Tracking Left wing funding of NPR
Posted on Saturday, January 02, 2010 7:41:39 PM by Halfmanhalfamazing
As you start to read all this, you’ll laugh at how incestuous it all gets. Let’s start with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, which as I’ve noted in the past is tied in with the Soros foundation. Together, the two worked on something called The Project on Death in America.(PDIA)

And speaking of Mr Soros, he himself(his foundations) have given directly to NPR. Compared to some of the other numbers I’m seeing, it’s a small amount of $250,000. But it doesn’t matter. Soros money is soros money in my book.

Additional information about RWJF can be found here.

According to RWJF themselves, they’ve given well over 9 million dollars to NPR. And that’s just a quick google search.

How about the Ford Foundation? Who is known for funding ACORN.

According to Al Gore’s news site, Ford has given NPR(and PBS) at least 50 million dollars. Sourcewatch has another 3 mil given.

Other groups(in the same links above regarding the Ford foundation) known for funding ACORN, who also fund NPR are:
The Annie E Casey Foundation
Bank of America
The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
Here’s a good one. The David Geffen Foundation gives grants to NPR. Sweetness and Light has a great posting regarding some of the anti-US foundations out there, and you’ll find the Geffen Foundation there.

Take note how the Geffen Foundation funds CREW. For those who don’t know or have forgotten, CREW or Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington is a soros funded outfit. Funny how this all comes full circle from the beginning, no?
In any case, that list shines light upon several foundations of which you’ll see the Wallace Global Fund. Another NPR funding entity.
NPR gets funds from the Melville Charitable Trust. The Trust’s executive director - Robert(Bob) Hohler is an Obama and Moveon.org contributor.

You have the John S / James L Knight foundation as an NPR supporter. Knightfound claims to be a supporter of quality journalism, but then they also support the Huffington Post.

The John and Catherine MacArthur Foundation, has in the past given money to La Raza types.

The William T Grant Foundation is another NPR supporting foundation. Amongst it’s board members is Robert Granger who hails from the MDRC.

Why is that important? The MDRC was created by the Ford Foundation; of ACORN funding fame.
http://www.mdrc.org/about_what_is_mdrc.htm
The Carnegie Foundation supports NPR like the MacArthur Foundation. Also like macfound, they support La Raza.(see links above)
The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation is another. They support just about every left wing organization you can think of. Tides, ACLU, Amnesty international, ACORN, NARAL, and of course, NPR.

I’m sure many other NPR grant sources have far left wing ties as well. I started out trying to track down specific dollar amounts at the beginning as you can see, but after seeing just how deep this rabbit hole goes, I gave up on that and just pointed out the obviousness of all this. The dollar amounts clearly don’t matter. This is a huge cesspool and this is all at the root of a news outlet that does not openly claim it’s bias.
And Soros has said he’s afraid America will win the war on terror. So it makes sense for Soros to replace any commentators or reporters who comprehends that at least part of Islam is intent on our destruction.
In an interview with Juan, he said that the person who fired him said the order came from above...perhaps their magnanimous donor.
