There isn't any way to reform NPR, it would be best to shut it down.

"It seems to me that to organize on the basis of feeding people or righting social injustice and all that is very valuable. But to rally people around the idea of modernism, modernity, or something is simply silly. I mean, I don't know what kind of a cause that is, to be up to date. I think it ultimately leads to fashion and snobbery and I'm against it." Jack Levine: January 3, 1915 – November 8, 2010 LEVEL BILLIONAIRES OUT OF EXISTENCE

ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, they'll seek a lower level, they always seem to find one.
DeleteLiberals were the biggest suckers in the world when they bought all of that heroic press junk Hollywood and professional journalists and their hired lawyers put out. The media is never any better than they fear they have to be, the only way they fear it is if people can sue them for libel for the actual publication of lies. If the judge thinks it was an honest mistake they could require a prominent retraction with making them pay court costs. There has to be money lost and public shaming or it won't work. The media's behavior has taught me that.
My favorite example in that linked article was Tom Brokaw insisting Clinton get herself to a neurologist.
DeleteI've never forgiven Brokaw for labeling "The Greatest Generation" (ass-kisser), and I'm completely through with him now.

it's obvious that NPR is trying to elect Donald Trump.
Absolutely. Fortunately, it's also obvious that nobody under the age of 65 listens to either NPR or terrestrial radio in general.
Hey, You're the geriatric asshole who's still listening to NPR.
ReplyDeleteNobody else with a functioning pulse is. And in case you're wondering, I always thought it was hippie granola crap.
