CBS Nudges Ken Burns Into Preposterous Claim PBS Isn't Leftist, It Has 'Firing Line'

PBS partisans treat Ken Burns as if he was one of America’s finest treasures. In reality, he should be nobody’s idea of a nonpartisan historical filmmaker. He’s a fervent liberal Democrat. When Donald Trump first won in 2016, Burns admitted “I too needed some time in the fetal position, covers pulled up to my chin.” He represents the liberal bubble at PBS. In 2024, according to Open Secrets, he donated $18,400 to the Democratic National Committee, $10,000 to the Democratic Party of Montana, and the maximum federal donation of $3,300 to Kamala Harris, Sen Jon Tester (D-Montana), Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), and the congressional campaign of CNN analyst John Avlon in New York.
