I almost appreciate NPR staying taxpayer financed. You can always turn it on and explain to your kids . "THis is your brain on drugs."

In actuality, I'd be knocked over if NPR was anything but liberal. Poeple who live off the taxpayer dole are not really happy when anyone announces that era of big government is over.

Let's see,

NPR is Liberal.

In other breaking news:
The Pope is reported to be Catholic.
Bears habitually "do their business" in woodland areas.
Immersion in water leads to a condition known as "wet."

Duh.

And today's "YA THINK???" Award goes to Brent Bozell, for stating the blatantly obvious.

when anyone announces that era of big government is over.

Surely you aren't suggesting that it is.

I hardly ever listen to NPR except to hear 'The Prairie Home Companion. I did listen to NPR's Fresh Air with Terry Gross when she interviewed Bill O Reilly about his latest book. Bill handed her her head in a sack. Great stuff.

It is funny to watch the liberals in panic-mode over talk-radio and Foxnews. They are trying to concoct ways to level the playing field with the Fairness Doctrine and more heavy-handed FCC regulations. What liberals don't understand is that it isn't that conservatives have an advantage in broadcasting...it is that they have a message that is resonating with more people and thus...is more popular.

The liberals are intentionally trying to confuse popularity with inequality. It's not that they don't have ample resources to get their message out; it's just that people aren't listening to their message, and therefore, in their view, it's not fair. In other words, they just don't believe in...or trust, the free-market.

Npr has the best music --- fox sound effects are getting tiresome. Npr goes and ruins it all by opening their gay mouths.

They compared Edward Teller to a Nazi propagandist. Unforgivable.

It's easy to see through the liberal bias at NPR and appreciate the higher rate of information transfer than you get from places like Fox or from Rush.

NPR admits liberal bias . . .

In other news . . . sun rises in east, Pope rumored to be Catholic . . .

My only reason for tuning in to NPR was it was and in most markets still is the only source for classical or jazz music on the dial. However, with commercial free Internet radio and the growth of satelite radio, I see NPR as doomed to neverending telethons and constant whining about the lack of government support. Face it-- there just aren't enough people out there who want to listen to all this liberal drivel to support NPR.

If NPR were smart they would dump "All Things Considered (very liberaly)" and find some great conservative comentator and have a 3 hour call-in show a-la Rush. Then the pledeges might come pouring in.

Geez - I'm suprised Terry Gross went off on Bill. If she had on the show a serial killer of the Axe-murderer variety, she probably would say... "Was it difficult finding the right type of file for the blade?"
