Balancing Biases

Howard Rosenberg’s lengthy apologetic “ ‘P.O.V.’ Answers Criticism From Conservatives,” (Calendar, Oct. 25) eloquently illustrates how politically biased The Times’ coverage of public television has become. If the left needs a champion to defend it against “Criticism From Conservatives,” The Times’ TV critic is there to provide it. But no such champion appears on behalf of the other side of the spectrum.

Rosenberg’s response, in other words, is just another contribution to his ongoing defense and promotion of the left-wing fare of public television. Of course, as a columnist, he is under no obligation to interview executive producer Marc Weiss’ critics, but what about The Times itself?
