sandbox is kitty litter
Republican Congresses had several opportunities to shut down NPR.
So much for “courage.”
I remember their breathless rumor-mongering during Iran-Contra and then their refusal to cover Clinton’s scandals.
National PINKO Radio
National Panhandler Radio, the Communist mouthpiece that brings us Morning Sedition.
and clearly satirical comedy also

There are plenty of rich White Liberals who can keep their NPR by funding it themselves. Pull all government money, big mistake that the GOP has not done this. It’s a no brainer 1st day in office decision.
I used to listen to NPR, broke a few radios doibg it, but about 20 years ago it went all gay all the time. I mean every damn story! That broke me.
Not sure how “Liberal” NPR is. They are definitely Leftist though.
But now they are liberal fascists and supporters of the police state.
I just love how NPR claims to be listener supported but the minute Congress even has a thought about cutting funding the screaming starts.
I could go on and on about them, but one point really comes to mind. They are very New York centric, not just North East but New York City. They don’t really understand the rest of the country. Two or three years ago there was the story of the young girl who crossed the New Mexico with a large group of other illegals got sick and died while/after being helicoptered to El Paso. The on the ground reporter did a reasonable job of describing how remote the area she crossed the border was, but the host talking to him simply could not understand the concept. He had no clue about something without a bus stop every 2 blocks. When Cokie Roberts passed away they noted she covered 3 Mile Island for them because almost no one else in office new how to drive a car.
The only thing good to ever come from NPR was Car Talk. When the show stopped airing after one of the brothers died, I stopped tuning in and listen to the Car Talk podcasts.
NPR has long out lived its purpose.
And WE still are paying them. One thing PDJT promised to un-fund was NPR.
I tried to listen to NPR a couple of times and thought that all the leftism would anger me. It didn’t. It bored me so much that I felt that I might fall asleep at the wheel and I wasn’t even tired.
Their attitude toward defunding is “go ahead and yank our government money. We don’t need your stinking cash. It’s only 30% of our funding anyway.” But when it looks like common sense will rule and the taxpayers will finally be out of the NPR scam they scream like stuck pigs. They keep their filthy lucre. Rinse and repeat every year.
And believe me, Freepers, you don’t want to be living in one of these NPR-loving parts of the country:
