NPR is sounding like Fox News Radio this morning

[Pryderi]

Judd Gregg, HCR being unconstitutional, rejoicing by some rethug about the disbanding of ACORN...I'm going to reconsider my membership.

1. Too often NPR sounds more right leaning than presenting the facts.

When it comes to their money begging fund raisers they might want to consider how much comes from Democrats and Progressives and how much comes from the Right Wing, the bunch which would like to shut down NPR and PBS.

2. Just contact the ombudsman; I've already done it.

I agree wholeheartedly that the Morning Reporter (Can't recall the woman's name) just let Gregg ramble through the GOP talking points and didn't do much, if any, interviewing.

On edit: In fact Gregg might have gone on over the next segment if the woman hadn't had to interrupt him (Twice, at least) to tell him they were out of time.

But instead of cancelling your NPR station membership, send a message to the ombudsman. Here's the contact form. Don't forget to indicate which show you were listening to (in this case, Morning Edition) and tell them how to pronounce your name.

4. my wife and I stopped contributing to NPR 9 months ago.

we were supporters for over 10 years.

they've become FOX Lite.

6. I gave up on NPR..

.... years ago. They are not liberal, progressive or anything else. They are just more lying-by-omission main stream media.

7. Uh-huh... everyone who doesn't think like you is a FAUX lover

got it.

[YOY]

8. I've heard Limbaugh defended one day. Don't know who was doing it but it was pathetic.

Limbaugh makes enough money to defend himself.

9. How is this different from any other day?

It isn't much different from hate radio where I am.

10. IRN (Radio Network) this morning was still pimping the pimping story...

...as having "discredited" ACORN, without mentioning that it was a hoax.

11. i listen for car talk and you bet your garden...
