"PBS news is not just left leaning, but is actively uses taxpayer funds to push some of the most radical left positions," Greene said in her opening statement. "Like featuring a drag queen on the show 'Let's Learn,' a show targeted toward young children ages 3 to 8 years old."
Kerger, the PBS CEO, later responded to Greene's assertion, saying that the drag-queen "was not actually on any of our kids' shows."
"It was mistakenly put on the website of our New York City station," she said. "It was immediately pulled down. It was never broadcast."
Greene echoed other Republicans on the committee, saying "For far too long, federal taxpayers have been forced to fund biased news. This needs to come to an end and it needs to come to an end now," she said.
No surprise what-so-ever that MTG started the hearing with a lie.And the perceived bias the right has about public broadcasting? ...I can certainly see how the current crop of conservatives view anything factual/truthful as having a liberal bias.

And who's going to implement that? Certainly neither of the current major political parties.
