Truth Rising with John Stonestreet
The Narrative
Bias in Public Media Funding
This chapter explores the controversy over public funding for NPR and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, questioning their fairness and transparency. It also examines the evolution of children's programming and the impact of biased journalism on public trust in media.
We have reached a "civilizational moment" in the battle for truth. And it's past time for Christians to stand up and speak out.
In this week's episode of The Narrative, CCV Policy Director David Mahan and Communications Director Mike Andrews sit down with John Stonestreet, president of the Colson Center, to talk about the upcoming documentary, Truth Rising.
This powerful project confronts the crisis of truth in today's culture and calls believers to live courageously, rooted in the unchanging Word of God.
Before diving into the conversation with John, the guys break down some of the biggest stories making headlines this week:
📉 Trump announces plans to cut federal funding to PBS, NPR, and other woke media outlets — finally putting an end to taxpayer-funded propaganda.
📺 NBC4’s “Out in Ohio” segment — a blatant push to normalize radical gender ideology in Ohio’s heartland. The guys unpack why local news outlets are no longer neutral and what Christians need to know.
Gather friends and family and watch the release of Truth Rising on Friday, September 5!
