PBS News Hour White House correspondent Laura Barron-Lopez, whose reporting down the homestretch of the 2024 presidential election has so far been wretchedly partisan, was at it again on Friday’s edition, painting a potential second Trump Administration as a threat to the lives of transgenders, and even chiding the Biden Administration for suggesting transgender surgery on minors should be limited.
She engaged in a 100% sympathetic interview – no actual journalism committed – of Leigh Finke, a biological male “transwoman” elected to the Minnesota legislature in 2022 and executive director of something called the Queer Equity Institute.
It’s no surprise PBS would lean toward the “gender identity” side, given its recent history of coverage, wholly ignoring that the legislation under which the Public Broadcasting Service operates requires balance when covering controversial news stories.
