[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to listen to NPR every day during the drive to and from work, but even as a lifelong democrat it just got too left wing for me so I stopped.  Not every story needs to be reported through the lens of race and/or gender/sexuality.  I still consume a bunch of NPR stuff, but more of it is through podcasts like Serial, This American Life, Wait Wait Don't Tell Me and such. [/quote]

I feel exactly the same way.[/quote]

+1.  Former NPR employee here.  They only cater to millennials.  Gen Xer Steve Inskeep is hanging on for his professional life!

Separately, it has been comical to listen to them try to cover Facebook.  (Every second sentence ‘An editorial note: Facebook is a major contributor to NPR’).  Ever hear an investigative piece on McDonalds impact on Amazon rainforest?  Didn’t think so after 110 million from Kroc.  It’s like PBS - the Petroleum Broadcasting System.  Listen to the BBC [b]if you want solid government financed news[/b].[/quote]

I do not want this!  :lol: [/quote]
