I personally can't stand the monotone level of voice and sound they use at NPR. No one ever gets enthused or excited at NPR. They are all so boring. The monotone sounds like they are trying to hypnotize you.

Where do they find these people or do they create them ad hoc?

That's actually the only thing I like about NPR

But I can't even listen to that as they are such unhinged leftists without regard to basic journalistic integrity.

I see it now:

Threesome of Roberts, Gorsuch, and Sotomayer confer privately to discuss "masks"? See why NPR won't back down in reporting this story.

As far as SCOTUS, there are multiple stories recently about various groups who are not happy with them on both sides. Progressives and regressives alike are unhappy with them for a variety of reasons. Google it. I’m not here to help you with your homework.

NPR is propaganda pushing an agenda.

How many times did the mainstream media push out an anonymous source that attacked Trump that ended up being hollow?

Why should I google something that I know is false, such as you non-original idea?

But anyway, when people post things, they usually provide a link and it would avoid posts such as mine.
Because what people like you say are so asinine, it begs to ask for a link to show you're wrong and you clearly said you're wrong.

Homework, why should I do home work or you original idea that does not exist?

Yeah, well it makes them look for worse than any shade they’ve cast on conservatives. I don’t think they realize how many moderates they’re alienating. ‘Echo chamber’ is cliche at this point, but, to use another cliche, if the shoe fits...

What on God’s green earth are you going on about? This isn’t about whether progressives and other groups are unhappy with SCOTUS, it’s about media lies. And if you’re trying to say the media is lying because they’re unhappy, then that just underscores the problem of their duplicitous behavior.

Damage control. As o previously stated, if you read through the thread before you posted.

It's NPR, they don't care about rationality. It's been an awfully long time since they even pretended to.
