Some decades ago NPR got a corporatized CEO. Shortly afterwards, a gentleman progressively oriented news man was suddenly fired from his early morning program. Then, later on NPR iniatiated their “non-commercial” commercials regularly chewing up time. Concomitantly, News hosts interviewing “experts and notables” somehow forgot to mention those beacons of truth and wisdom were from the Federalist Society and various right-wing think tanks. And when listening carefully to reportage you came increasingly aware of greater and more frequent sins of omission. So the picture given you was snagged in certain directions like a fun house mirror where you body contorts and stretches in weird exaggerated movements. I was angry about the deceits for a long time and wrote letters. Then, with sadness I simply accepted the consequence of corporatization is purposeful distortion in service of mammon in lieu of service to civic integrity. Always —Inc. in the manner it operates today —-cheapens, fowls, and degrades “right relationship” with anything animate and inanimate. Like someone wise said. You cannot serve both Mammon and God.(mystery, life source, creativity, the great Thou…).
The people you hear on NPR are members of SAG/AFTRA and they just read the scripts they are given as convincingly as they can, as they portray professional journalists they will never be.
You clearly are blinded by some weird abject and irrational fear of the word "communist". I can't think of any country on earth right now that actually fits the definition of communist.
It is said that most of the Chinese Politburo are billionaires. I have no way of verifying this tidbit, of course, but it's pretty obvious that there is a vigorous exercise of capitalism going on there.
Well, people can always throw words around heedlessly. Frequently, words supposedly denoting political, philosophical, or moral ideas often wind up being understood or promoted as the opposite of the original definition.
True, AJ. Some years ago both NPR and PBS signed onto a document to refrain from criticizing IsraHell.
They’re nothing but MSM.

Maybe that's because the head of NPR is Netanyahu's first wife
Miriam Weizmann died in 1974.
Just like Hitler committed suicide.
Just like one of his many doubles was made to look like a suicide so no one would track him to Argentina.
All white people look the same to me, so I wouldn't know; maybe she had a sex change before leaving for America and became Nixon's first lady.
Hitler faked his death and spent the rest of his life in luxury with his mistress in Argentina. Your post doesn't seem to be very cogent.
They are the only communistic parts of America's mainstream media.
They are also its most copious liars, largely by omission.
They are hardly communistic! Communists have a sense of honor, NPR a has none. They are 110% capitalist approved and supported.
You clearly have never read The Communist Manifesto unless you failed to understand.
110% is impossible.
You clearly are blinded by some weird abject and irrational fear of the word "communist". I can't think of any country on earth right now that actually fits the definition of communist.
In what way is communist China not communistic?
It is said that most of the Chinese Politburo are billionaires. I have no way of verifying this tidbit, of course, but it's pretty obvious that there is a vigorous exercise of capitalism going on there.
Yes a true communist state would have no billionaires but China has countless.
That is because you have never learned what distinguishes communism from any other ism.
I learned all about it from Buford T Justice

😆 Says you. Afraid I've learned way more during my lifetime than you have.
