Other factors identified by the White House:

• Then-PBS White House Correspondent Yamiche Alcindor characterized President Trump's patriotic 2020 Mount Rushmore speech as a love letter to "white resentment" that promoted the "myth of America."
• NPR reported on the "cousin of diet culture" known as "healthism, which is the idea that we have to be healthy" — as if that was a bad thing."
• NPR assigned three reporters to investigate how the thumbs-up emoji is racist.
• NPR suggested doorway sizes are based on "latent fatphobia."
• PBS produced an entire movie celebrating a transgender teenager's so-called "changing gender identity."
• NPR absurdly claimed "limited scientific evidence of physical advantage" exists between male and female athletes.
• NPR lamented that "animals deserve pronouns, too."
• In 2023, PBS's Washington Week roundtable covered up Joe Biden's clear mental decline, with far-left "journalist" Jeffrey Goldberg claiming Biden was actually "quite acute."
• NPR dedicated an entire segment to the "population of anthropomorphic animal enthusiasts known as 'furries.'"
• PBS produced a documentary making the case for reparations.
• NPR disparagingly referred to pro-life Americans at the March for Life as "anti-abortion rights activists."

The order also explained how "NPR and PBS have zero tolerance for non-leftist viewpoints."

For instance:

• In 2020, NPR refused to cover the explosive Hunter Biden laptop scandal in the runup to the election, baselessly claiming its "assertions don't amount to much" and writing they "don't want to waste the listeners' and readers' time on stories that are just pure distractions."
• When a 25-year veteran NPR reporter and editor spoke out about the network's obsession with liberal causes, they suspended him. The editor found that registered Democrats outnumbered Republicans 87 to zero in their newsroom.
• NPR prolifically reported on the Russian collusion hoax, with the editor describing "[Adam] Schiff talking points" as "the drumbeat of NPR news reports."
• NPR CEO Katherine Maher once called President Trump "racist," shared a photo of herself wearing a "Biden for President" campaign hat, serves on the board of a Soros-funded activist group, and described "reverence for the truth" as a "distraction."
• In 2023, a study found that congressional Republicans saw 85% negative coverage while congressional Democrats saw 54% positive coverage on PBS's flagship news program."

NPR also repeatedly denied the evidence that COVID-19 originated in a Chinese lab working to make viruses more dangerous, "a conclusion now deemed likely by the FBI, CIA and Department of Energy."

Trump's order states: "At the very least, Americans have the right to expect that if their tax dollars fund public broadcasting at all, they fund only fair, accurate, unbiased, and nonpartisan news coverage. No media outlet has a constitutional right to taxpayer subsidies, and the Government is entitled to determine which categories of activities to subsidize. The CPB's governing statute reflects principles of impartiality: the CPB may not 'contribute to or otherwise support any political party.' 47 U.S.C. 396(f)(3); see also id. 396(e)(2).

"The CPB fails to abide by these principles to the extent it subsidizes NPR and PBS. Which viewpoints NPR and PBS promote does not matter. What does matter is that neither entity presents a fair, accurate, or unbiased portrayal of current events to taxpaying citizens. I therefore instruct the CPB Board of Directors (CPB Board) and all executive departments and agencies (agencies) to cease Federal funding for NPR and PBS."
