[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uri Berliner's article made it okay for people to say out loud what they have been thinking... NPR has gone down hill. Full stop. They are losing listeners and had to cut staff due to budget shortfalls. The organization is not thriving.

Naysayers who continue to defend the organization say all is great.[/b] But facts don't support this and Uri Berliner's concerns clearly resonate with a lot of listeners. [/quote]

Every last one of them is ultra-left wing and cannot stand  people who  are different from them.  They are not tolerant. [/quote]

I can’t speak for anyone else but I think anyone who is a Republican in 2024 is a total POS. There isn’t a single valid reason unless you’re anti-democracy, anti-diversity, anti-LGBTQ, anti-woman, anti-environment, or anti-fact.

After the last several years, I have no patience for their bullcrap.

DP. Yeah, this is what the PP was talking about. This is the opposite of tolerance. [/quote]

DP.  I will admit to an intolerance of outright lies and insane conspiracy theories.  I do not want those repeated ad nauseum on any news source I spend my time on unless there is clear debunking that follows immediately.

If the GOP and the right want to  have their views covered, they need to start saying something in the realm of reality.  I am happy to listen to *conservative* viewpoints on finance etc.  Bring it on.  But right now, the GOP is the party of far-right nutjobs.   Their lies should not be parroted unchecked.

[b]And, just so you know, I feel the same way about the far-left nutjobs.  Fact check them.[/b][/quote]

Which doesn’t seem to be what NPR is willing to do any more. That’s why we are in this mess. [/quote]

Please give an example of a far-left position that was reported without fact checking.  I'm truly asking.[/quote]
