The only issue I see with not giving them some fed dollars is the Muslims Brotherhood would love to step in and then it really would beome national Palistinian Radio
At least with some fed money there is some control

Defund and be done with it. There is simply no reason that can justify taxpayer funding for NPR (or PBS or Planned Parenthood) and this video proved it. They don’t need the money!

I don’t think we need an excuse. There is no shortage of radio or TV outlets as it is. There is no need for government radio and no need for government TV. PBS and NPR are two expenditures that have no purpose now if they ever did.

Let them sell ad time like everyone else.

Contrary to what the arrogant “intellectual” Ron Schiller bla bla’s at a fancy restaurant....NPR would go the way of Air America Radio in just a few years.......trust me the libs will have to fight hard for this.

“Not only have top public broadcasting executives finally admitted that they do not need taxpayer dollars to survive, it is also clear that without federal funds, public broadcasting stations self-admittedly would become eligible for more private dollars on top of the multi-million dollar donations these organizations already receive.

If that is the case then don't defund NPR. Allocate NPR $1 per year to prevent them from getting more private funding.

If we can't get NPR defunded after this outrage, then we really are wasting time trying to save the Republic.

So, how much anyone want to bet that after the dust settles, NPR remains on a parasite on the Federal dole? Sigh.

Wasn't it an NPR personality who said she would perform a Lewinsky on Bill Clinton if Bill would keep abortion illegal.

Looked it up. Yep. Nina Burleigh.

From the comments at the link.

most people with a brain KNOW that the baggers are radical wack jobs who have a serious racism problem.

This guy left out the "white trash" label most of his type at the NY Times are using today. But the point is the same one they all make. Every single one of them Tea Baggers are racist. The irony of declaring a large group of diverse people bigots, and in the process demonstrating your own rank bigotry, never seems to occur to these people.

Laura Ingraham reported today that our tax dollars are paying the top dog at NPR a $600,000 salary!

Support James O’Keefe.

Project Veritas Investigates:

NPR
Mar 8 2011

Project Veritas’ latest investigation focuses on the publically-funded media organization, National Public Radio. PV investigative reporters, Shaughn Adeleye and Simon Templar posed as members of the Muslim Action Education Center, a non-existent group with a goal to “spread the acceptance of Sharia across the world.”

In this first video, produced by James O’Keefe, Shaughn and Simon sit down with NPR Foundation President Ron Schiller.
