PBS Displays Political Double Standards: Hateful Loomer vs. Gaza’s ‘Mister Rogers’

The PBS News Hour on Wednesday unwittingly showed off ideological double standards in three separate segments: a hostile profile of controversial Republican activist Laura Loomer, a gushfest with controversial pro-Palestinian activist and kid-vid host “Ms. Rachel,” and a celebration of a kinder, gentler form of racial segregation in an arts community in Maine for “Black and brown artists” only.

Co-host Amna Nawaz was loaded for bear from the start of the Loomer profile, conducted by reporter Stephanie Sy.
