While of course NPR hosts have freedom of speech, I believe this was an extremely inappropriate thing to say.

If the NPR host had brought on the pastor he claims is his source, to make this claim on air, perhaps a case could be made that it was legitimate news. However the alleged source for this shocking claim was not named.

Fake. Not believable at all. Whatever was said, was characterized by leftist haters of God, so it is certainly wrong.

On the public's airwaves with taxpayer funding, freedom to say ANYTHING?

Going forward, I believe the Trump Administration has indicated it will be dealing with such matters, at least the funding aspect.

Let the far left pay for their own radio shows. Or we can start funding our radio shows with their money and see how they like it.

This is an old strategy NPR uses when they claim “All Things Considered.” They bring in a crack-pot to represent the conservative point of view.

My God, I cannot believe that our tax dollars pays for this rubbish. Please, is there any sanity out there in this country? Cancel this atrocious part of the federal payroll.

If you continually bite the hand that feeds you, that hand may be pulled away.

So it’s been a fantastic week for us.

Trump has done incredible things in just 5 days.

So we can forgive him for not defunding this insane propaganda operation this week.

Come Monday, perhaps he can remedy that.

What...evidence from a liberal? Never going to happen. Their entire philosophy hinges on an emotional base with no regard to the facts.

The morning program NPR calls "The Takeaway" is even worse. The host almost never puts on anyone with a conservative viewpoint at all -- even a weak one.

Threaten away National Pervert Radio, it seems God has already acted to "eliminate" NPR through Trump's Executive Hand!
