I'm sure it has to do with the fact she has filled NPR with a bunch of leftists and that has now been exposed, blown wide open, to the public.

Thanks, ugga.

"The Board accepted her resignation with understanding, genuine regret, and great respect for her leadership of NPR these past two years.

"Vivian brought vision and energy to this organization.

Oh yes, turning it into a partisan, biased left-wing sanctuary.

Bout damn time.

Her days were numbered.

That is one big victory for turning the USA back to the best in the world. Where we use to be what all others wanted.

No surprise here. Just confirming what all conservatives have known for eons. And of course the far left has denied for just as long.

NPR has confirmed everything we all knew. Shameful.

Well, I do hope if NPR gets defunded that they drop the word "Public" from their name because they certainly don't represent the views of the general public. Maybe National Leftist Radio would be more appropriate.
