Not enough. Seize their broadcast channels and put them up for auction.

NPR doesn't own any broadcast channels. Their outlets are all independent stations, most owned by colleges and universities, that pay NPR for their programming. And NPR itself receives very little money directly from the government. The money goes to those local stations, who then use it to pay NPR. So exactly what do you plan to have the government expropriate here?
