Guess it’s a good thing that NPR barely gets any funding from the federal or state governments then. All this does is get people to donate more to PBS and NPR.
This bullshit just got me to donate $25. Thanks for reminding me you crazy fucking cunt
Morons. They think ‘defund’ means ‘get rid of’ because they themselves can’t exist without grift and bailouts.
I just cancelled my New York Times subscription and I’ll be sending that money to NPR now. The grey lady has become a corporate stooge anyway.

NPR will probably respond to this by hiring 50 republicans and still get defunded
Didn’t Nice Polite Republicans already do that?
I stopped listening to them back when they brought an insurance executive on to talk about how great health insurance is at “providing healthcare”, but they just need more money.
They’re nearly as bad as NYT when it comes to pretending to be the left, but only platforming the center and right.
My friend, this is unfortunately the reality of all “left” press of any high volume.
We have the Guardian in the UK which is regarded as the lefty paper by many people here, but if you look at the modern editorial slant, particularly around political coverage and you’ll find it’s very much a centrist paper and occasionally a bit centre-right. They get the odd left-winger in for opinion pieces from time to time to keep up the charade, but you can tell if the LibDems had a chance in hell of being elected, the paper would drop all support for Labour in a heartbeat.
Actual left wing press at any large scale is not permitted to exist by the billionaire classes. If one gets too big, it’ll be acquired and the slant will shift before long. Class consciousness is bad for business
