This Is PBS: Renee Good ‘Killed,’ Murdered National Guard Member Merely Shot
24th January 2026
Intentionally or not, the PBS News Hour exhibited a liberal double standard in descriptions in a story by Liz Landers from Minneapolis, where residents are apparently being persecuted under ICE.
A long 13-minute Thursday segment, which was capped with two guests, one from the Trump administration and one from the Obama administration, twice underlined that anti-ICE protester Renee Good was killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, but the November murder of another federal law officer in Washington, D.C. was downgraded to a mere “shooting.”
The story did lead with a strong statement from Vice President J.D. Vance from on the ground in Minneapolis.
