[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]They haven’t lost my trust, it’s just unlistenable[/b]. It sucks because I used to love it and i think it provided the rare center-left, balanced, America-wide set of viewpoints. That’s gone now, and to the point of all PPs, people have moved to podcasts which largely support their priors. It was a huge disservice to Americans for NPR to abandon its mission for the sake of its staffers’ fragile political egos. I hope they can go through some creative destruction to get back to value but I doubt it’s possible at this point.[/quote] Completely agree with all of this, especially the bolded. To produce something “unlistenable” to your own demographic! Now that’s a failure. When your own people, your own long time listeners can’t bear to listen to another second, there’s a problem. NPR used to be so folksy and unbiased and economy oriented- every day people oriented and now EVERY story is through the prism of “identity.” Even Democrats don’t want to hear that![/quote]
