“It’s npr, so I’m calling BS.”

Npr also says “...falsely called the 2020 election fraudulent”.

Ridiculous. Shameful journalism.

They meant the person uttered a falsehood but that sentence is a double negative and says the opposite.

The sentence says he falsely called the election fraudulent. Net meaning: NPR’s opinion is that the election was not fraudulant.

To be accurate, the person truly called the election fraudulent, though there’s disagreement whether the election was actually fraudulent.
