Education to the uneducated (or those who would prefer we remain uneducated in the face of power) can easily cast any education as "biased" against their purposes. Most people see through that for what it is, but an increasing population of Americans don't.

“It is a well known fact that reality has liberal bias.”

This is a really dumb quote.

It started under Bush Jr. And was true in its context then.

I never found it so, as going through "liberal" media I tend to see far fewer lies than I do when I wonder over to the world of mainstream conservative news.

3 months old account, that is totally real, disagrees? Wow okay.

It's a less well-known fact that criminals love chaos and grifters/scammers love the poorly educated.

NOVA regularly acknowledges the existence of climate change.

Some episodes even have the audacity to claim that humans evolved from apes and that the earth is billions of years old!

They don't even acknowledge how Unifying, Lovely, and Respectful the Declaration of Independence which started the Revolutionary War was! Where is their discussion of the Continental Army's take over airports during the War?

It was Yyyuuuuuge!

The republicans are intent on gutting education. Having an electorate fluent in science, the ability to test if statements are true or false, etc., are all in direct opposition to their agenda.

One thing I've noticed is this administration is very online and this is likely a response to conservatives crying that NPR and CPB are biased, which they are to an extent (just listen to the NPR politics podcast for example).

The obvious problem is they are conflating one or two programs with _the entire organization_. I grew up on PBS watching Arthur and Clifford and I'm sure they put out tons of quality content to this day. It's just when Trump thinks of that org he just thinks of the politically biased parts (ie a couple of shows and podcasts that cover Washington politics) and not the massive other parts that provide quality content.

They don't know what bias is or they wouldn't watch Fox News and they don't know anything about the orgs they pile on. For example- I read New Yorker (a liberal "rag" I'm told) yet I've read lovely profiles of Amy Coney Barrett and John Thune.

To these people educational is a synonym for biased. They depend on uneducated people and they have a chip on their shoulder from being between somewhat and extremely dumb themselves.

Please don't make the mistake of thinking they're equally stupid as their voters. Many of them know exactly what they are doing and why.

You must understand, the culture war types are so absurdly radical that BEN SHAPIRO's adult cartoon was considered "woke" because it had a gay character who was the butt of every joke, and that was not harsh enough to satisfy them.

They do not want LGBTQ people to be acknowledged in any way, or be allowed to exist.

They would ban the Golden Girls if they could. They WILL try.

The show is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Birchum

It was produced by DailyWire+, which is a media firm founded by Ben Shapiro.

It only made 6 episodes because the market it shot for, right wing people who hate "woke" rejected it. There is plenty of market for those people consuming what is essentially ragebait and hate content.

They don't seem to want to consume actual media though. Right wing grifters have been trying to target them for a while with "alternative" content, but they don't actually want to enjoy anything. They just want to watch Ben Shapiro tell them that woke is bad, liberals are evil, and "Go woke go broke".

This is the same market that Russia Today was paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to people like Tim Pool to shout at.

Ironically the reception seems to be it could be an average show if it wasn't so intent on yelling about how much it hates "woke". It's brought down by the amount of virtue signalling it does.
