Not to worry. He may not be on NPR but he still has a PBS talk show and it's as far left as you can get.
You haven't heard college and other indie radio. Anything that carries signal from Pacifica and such - watch out. Flip through the stations in the Bay Area any time and you can hear anti-government propaganda. It's odd that people will use the public radio waves to say how much they're being oppressed, repressed, depressed, obsessed, and reposessed by the government. Then you hear crickets chirping. That's a free country. Maybe a little too free, but that doesn't seem to sink in.
