With the hated dictator threatening to defund NPR (NBC), let’s have a quick survey regarding favorite NPR articles for the working class taxpayer to fund.
Here’s one that I received recently from a friend in San Francisco (he’s a closeted Deplorable because diversity is our biggest strength and also anyone who didn’t vote Democrat has to be fired):
The peasants had to pay the following elites, apparently, to obtain this valuable lesson:
- Alejandra Marquez Janse (writer)
- Patrick Jarenwattananon (writer)
- Asma Khalid (writer)
- Catie Dull(!) (illustrator)
- an uncredited editor
- some web nerds ($150,000/year total compensation when considering salary, benefits, pension?)
Readers: Please add some links to favorite NPR stories!

- “America Reckons With Racial Injustice: Even In A Pandemic, WHO Believes That Public Protests Are Important” (NPR, June 2020): No need to worry about COVID-19 if you’re part of a massive crowd celebrating the life and protesting the death of the greatest American who ever lived
- “A User’s Guide To Masks: What’s Best At Protecting Others (And Yourself)” (NPR, July 2020): it’s perfectly safe to leave the house so long as you have a saliva-soaked bandana over your mouth
- “It’s Time To Up Your Mask Game” (NPR, August 2021): since every American who wants the proven-perfect COVID-19 vaccine has already had it… “Wear two masks”
- “With omicron, you need a mask that means business” (NPR, December 2021): You just need (1) vaccine, (2) vaccine, (3) booster, (4) N95 mask.
Mine is not an NPR article but rather just a tweet by them, https://x.com/NPRpubliceditor/status/1319281101223940096
Actually can I change my answer to this one? I somehow forgot.
At least “in defense of looting” could be done, by someone, in the spirit of open minded discussion. This one was just refusing to cover news.

While this is only an ensample of the reporting on this specific muzzie invasion topic, it was the terrorist de-erection referendum reporting that made me see the light : this was propaganda — not one presentation of the viewpoint of the side of the majority of Toblerone-eaters that wanted these child-groomers to quit spouting Satanism in an annoying manner.

By a mile it would be “in defense of looting,” an interview with the author of a book of the same name. They double memory holed it; they rewrote the story itself to be less supportive of looting, then they deleted their mea culpa, perhaps because it concluded “ Casual observers might conclude that NPR is more interested in fact-checking conservative viewpoints than liberal viewpoints.”

Cartalk was a great radio talk show that ran on NPR affiliate stations. It is long defunct. So stop financing NPR, they will have to do something profitable. Like syndicating Hannity talk show and spanning out successfully affiliates.
Talking profitability, I know an old lady, who is sickly and does not get out much, who religiously donates to NPR for their classical music programming. Somehow she filters out everything else from NPR as noise, probably because English is her second or third language. As far as I know she probably votes Republican, but it really does not matter at her locale.
PBS is bad because it is bad, not because it receives public money. Actually, I believe just 15% of its budget comes from federal funding. The BBC is government funded and most would agree that it produces good quality programing.
So what skin colour should I use? I cannot be bothered to change away from the default ‘Simpsons yellow’, but maybe it show latent deplorable tendencies?
