Yup. I have always believed this. |
Please review NPR’s budget and review the federal budget to tell me what funding is going there. We’ll wait. |
They have a great "shell game" going. Needs to end. |
Totally ludicrous. Operation Mockingbird is mere conspiracy. Also totally disregard how powerful politicians' bimbo daughters score multi-million media deals. |
Just saw a flier for NPR/ local publuc broadcasting hanging on our front door. So sorry I missed the person. Flier went straight to our recycling bin. |
Well said. Tired of funding their garbage. |
WSJ article about new CEO. She seems very focused on helping NPR grow its audience but not open to understanding why NPR is losing its audience.

Maher is clearly a very intelligent and extremely liberal CEO who knows how to word rebuttal statements that she hopes will dispel concerns related to the number of shrinking listeners. I don't think she understands or even cares that national, public broadcasts should reflect more than her own viewpoints. |
By which you mean that CPB funds stations, and stations buy products from NPR (and other places, produce their own, pay their staff and maintain their towers and websites). That is like saying since my partner is a government employee, the government is funding grocery stores and my local restaurants. |
Describe their sources of income as you wish. Clearly, many people are not tuning in or making contributions. . |
If they aren’t getting a lot of direct taxpayer funding, then it shouldn’t be a problem for it to be cut altogether. |
