Yeah, they’re probably the best large American news reporting organization left, but they are far far far from perfect and their biggest problem is they try to normalize and sanitize everything the United States does
Yeap… I can barely listen to npr anymore. Their interviewing process is basically just a platform for fascist to make wild claims without any sort of actual pushback. At most at the end of the segment the host will make a mild rebuttal about one aspect of their interview. But most of the time it’s just “well that’s all the time we have”.
There’s no pushback or fact checking, or even giving equal time to an opposing view. They should be hammering every inaccurate claim made by these assholes. If there isn’t enough time in your programming to do so, then you shouldn’t have these liars on your show to begin with.
Journalism is dead, and it’s because the whole field is a walled garden where the only people who can afford to get their foot in the door or take the unpaid internships are nepo babies and trust fund kids, and those people don’t have backbones.
Finally NPR is showing a little backbone when it directly affects them.
Love me some NPR but they have been sane washing orange mussolini for years.

“Now listen to this long musical interlude for no fucking reason at all”.
They don’t call it Nice Polite Republicans for nothing.
And Geedubz for 8 more. And Bush the 1. And Ronnie Raygun.
Shit, they got so thouroughly pwned after 9/11, I noped out then.
I mean, it’s all you get in a small town, but it hasn’t been really left in forever and a day.
