DOGE Subcommittee Chair Majorie Taylor Greene is calling on the Chief Executive Officers of PBS and NPR to testify at a hearing concerning the "systemically biased news coverage produced on behalf of federally funded radio and TV stations."
Greene argues that PBS and NPR "have repeatedly undermined public trust by ignoring stories that were damaging to the Biden Administration, dismissing genuine calls for balanced reporting, and pushing partisan coverage."
The letter to Paula Kerger, President and CEO of PBS, called out PBS's "blatantly ideological and partisan coverage" and specifically calls out PBS for implying that Elon Musk made a "fascist salute" at Trump's inauguration.
The letter to Katherine Maher, CEO and President of NPR, cited the fact that NPR declined to report on the Hunter Biden laptop. It also called out Maher for being dismissive of criticism calling on NPR to make its reporting more fair and balanced instead of putting out repeated stories about supposed racism, transphobia, climate change, Israel behaving badly, and the "dire threat of Republican policies."
"As stewards of tax dollars, NPR and PBS must provide objective and accurate coverage that serves all Americans," the Subcommittee wrote, calling on both women to testify at a hearing, either during the week of March 3rd or the week of March 24th.
Maher has been described as so "cringe-inducingly woke that she almost reads like an intentionally cruel parody of wokeness" by National Review's Jeffrey Blehar.
How woke is the 41-year-old Maher?
Well, Christopher Rufo summed up her wokeness like this:
What you notice first about Maher’s public speech are the buzzwords and phrases: “structural privilege,” “epistemic emergency,” “transit justice,” “non-binary people,” “late-stage capitalism,” “cis white mobility privilege,” “the politics of representation,” “folx.” She supported Black Lives Matter from its earliest days. She compares driving cars with smoking cigarettes. She is very concerned about “toxic masculinity.”
Perhaps the Connecticut upbringing contributed to her wokeness?
By the way, Maher's resume reads like a globalists' wet dream.
First job in 2004?
An internship with the Council on Foreign Relations. She's currently a term member for CFR, and has been ever since 2020.
She worked at UNICEF for almost three years.
Then she went onto the National Democratic Institute (NDI) which is related to the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). NED's cofounder once told the Washington Post that a lot of what NED does used to fall into the domain of the CIA. That's especially interesting when you consider that Maher also serves as Board Chair for Signal Messenger, another company rumored to have CIA ties.
Maher lists a number of short stints on her resume, including The World Bank, Access Now, Frame (interactive, multimedia news), as a lecturer at Stanford University's McCoy Family Center for Ethics in Society, and as a member of the Foreign Affairs Policy Board at the State Department.
The longest role Maher ever held was at Wikimedia, where she spent two years as Chief Communications Officer, and a little over five years as CEO.
In addition to leading NPR for the last year, Katherine is also part of the Truman National Security Project, a think tank funded by liberals like Rockefeller Brothers, and she's a Senior Fellow for the Atlantic Council.
She's also a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader, rounding out her globalist credentials.
Plus, she sits on the Board for System Inc, which is described as a "Public Benefit Corporation" that wants to use AI to connect all of the world's knowledge to transform how we make decisions, govern, and allocate resources across all major areas of society, from health to climate, the economy to security. Nothing to worry about with AI transforming our world, right?
And she sits on the Board of Adventure Scientists, a company focused on collecting data that "accelerates conservation and climate solutions."
Her father, Gordon Roberts Maher, worked in finance in New York City, and died in 2020. Oddly, his funeral announcement suggested Katherine's grandfather, "may or may not have been a postwar spy."
Her mother, Ceci Maher, is serving in her second term in the State Senate, and promoting controversial legislation to keep pornography in children's libraries and to allow librarians to sue parents who complain about sexually explicit content aimed at children.
It's hard to imagine how a person like Katherine Maher, who graduated from the Arabic Language Institute's Intensive Arabic Program at The American University of Cairo in 2003 and earned a bachelor's degree from New York University in 2005, rose to the role of CEO at Wikipedia after just 10 years of work experience, spread across five different organizations, and without having held a senior leadership role at any of said organizations.
Was that just incredible luck? Innate talent? Happened to be in the right place at the right time?
Her testimony in March ought to be interesting.
