    ... (free) on FM (Radio Dial). So it has that going for it.'

    A: Yes , even if there is a 'bias' to NPR somehow , in general , they *seem*
    ... to *allow* controversy (differing viewpoints) to be stated.

    ... Also , *not* surprising that NPR wants to *retain* the USA Gov. Funding

    ... that they currently have it ... Personally , *not* seeing NPR (Radio)

    ... as some *enormous* 'rip off' of USA Tax Money Spending.


    doesitneedsaying --> 'But using NPR (Radio) and high-quality journalism

    ... in the same sentence is hilarious.'

    A: Fair enough , see it as you choose.

    NPR is government-funded media, and always has been. They clearly hate it when anyone tells the truth about them. ¬‿¬

    influencewatch.org/non-profit/national-public-radio-npr

    NPR Criticisms + Controversies List = Make of it what YOU will.


    IF it is *not* FOX NEWS (Murdoch) , then it is BIAS ??? ... :wink:

    NPR seems hardly a 'brainwashing' entity to me ...

    But others can surely see it differently than me.


    JOAN KROC (McDonalds Hamburgers) , upon her death (Year 2003) ...

    Donated $200 MILLION USD to NPR = Because she liked NPR ...

    NPR seems hardly 'liberal evil' in programming that they do it ...


    ELON MUSK seems increasingly as friend of TYRANT nations lately ...
    But , others can see that differently about MUSK too ...

    MUSK maybe should purchase a share of GETTR (Social Network)

    from MILES GUO (residing in NYC JAIL just now) ??? ... :wink:

    MUSK *owns* TWITTER , so surely can be as *RULING TYRANT* there.

    NPR's editorial stance never, ever deviates from the Democratic Party's current policy positions - and they take government money to promote those positions. If anything, Musk's label is too mild.

    Exactly its no mystery. The programs are like Sleep meditation. So laid back and mellow can't help to doze off. Half the time don't understand what their rambling on about. Like getting a Head lock into someone's sweaty armpit. XD

    Oh yes they have donations, not sure of the percentage. Trying to cut NPR's budget in Government. They cry bloody murder, NPR is addicted to public funding.

    Anyrate in some areas NPR is the only radio station one can hear on FM. So it has that going for it.

    Not gonna lie even if NPR and RFE/RL are both US government funded there is a charm to the pseudo-unbiased type reporting that it creates.


    I dunno I like the charm of "government flavor" things sometimes when some private but more prestigious reporting outlets start to show lean despite their attempts to stay center. Even if "government flavor" has government bias.


    Edit: government flavor engineering is actually my most favorite of government flavors, btw.
