A Voice for the Right Wing

So much for the liberal media…

A number of viewers in Buffalo have pointed out on social media that WKBW WKBW Anchor/Reporter Hannah Buehler seems to make her conservative views known.

The Buffalo News writes that image wasn’t helped during the station’s coverage of Tuesday’s primary when she allowed a conservative politician to give the Republican party spin going into the November governor’s election.

In fairness, I’m not sure if it was Buehler’s call to have Russ Gugino on without a Democrat for balance or if the decision was made above her. But she certainly allowed Gugino to give a four-minute commercial for Republicans.

Before asking Gugino questions, she identified him as a member of the Conservative Party. He may be best known as a former aide to the late Republican Rep. Jack Kemp.

Stations usually try to provide balance on election nights by having representatives of both parties analyze elections, but only Tegna’s WGRZ did that on Tuesday.
