If you think NPR is serving the left, you need to read this article from Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting.

"How Public is Public Radio? A study of NPR's guest list"

http://www.fair.org/extra/0405/npr-study.html

And there's a rebuttal:

"NPR Responds to FAIR's NPR Study"

http://www.commondreams.org/news2004/0601-06.htm

After I read the articles, I couldn't let NPR stories go by as easily. The questions come up: Why do they have this guy on as a pundit? Is he really a liberal? Is the whole topic of debate something I as a liberal care about?

They did a show on whether Kerry should speak out against Reagan right after his death. It was a useless argument. The real question to be asked is how DO the Democrats speak truth to power, and let it be known the pain he caused to people during his administration. And who SHOULD speak out: Lautenburg looks like a good BS meter.

NPR went for the safe talk, as they have for apparently ten years...

For me, NPR is now called CPR (Centrist Public Radio or Conservative Public Radio, take your pick).
