NPR quits Twitter over state affiliated label

[Nemesis]

Weird cos as a regular pretty much daily listener of NPR none of what you said is accurate.

I listen to NPR occasionally. They repeat Democrat talking points and ridicule or ignore other viewpoints.

I have never heard a kind word about Trump or his supporters.

Feel free to point out examples to prove me wrong.

NPR is firmly left.

Not sure how so many who do not listen to NPR know what their biases are perhaps its the posters biases showing. .

I have mentioned this several times, but in the mid noughties several times a week NPR would dedicate prime time programming to not only report on those who had lost their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan but to do a detailed report on where they came from, why they joined, talked about them as a father, brother, son etc and got input from family and friends.

No other news outlet was doing anything remotely similar especially not conservative talk radio.

Not sure what the mid noughties means, but as far as honing in on people who were killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, of course they would. For the same reason they honed in on Cindy Sheehan when Bush was President but dumped her as soon as Obama became President. Or for the same reason every single Covid death was a tragedy under Trump but pretty much put in the background when Biden became President.

I’ve listened to NPR before. I Know they slant hard left.

Those who think not are probably even farther left than NPR.

Never said they did not have a left slant but they do a dam better job of giving different perspectives on a story than any other US media.

The hard news side for sure.

The individual programs (On the Media, Wait, Wait) are pretty Lefty though.

You might want to look into Jodi Kantor who investigated the claims and was instrumental in exposing Weinstein also Nyt published a huge story in Oct 17 which got the ball rolling.
Who else do you think exposed him and had their facts straight when they did.

Harvey Weinstein was just sentenced to 23 years in prison. Here's a timeline...

What I was referring to.

Chinese, Iranian, and Russian State Propaganda Outlets Lose...

On a whim. It’s just all so stupid.

[Imel]

You said “you can’t seriously be praising the press for this” and then post an article that shows how instrumental they were.
Real newspapers don’t publish a story like that unless they have all the facts.
The press were also instrumental in exposing Epstein too.

Exposing Epstein, oh my sides, where is the client list?

[RTchoke]

Yeah, that’s quite a story.

Yeah, that’s quite a story.

Exposed his fascination with self strangulation during mysterious camera outages. owu

Exactly who was Ag and Pres at the time who also happened to be a friend and whose Ag’s father gave him his first job.
Things that make you go hmmmm

You think I care which party did it? Looked like a joint effort to me.

[Imel]

Well you did ask where is the client list and it sure is a mystery.

Who do you think currently has said client list? Is it Trump? How does that work?

[Imel]

And I know as a Trump supporter you probably won’t acknowledge that whole thing was shady as hell considering the connections of Barr and Trump to Epstein.

[Imel]

Dealt with by Ag and my guess is no one will ever have it as it is gone.

Poof, wash your hands, monster. To be blunt.

[Imel]

Sorry I don’t understand your response apologies! but considering that info could have brought down the Royal family and connections to the current pres and ag it makes sense.

[Oldandtired]

More like the connections to the Clintons. People seem to die when they have connections to the Clintons and might talk about the Clintons shady dealings.

Are you for real? For real real?

[Imel]

But he died on Trumps watch and Barrs father gave Epstein his first job.
