"The White House and some Republicans in Congress have accused NPR of promoting a liberal bias. How do you respond?" NPR CEO Katherine Maher: "We're a nonpartisan news organization. We do not seek to favor any political party at all." Does anyone actually believe this???

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting which is comprised of the National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) are budgeted to receive $535 million from the federal government for FY2025. The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has recommended this funding be cut. Paula Kerger, CEO, of PBS and Katherine Maher, CEO of NPR appeared at the House of Representatives DOGE subcommittee to testify against budget cuts. Subcommittee Chair Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga) said "folks in my district listen to podcasts and internet based news. At the same time, NPR and PBS have increasingly become radical, left-wing echo...

President Trump has repeated his call to defund PBS (Public Broadcasting Service) and NPR (National Public Radio). Under the First Amendment, PBS and NPR certainly have the right to free expression, but must the American taxpayers be forced to fund them? From a Christian and conservative perspective, they are heavily biased broadcasters.

"Katherine Maher, head of NPR. And, you know, she said we're completely unbiased. Give me a break, lady. I mean, they're crazy far left."“ And we're so polarized. These outlets became popular at a time when Republicans and Democrats didn't hate each other and weren't at each other's throats and didn't think each other was an existential threat. In that world, you can't have places like this, I think, anymore. They have to be private,” Maher added.

"Real Time" host Bill Maher argued in favor of pulling federal funding from NPR, insisting it has to go private in the age of hyper-partisan politics. During his online "Overtime" segment, Maher read a viewer question asking the panel to react to the testimony of NPR CEO Katherine Maher (no relation) and PBS CEO Paula Kerger, who defended their outlets to the House of Representatives' newly-formed Delivering on Government Efficiency (DOGE) subcommittee as GOP lawmakers call to strip them of taxpayer money over their left-wing bias. He specifically called out his "namesake" Maher over her repeated assertions that NPR was...

The encrypted-messaging service Signal is the application of choice for dissenters around the world. The app has been downloaded by more than 100 million users and boasts high-profile endorsements from NSA leaker Edward Snowden and serial entrepreneur Elon Musk. Signal has created the perception that its users, including political dissidents, can communicate with one another without fear of government interception or persecution. But the insider history of Signal raises questions about the app’s origins and its relationship with government—in particular, with the American intelligence apparatus. Such a relationship would be troubling, given how much we have learned, in recent years,...

Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) questioned NPR CEO Katherine Maher at today's House DOGE Committee hearing.

Something smells fishy about the latest developments in the ongoing 'Signalgate' situation, and it's not just The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg's questionable ethics in lurking in private government communications. A deeper dive into Signal reveals connections that should have every American concerned about the intersection of Big Tech, liberal media, and government communications. The Biden administration specifically approved Signal for sensitive government communications, choosing it over other available platforms. Enter Katherine Maher, the CEO of National Public Radio (NPR). Maher has shown herself to be anything but politically neutral. How extreme are we talking? Back in 2020, Maher called Trump a...

Christopher F. Rufo ⚔️ @realchrisrufo · Follow Rep. Brandon Gill brings up all of Katherine Maher's old tweets claiming that "America is addicted to white supremacy" and supporting looting, reparations, and BLM. This woman is the blonde version of Robin DiAngelo.Maybe it would be easier to list the seven Tweets she still stands by.If you were really making an effort plausibly to pass yourself off as a "public broadcaster" representing the full range of the American people, you would never hire Katherine Maher or anyone like her.

On her show Thursday, SiriusXM’s Megyn Kelly called Republican Texas Rep. Brandon Gill a “stone-cold assassin” after he pressed NPR CEO Katherine Maher over her political bias. Maher testified before the House Oversight Subcommittee on Wednesday regarding NPR’s government funding as lawmakers work with the Department of Government Efficiency to cut wasteful spending. On “The Megyn Kelly Show,” Kelly said she believed Maher would lose taxpayer funding. She highlighted Gill as her new “favorite” congressman.

I was speaking with my nephew earlier this evening. He floated the idea that since U.S. District Judge James Boasberg has been assigned the Signal-gate case, President Trump should offer a blanket pardon to everyone on that chat with the reporter being the exception. That President Trump should just do this tomorrow or as soon as possible. The blanket pardons done by Biden is now the baseline. In fact, for every suit the Dems bring up, President Trump should issue a blanket pardon for any and all parties involved. What say you, Freepers?

Cackles rang out on Capitol Hill Wednesday as NPR's CEO argued her newsroom isn't biased. The response was seen during Katherine Maher's congressional testimony Wednesday, where NPR is facing losing its federal funding. Presiding over the matter is Georgia firebrand Marjorie Taylor Greene, but it was a back-and-forth between Maher and Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan that elicited the laugh.

John McIntyre couldn’t believe it. The publisher of the Real Clear Polling National Average, America’s first presidential poll aggregator, woke on October 31st to see his product denounced in the New York Times. Launched in 2002 and long a mainstay of campaign writers and news consumers alike, the RCP average, he learned, was part of a “torrent” of partisan rubbish being “weaponized” to “deflate Democrats’ enthusiasm” and “undermine faith in the entire system.” “They actually wrote that our problem was we didn’t weight results,” says an incredulous McIntyre. “That we didn’t put a thumb on the scale.” The Times ended...

The Color Revolution is restless. Beginning in the former Soviet republics in the early 2000s, it moved along the coast of North Africa with the so-called Arab Spring in the 2010s, and, into the current decade, has spread further. The ostensible purpose of Color Revolutions—named after the Rose Revolution, Orange Revolution, and Tulip Revolution in Georgia, Ukraine, and Kyrgyzstan, respectively—is to replace authoritarian regimes with Western liberal democracies. American and European intelligence services are often heavily involved in these revolutions, with ambitions not only to spread modern ideologies but also to undermine geopolitical opponents. The West’s favored methods of supporting...
