience of mostly wealthy, white, urban liberals and progressives who generally look down on and judge rural America.” As an inveterate espouser of lunatic conspiracy theories, Greene — who has regularly accused Democratic politicians of murder, pedophilia, and satanism and characterizes public media as “communist” — might fairly be said to occupy a radical right-wing echo chamber. If you live in a fantasy world, facts will always seem a little crazy.” Read more here.
