[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I vote democrat and even I think that NPR is liberal BS.  This morning they spent my commute time interviewing a male police officer who decided to become a woman in his 40s or 50s.  Can't they just report the news?[/quote]

So don't listen?[/quote]

What else is there to listen to? I listen because I expect a[b] centrist bi partisan pov[/b]. It's never that.[/quote]

Are we listening to the same NPR? They have centrist conservative commentators on ALL THE TIME. Unfortunately, they themselves are exasperated by their own party most of the time because of the batshit crazy things GOP leaders are saying and doing.

If you were a fan of Reagan and Bush Sr, you should be a fan of what conservative commentators on NPR are saying. They levy fair criticisms of both Obama's and the extreme right's policies (not that Obama is an "extreme leftist"). Hillary Clinton is a center-right candidate in pretty much any other democracy in the world.[/quote]

I will agree I hear more criticism of Obama on npr than any other left-biased media. Making them only slightly left? Left but not afraid to allow room for criticism (my theory is they are just negative all the time* so it fits). However HRC is NOT center right. *I* am the epitome of center right (very center, very slightly right), and I disagree with her on almost every issue. Only area we'd agree is foreign policy.  So I guess she's center right on FP (and that makes sense as I guess the libs are always naming her a warhawk.)

*negatuvd all the time = yep, they feed off of a negative news story. Ones that are as hopeless and contentious as possible. All of the music/beats they play in between segments give me momentary depression. Stuff I would have listened to when I was 21. In my emo phase. [/quote]
