In these economic times, why are we subsidizing National Radio OR Public Television. People now have plenty of choices - we should not be forced to subsidize these substandard stations in the first place. If you can’t compete in the real world, get off the stage.
Gee I bet Bill Moyers type programming is toast too! < /sarcasm>
So, we won’t be hearing from CAIR on NPR?
Good. I shudder to think what an NPR station will say about Christ.
There'd be no content left at NPR affiliates.
BTW, the use of the term "sectarian" is an ineffective attempt to get around the limitation on government that it be strictly neutral regarding religion.
It is supposed, wrongly, by the Leftwingtards that ALL religion is "sectarian", with Catholics neatly over here, and Presbyterians neatly over there, and the Episcopaleans stuck over yonder. In the real world, there are no really effective sectarian boundaries, just "branding", and when it comes to Christianity and Buddhism, that doesn't even begin to round up the faithful and keep them on the straight and narrow.
Time for complaints to NPR concerning sectarian deviationism, and to your local Congresscritter (Leftwingtard or not) complaining about how (pick your religion) has taken over the local station and attempting to "force"(not foist) their beliefs down our throat.
A few thousand such complaints over a year should be sufficient.
The solution is to abolish federal funding for npr and pbs.
they already have abc cbs cnn and nbc and the press to push their communism and climate change.
So much for tolerance.
I suppose this follows the president saying we aren’t a Christian nation. He’s right, of course - we’re an anti-Christian nation now.
It’s not NPR...It’s NGR...
Good. Maybe they'll go back to playing classical music (which they do well) and travel/informational programs (which they also do well).
Bottom line is that we need to start holding them to that policy: as painful as it might be, we should start listening and then start throwing this policy in their faces the INSTANT a member station airs something that even approaches politics.

It’s we Christians that they are after.
NPR is PCP (Party Contolled Propaganda).
>>>Silencing Christians
Not hardly. It’s available up and down the dial. As far as I can tell there are more Christian stations, at least on AM, then anything but sports. And FM is less saturated but still well represented.
Getting it off NPR is for the best. Unless you want NPR Christian broadcasts thrown at you by those wishing to force Islamic prayer, wiccan, or similar alternative broadcasts on the same govt subsidized stations, under “fairness” arguments.
NPR? Isn’t that the station where you have to have an accent to be on?
Say goodbye to Prairie Home Companion, also known as Democrats Home Companion.
Not unexpected. By the middle of this century (2050, maybe sooner)Christians will be limited to expressing their views only in churches. The number of Christians are expected to fall below twenty percent of the population; and those who remain will face strict “hate” crime legislation.
See...pointing out sin...will be “hate”.
I have several names for NPR - National People’s Radio or National Politburo Radio. I listened to them recently one time and hearing the things discussed, it reeked of East Coast elitism.
