In reply to the discussion: NPR's Andrea Seabrook fed up with all the lies quits [View all]tomp
(9,512 posts)73. only three points of view? wow!
according to how i read your post, democrats are the truth. I don't think i'm stretching here--that's seems to be clearly what you are saying. and, that you accuse the poster you're responding to of "us-vs them" mentality is not just a little hypocritical. i can only suggest that you review american history a bit. it will not be hard to find democratic falseness.
at the very least, a large part of the truth is situated well to the left of the democratic party (which would make at least four points of view). and, there is an aspect of true conservatism that both parties have abandoned--the part where we actually "conserve," which could probably thought of as a fifth point of view. There are, trust me, more.

NPR was the mouthpiece of the culture of the upper middle class, before it turned right.

You equate talking points = truth. That's bogus. You are shooting the wrong messenger.

Impressive and gutsy stand. Hope she retains access and does not get blackballed by congress.

Thank Reagan for destroying the objective quality programing that used to be NPR.

I'd sure like to hear how a progressive's economic plan is as equally damaging as a Republican's.
