You have to listen to it?

I don't think so.  NPR creeps me out.  Literally.  No joke.

I can't quite put my finger on it but I sort of go into a smarmistic trance anytime I accidentally listen to 5 minutes of NPR.  I think it's the inhuman pace (in the actors sense of pace) of the speech plus the effected inflection

Between the pace and inflection, it sounds like "The Stepford News Network"

In any event....I think this characterization would amuse Hugh.

"You have to listen to it?"

Unfortunately my wife enjoys it. She gets angry when they display their "obvious" liberal bias, like stories about how budget cuts will effect welfare recipients, but in other respects thinks that it's a more dignified source of news then you can get on AM radio.

Otherwise, she's a nice lady though. And it doesn't hurt to know what the enemy's thinking.

So Saturday Night Live hit the nail on the head with NPR???

SNL's parody of NPR kills me every time I see it!
