How? As we know, NPR is funded by viewers like you, and by our corporate sponsors
Don’t forget, an important component of dictatorships is controlling the media
Trump can simply encourage violence against their employees and make them untenable in other ways. Like bring them to court at one of his bribed justices to cost them money
There’s lots of ways to kill a company in a way that isn’t obvious when you’re a dictator
Just remember, Mafia bosses won’t tell you they’ll injure you. They use coercion and subtle threats
NPR has an obvious liberal bias. Ive listened for over 20 years and it is the truth. It is what it is.
I’ve listened for over 21 years and they have an obvious bias against unsubstantiated claims.
If one party says 2+2=5 then are math teachers making a political statement by saying otherwise?
NPR has remained exactly where it was, politically, for decades.
It’s the world you’re noticing that has moved significantly further to the right.
Unfortunately, reality has a liberal bias these days
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.
Next they’ll try to ban it.
They got that fancy new law to kill non-profits that I’m sure would be useful.
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.

Good choice!

Yeah, I know. But it was my stooge.
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.
But they have a lesbian and a brown person talking on the microphone, they’re so lefty look at them!
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
More fund drives.
damn this is uncool
