UPDATE THURSDAY 4/9 NPR Drumbeat for UN Hegenomy Gets Frantic

One day after the dawning of Iraqi freedom- NPR continues it's relentless campaign to put the worst possible light on events from the front. The moment, which encapsulated the truth that Iraqis were receiving the US coalition troops as liberators rather than conquerors, was the pulling down of one of the giant statues of Saddam and dragging the head through the streets of Bagdad. NPR managed to present even this epic event with as negative a spin as possible- through the audio-taped perspective of an Iraqi woman who had lost two relatives to US bombing- narrating her sadness at seeing soldiers putting an American flag over the face of the statue- lamenting that this was something that should have been done by the Iraqi people- not by the Americans. The segment never mentioned that the flag was immediatly replaced by the pre-Saddam flag of Iraq. The rest of the programming was ridden with interviews and opinings pressing foreward the notion that the UN along with countries that had ratted out of the coalition should have central roles in the reconstruction of Iraq's infrastructure and political rehabilitation plus dire warnings ad infinitum that the US must not act as conquerors- as if the coalition were utterly unaware of this sensitive issue.

Does NPR rely on tax dollars. If so...it is TIME to start a campaign with our congress critters to STOP THIS INSULT. I refuse to pay for this propaganda and am TIRED of this type of reporting. It sickens me.

[jjm2111]

Where oh where can I get that??? I want one!

[Uncle George]

Our tax money HAS TO STOP FUNDING THE LEFT WING LIB N.P.R.!!! There must be a way to prevent Washington from funding this COMMIE BROADCASTING MEDIA. Their one sided lib bias is so obvious it is sickening.

OK- the word is "hegemony" and it still means anti-American

[Gopher Broke]

We all need to email Bush and our elected US Reps/Senators and tell them NO AXIS OF WEASELS or UN involvement in rebuilding IRAQ!!

[Im Your Huckleberry]

The Left is completely wigging out! Buy Pfizer! Prozac sales are going to go through the roof...

[Im Your Huckleberry]

Correction, make that buy Eli Lilly!

[Republic]

The pictures of the Iraqis weeping with joy, kissing our American flag, kissing pictures of President Bush while showing the souls of their shoes by smacking likenesses of Saddam in the face with the same, are EXACTLY what our nation needs to hear right now. Presenting a heavy negative side is wrong, it is a misuse of information, and corrupt. Sure-the downside of war needs to always be present, but the overwhelming UP side of our drive to liberate Iraq should be there, too. I am furious.

NPR is just glad the Iraq War is drawing to a close. They're desperate to start their Spring Fundraising Drive! 8^)

No matter how loudly NPR bangs its drums, they're never going to reach one more person. That's the great thing about radio, noise level alone doesn't make the receiver retune its dial.

[KriegerGeist]

NPR just like the U.N. are both drains on our society and the taxpayer's wallet.

It would be great to disolve both...get us out of the U.N. and get the U.N out of the U.S. and pull taxpayer fundiing from NPR. If it is in fact and deed National "Public" Radio, then rely solely on contributors and financial supporters.

Pfizer and Lilly. Hmm, intriguing prospect.

What DOES happen when you take Prozac and Viagra together?

[RANGERAIRBORNE]

Does anyone BUT committed Leftists listen to NPR "news" anymore? I can swear that I have not turned to NPR since the start of the war- I just knew that they would have nothing useful to say about it.

They should probably stick to playing classical music and putting on the occasional Shakespeare festival. Seriously, they were supposed to fill a "gap" in our culture- and I don't see any shortage of outlets for political views- no "gap" there.

[reelfoot]

You're exactly right. Defund and withdraw from the UN and defund NPR, now.

[Conspiracy Guy]

NPR (National Propergander Radio). PRI (Propergander Radio International). Most local stations are in the late phase of their donation drive. Tune em in, call em up, cuss em out, hang em up. Tune em in, call em up, Rawhide.

I listen for DNC counter-intelligence and classical music purposes only. NPR broadcasts that a liberal would never consider saying in "public" because they consider it a "safe forum".
