NPR Funding about to be axed

Posted By Ed Ashton

Well, I suppose NPR probably does sound "biased and partisan" if you get all your news and information from Fox news and similar sources. That would automatically make ACTUAL high quality, unbiased, factually accurate news of the sort you get from NPR seem seem liberal-biased by comparison.

An awful lot of people listen to NPR, and smaller, rural stations that depend on the CPB for funding to keep them on the air would suffer if the Republicans manage to shut them down. That would probably piss off a lot of people, so this whole thing, if the GOP manages to pull it off (and I don't think they will) could blow up in their face.
