PBS Frontline 'Completely for Sale'

Viewers have long known that taxpayer-funded PBS Frontline exhibits extreme bias against Republicans like Donald Trump, attempting to smear him and his supporters in documentaries like "Trump's American Carnage." There's a reason why most Americans don't consider the likes of PBS or NPR to be objective.

Worth noting: Apart from illicit payments - explicitly cited by Audette - from certain interviewees, PBS Frontline is officially funded with U.S. taxpayer money through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

In the same video, Audette confirms the chain of command at PBS Frontline: "We show it to the executive producer, Raney and Andrew Metz, the executive editor. Right? Then it becomes their film. Right? And then we're making whatever they want, we do." Also worth noting: Deans and faculty members at Columbia Journalism School - long considered a standard-setter in the field of journalism - have been direct and vocal supporters of PBS Frontline executive producer Raney Aronson-Rath and her outfit, despite Frontline's explicit corruption under Aronson-Rath's leadership.

During Coll's tenure as dean, CJS began a fellowship program with PBS Frontline that Coll, in 2020, described as "One of the crown jewels of post-graduate opportunities in public interest reporting," while also calling Frontline "a beacon for the values Columbia Journalism holds highest." In 2021, Coll reiterated that he is "Proud of the journalism Columbia and Frontline have done together." And, this year, as a CJS faculty member, he appeared as an interviewee in a multi-part Frontline documentary titled "America and the Taliban." The plot thickens.

Ironically, PBS Frontline under Aronson-Rath has explicitly shown its face as outright corrupt, yet there has been no accountability.

PBS Frontline is the poster child for partisan media bias and corruption that continues to commandeer Americans' hard-earned tax dollars.

Let's actively demand full accountability at PBS Frontline and Columbia Journalism School until it is delivered.
