Behold tax-funded PBS’s idea of balanced election coverage: A “Republican” campaign strategist who endorsed the Democrat was interviewed on Tuesday night’s show, and a die-hard Democratic partisan strategist on Wednesday night. That hardly fulfills the “strict adherence to objectivity and balance” mandated by Congress when it created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting in 1967.
Former John McCain campaign strategist Murphy had already signed a letter endorsing Harris over Trump, yet somehow appeared as a “Republican strategist” on tax-supported PBS, which didn’t mention his endorsement of the Democrat while going through what Harris had to do to beat Republican Trump. The next night, partisan Democratic strategist and fully committed Harris supporter James Carville did the same thing. Some balance!
