![]() I give what I do to KQED because I watch the PBS NewsHour 4 or 5 times a week and 5 or 6 other shows on channels 9 and 54 each week. I have supported KQED to the tune of $20 monthly and an extra $200 in donations this past year. Washington Week has become a propaganda show.Īs KQED is the local part of CPB, I am addressing my comments to you as well. ![]() She has only panelists on the show who agree with her. Robert Costa is no longer at Washington Week or the Washington Post, for that matter.Ĭosta was then replaced by Yamiche Alcindor, who sees virtually every issue in terms of race. After the Mueller report came out, Costa refused to apologize to the audience, even though it was the minimum he needed to do to restore his reputation. Costa would begin each show by breathlessly announcing new breakthroughs in the Russian collusion case. She hated Republicans and made no effort to conceal this. Gwen Ifill brought an “edge” to the show, now renamed as Washington Week. When PBS wanted Bode to bring more “edge” to the show, he refused and was then fired. When Paul Duke left, he was replaced by Ken Bode, who carried on in the Paul Duke tradition. Whatever their personal views, they would try to give honesty analyses about the political news and would sometimes differ among themselves. He had great panelists on, such as David Broder and Peter Lisador. I have been watching Washington Week in Review since the early 1970s when Paul Duke was the moderator.
