SSKinda saying the quite part out loud there mate.
That's a hell of a defense mechanism.
NPR suspends veteran editor who blew whistle on liberal bias at organization

Turned it on this morning and the first thing I heard was "non binary" and something about Title IX.
This is such a strange thread. If every NPR listener in the world was on HORT I'd be surprised if it could reach 8 pages.
I haven't listened to them recently, but Trump era it got to be ridiculous. Very preachy and focused on identity politics.
I used to listen to the NPR Politics podcast during the Trump years; don't recall any of that. Found them being mostly apologetic/bending over backwards to "normalize" things the Trump admin was doing that were far from normal...
May not have been on that. Like I said earlier... it wasn't all the programming. For me it was just leaving the station on NPR long enough while driving on road-trips.
Colin Kaepernick was blacklisted from the NFL because he was too "Woke"
I think their real brilliance here was introducing the public to the idea of whiteness and basically assigning it all the bad stuff.
I wonder why that didn't go over well.
Same with "White" capitalized.
Like... if you're going to group a bunch of complaints about a group of people, don't attach it to an immutable characteristic. People tend to take umbrage with that.
Taxpayer monies should never ever be directed to NPR.
Omg it's happening guys 👀💀 NPR is first up to the block!!!
Best news since the election results last week!!!!
The word of the day is WINNING, there is going to be so much WINNING we may get tired of WINNING.
NPR funding does not remotely put a dent in the budget.
It does, however, serve to destroy independent media in this country.

It does nothing of the sort. If they want to continue to air bias content, they're free to do it with their own money.
It absolutely does.
NPR has provided minimally biased and accurate news stories for decades.
Just because someone has programmed you to deny that doesn't make it untrue.
I'm not sure how discussions with obscure book authors or Broadway singers is biased but ok.
Every little bit of negative value removed is a benefit.
I absolutely loved NPR from 1996-2002. They were a big part of my life. Then they became big time cheerleaders for the Iraq War during the run up, and I lost my love for them.
I still occasionally catch some content here and there and they do seem pretty obsessed with identity issues. I agree with @Joes Place that they apear to be attempting to normalize certain identity groups perhaps in reaction to others demonizing those same groups.

I too liked NPR once upon a time, but justifying their current behavior by saying they're defending the helpless isn't acceptable and is nothing more than identity politics being justified. This is why the left just got slaughtered last week.
NPR is nothing but a mouthpiece for the far left wokers.
Hopefully on Day 1 Trump cuts off NPR from the public funded tit they suck on.
Their "cheerleading" of the Iraq War would appear to contradict your bullshit here...
