Column: Eager Publicists for Racial Reparations in California

May 10th, 2023 5:55 AM

How insanely radical and unjust can blue states get? California’s nine-member Reparations Task Force voted May 6 to recommend that state lawmakers provide billions of dollars in compensation payments to black residents along with a formal apology for slavery. NPR touted the commision's work and wouldn't allow an opposing point of view. They strongly suggested white opponents were racist.

BYE!! NPR Quits Twitter Over Twitter’s (Accurate) ‘Govt.-Funded’ Label

April 12th, 2023 1:45 PM

On Wednesday morning, taxpayer-funded National Public Radio (NPR) upped the ante in its hissy fit against the Elon Musk-owned Twitter as, in light of the fact that Twitter added the “state-affiliated media” label to NPR’s account and then tweaked it to say “government-funded media,” the far-left crackpots would be quitting the social media platform because Twitter was “falsely implying that we…

NewsBusters Podcast: Can’t Say Leftist Agitators Storm State Capitols

April 7th, 2023 10:23 PM

When leftist agitators storm state capitals, you can’t use those words. Leftist media won’t use labels for their own kind, and they won’t use “storm” for a left-wing disturbance inside a state capitol building. Two black legislators in Tennessee became instant media heroes when the Republican House majority expelled them for creating a disturbance on the House floor and  violating House rules…

NPR Enables Jeffries: We Won't Pay 'Ransom Note' to GOP 'Extremists'

January 28th, 2023 6:46 AM

NPR sounded like National Democrat Radio again on Friday as Morning Edition anchor Steve Inskeep interviewed House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. It was extremely reminiscent of Inskeep's regular puffball interviews with President Obama, as Jeffries is clearly trying to project that same fake-moderation, and Inskeep is trying to help.The NPR headline is the DNC headline: "Hakeem…

NewsBusters Podcast: Biden Visits Border, NPR Asks Why Border Control?

January 9th, 2023 10:52 PM

President Biden's visit to the border in El Paso was greeted by liberal media operatives in two noticeable ways. Either they sympathized with Biden's work on this "complex" issue, or -- like NPR's Steve Inskeep -- they asked Team Biden "why" they would tell people not to come to America and cross the border illegally? MRC Latino Director Jorge Bonilla offers his expertise on these matters.

NPR Attacks Rush Limbaugh and Salem Radio in Seven-Minute Hit Piece

January 7th, 2023 8:35 AM

On Friday's Morning Edition, co-host Steve Inskeep broadcast some unintentional hilarity when offering a seven-minute attack on conservative talk radio starring Katie Thornton, who has a liberal podcast series called "The Divided Dial."

NPR Analyzes GOP with Author of 'The Republican Party Lost Its Mind'

November 12th, 2022 6:37 AM

National Public Radio hates Republicans, and it doesn't matter if Republicans pay a chunk of their salaries. On Wednesday, Morning Edition anchor Steve Inskeep brought on New York Times Magazine writer Robert Draper, author of a book colorfully titled Weapons Of Mass Delusion: When The Republican Party Lost Its Mind.

Why NPR Can't Lecture Anyone About Refusing to Condemn Rioting

October 18th, 2022 10:20 AM

We know National Public Radio has promoted a book called In Defense of Looting and championed an author who wants riots to be described as "rebellions," as an admirable political tactic. On Monday's Morning Edition, NPR anchor Steve Inskeep welcomed a radical leftist author who thinks President Biden shouldn't have spoken out against rioting in 2020.

NPR Dumps Annual Reading of Declaration of Independence on July 4

July 5th, 2022 1:30 PM

Taxpayer-funded National Public Radio canceled their annual July Fourth reading of the Declaration of Independence. The surprise here is that NPR ever showed reverence for 1776 in the first place. They’re more marinated in the spirit of 1974, lobbying to impeach Nixon and lose the Vietnam War and enshrine abortion on demand.

March 16th, 2022 3:43 PM

National Public Radio broadcast ten minutes of an interview with Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Wednesday's Morning Edition.

Trump HANGS UP on NPR Host Pressing Him on 'Rigged' Election Claims

January 12th, 2022 7:47 PM

In his first presidential campaign and during his presidency, Donald Trump was interviewed by many liberal outlets but he never granted an interview to NPR and PBS. He understood that he was running as a populist and they are elitist channels. They’re taxpayer-funded, but sound like they’re Democrat-owned. That streak just came to an end.

NPR Host Interviewed Omarova As Softly As He Gushed Over Obama

December 20th, 2021 9:37 AM

Some media outlets pretended withdrawn banking-regulator nominee Saule Omarova was somehow smeared as a radical, especially National Public Radio, home of leftist radicals. Morning Edition host Steve Inskeep supportively interviewed Omarova and ignored any and all evidence of her extreme record.

NPR Is UPSET: Poll Finds Bad Biden Numbers, Dems Failing to Buy Votes

December 12th, 2021 1:51 PM

NPR sounded the alarm over its latest poll on Thursday's Morning Edition: Biden's approval rating sunk to 42 percent, a record low as president, and poll results on their massive spending packages "really raises a lot of red flags for the party."

Column: Misty Memories for 'Colin Powell Republicans'

October 20th, 2021 5:57 AM

The most annoying part of Colin Powell remembrances was the media Democrats dragging the Republican Party into it. CNN's Chris Cillizza fake-mourned "The Colin Powell Republican no longer exists in the Republican Party.” NPR pretended Powell was a Republican "for the last decade or so," in the midst of endorsing four Democrats in a row for president.
