Yeah.. Enough said. The GOP has officially left the station, bound for someplace called ****hole politics. Have fun right wing NJ's- this republican officially left the party. 3/4 of millennials have abandoned the party.
You aren't Conservatives- you are bigots with an internet connection. Congrat's. Keep sucking Fox crap- it's proven to be the home of the most ill-informed audience.
In 2012, a Fairleigh Dickinson University survey reported that Fox News viewers were less informed about current events than people who didn't follow the news at all. The survey had asked current events questions like "Which party has the most seats in the House of Representatives?" and also asked what source of news people followed. The Fox viewers' current events scores were in the basement. This finding was immediately trumpeted by the liberal media—by Fox, not so much—and has since become known as the Fox News effect. It conjures the image of Fox News as a black hole that sucks facts out of viewers' heads.
"If you watch Fox News, you are living on a different planet than you are if you are listening to NPR.”
He's talking about information bubbles. That the people pick the news sources that fit their world view.
I could make a guess at some folks world views just based off the responses and the OP's decision to make a title out of half of his sentence to take it out of context.

Are they finally admitting NPR is liberal propaganda just as much as Fox is conservative propaganda? I thought they were still trying to maintain the charade the NPR is fair and balanced and actually news.

Well NPR certainly does not broadcast the same content I hear on christian American Family Radio station. I listen to it when I need to stay awake for long drives. It's virtually the complete opposite of my world view so it helps keep me awake and alert.

Actually NPR and PBSNewshour are consistently rated only slightly left of center, with CNN and MSNBC farther left on the spectrum.
In analysis- I think Right Wingers don't trust those outlets because they simply don't parrot RW radio/Cable news, which is horridly biased and fraught with partisan points. In other words- NPR and PBS offer too much fact, and not enough red meat.
Lot's of supporting evidence out there, but people that want to live in their silo's refuse to look outside, regardless of the facts.
It's nice to have a non-commercial news outlet available to all. At least I know in rural Montana I can get a fair understanding of national and world events via public broadcasting- free of a lot of opinion like Hannity or Maddow.
Obama still blaming Fox for Hillary's epic loss and his party losing 1000 seats under his presidency eh?
