It is amazing to me that some people believe NPR is an objective news source. During the campaign they ran about 20 anti-Trump articles per day. They've since ramped it up to about 50.

I'd love to kill the entire State off altogether but if cancerous tentacles of the beast happen to be destroyed along the way I'll consider it a good thing.

Please don't.

It's nice having one station on the dial that isn't country music, Christian music, sports, or conservative talk radio. Conservatives own almost the entire radio dial, at least in my area, except for NPR.

You're asking "please don't" to authoritarian right wing nut jobs? I'm sure they are really concerned with having diverse opinions available to you. You can get everything you need from Alex Jones, Breitbart, and talk radio.

NPR is toast. (which is OK with me since I don't want even one cent of my tax dollars going to it).

Better start developing an appreciation for Waylon, Hank & Merle.

@hound109, @KonaldDuth @No_Recess - how much funding do you believe NPR receives from the federal government?

@KonaldDuth - please point out the 20 "anti-Trump articles" that were posted today.

The fact that your radio has a dial says a lot. Public radio may be just the thing for you.
