I used to watch Frontline, it was a good program. But then they went full-on "woke," and it's never been the same. Fact reporting gone, now it's all equity nonsense. Hopefully the election story doesn't tread this tired path.

That strikes me as a completely vague response. Much, maybe most, of the world seems to agree that the problem of inequality poisons just about everything, and to use that as an excuse to avoid great documentaries about, say, the history of the oil business, which was a recent show, or Jeff Bezos, or China, does not seem like a smart move. I'm not aware of any major pushback to Frontline about their facts, and I always note that on political matters, they try to interview people from both sides.

“problem of inequality” /= equity, especially as used by far left regressives. And look at the topics Frontline covers. It’s mostly anti-right, and a decidedly anti-police slant. Further, look at the important stories they are ignoring. Skyrocketing crime in America’s cities, not a word. Out-of-control inflation, nothing. In states that loosened their drug laws, the fentanyl deaths are shocking. Not a word from Frontline.

Here’s a big one: huge amounts of dark money flowing mostly to Democrats. You know, Frontline has done several shows on the corrupting influence of money on our politics. But since the left now wears the crown for enormous sums of untraceable dark money, it’s radio silence from Frontline. If the Republicans amassed $1 billion in dark money flows for an election (as the Democrats did), Frontline would be all over it.

The blatant bias is visible, palpable. To deny it is to deny reality.

Poor righties. Always such victims.
