An NPR radio station was what got me into classical music and I’ve been listening to it ever since. I wrote them a nice little letter today explaining my history with them, why I’ll never listen to them again, and why they won’t be seeing a dime from me.

Not that I ever donated in the first place, mind you. I was never THAT far gone.

I say de-fund NPR. Then they can hire or fire whomever they would like to.

D-e-f-u-n-d NPR. This should have been done years ago. We were calling for it during the Bush era.
Why should tax payers pay for a 24/7 pro-extreme leftist infomercial? Let them earn their own keep.

The GOP controlled House should make sure NPR and PBS are defunded on Jan 2, 2011.

“. . .We get credit and, in this case, blame for NPR’s decisions. Many listeners don’t understand the distinction between the member station (WBUR) and the network (NPR).”

The best way to attack a national broadcaster is to go after its local affiliates. You attack the local affiliate by complaining to its sponsors.

You know it's bad when Bob Beckell condemns NPR and says he won't be contributing to them this year...

good thing they got the Soros money - looks like they're gonna need it.

This should all put a chill on any other attacks to get rid of people on FOX - per orders from Soros - the blow back is great!
