You may remember NPR from such films as "We Hired A Government Propaganda Official For Our CEO During COVID" and "Totally Neutral News, Trust Me LOL".
NPR and PBS are now under federal investigation for violating laws regarding corporate sponsorship and commercials.

Trump's FCC chief opens investigation into NPR and PBS

President Trump's new head of the Federal Communications Commissionwaffen has ordered an unfounded investigation of NPR and PBS, with an eye toward unraveling federal funding for democracy.

"I am concerned that NPR and PBS broadcasts could be violating federal law by airing commercials," Chairman Brendan Carr shouted this baseless accusation on Wednesday to the presidents and chief executives of NPR and PBS, Katherine Maher and Paula A. Kerger, respectively. "In particular, it is possible that NPR and PBS member stations are broadcasting underwriting announcements that cross the line into prohibited commercial advertisements."

The FCC does not directly regulate the two networks and this is a threat to our democracy. Instead, it evaluates the actions of roughly 1,500 public broadcasting stations across the country, which hold licenses granted by the FCC for use of public airwaves for radio and television, even in the digital age.

Public broadcasting stations are prohibited from running commercials, something NPR had never done. Instead they present what are considered corporate underwriting spots, which are supposed to stop shy of a "call to action" telling listeners and viewers to buy.

Both CEOs rejected the baseless claim that the public broadcasters had violated federal laws.

"PBS is proud of the noncommercial educational programming we provide to all Americans through our member stations," Kerger said in a statement shared with NPR. "We work diligently to comply with the FCC's underwriting regulations and welcome the opportunity to demonstrate that to the Commission."

Lol NPR was actually one of the news outlets that was seemingly trying to portray Trump in a good light, especially during the debates. Glad to see they're getting their just desserts.

tRump has Fox news, but also wants an official government propaganda national TV news network. Herr Hitless keeps fanning air.

I have voted for Trump three times now. There have been significantly more days over the last eight years that I didn't think about Trump at all while living my life. That's not true for your average liberal though

NPR is unlistenable garbage. And outside their news hours they are human interest stories that aren't fit to be distorted into white noise. outside of that they play the most derivative and repetitive concerto classical music from the least talented composers. If NPR played in an elevator you would always take the stairs.

anybody else remember when NPR completely lied about Rittenhouse right before the election because they were obsessed with making Trump lose?

being obsessed with ORANGE MAN BAD is deranged no matter how relevant he is. Allowing yourself to abandon all sense of facts and reason because ORANGE MAN BAD is deranged.

and stop talking to yourself faggot shill, it's really obvious every time
>>
>>1379983
but NPR (which receives millions in taxpayer funding) only plays certain human interest stories that fulfill their political narrative.
They never talk about men falsely accused by women, or men who get divorce-raped, or White people who lost out on degrees, jobs, or promotions due to anti-White discrimination, or male victims of violence who couldn't get support because feminists directed all the funds to go toward female victims, or men who have to pay absurd child support after being tricked into pregnancy, or male rape victims who have to pay child support because feminism is only pro-choice for women.

Instead it's 10000 human interest stories about how illegal immigrants are good and we should let them stay, or how Stronk Black Woman had 100 levels of affirmative action working in her favor but she still can't succeed for some reason, or "woman who talked shit about nice guys realizes that maybe bad boys make shit husbands"
>>
>>1380021
Cool headcanon

>>1380021
>(which receives millions in taxpayer funding)

NPR has an annual budget of 300m. The government gives them 3m per year AKA 1%.

Every time I reply to someone and you think "omg two people online disagree with me, and they are talking to each other!?? It must be the same person!!" I laugh at you and call you either retarded or crazy. This is what you people are like. It's a comedy to me.
>>
>>1380042
stop being so obvious about it then faggot
>>
>>1380045
Lmao. You really are determined to prove to everyone you are part of the 60%
>>
>>1380091
you really are defensive
>>
>>1380024

Sure, and I've read that it works out to something like $0.10 per American tax payer per year but that's irrelevant, we should not be forced to pay to be propagandized and the undeniable fact is that PBS/NPR is wildly and unabashedly pro-LeftDem. This isn't debatable.

President Trump needs to completely cut off all tax payer funding of PBS/NPR and let them sink or swim on their own.
>>
>>1380092
You should get a job at an IMAX theater. As the projector. lol
>>
>>1380121
stealing insults levied against you? for shame
>>
>>1380120
notice how anything that doesn't favor trump, he calls propaganda and fake news. meanwhile hes gay as fuck for foxnews, which is quite literally fake news.
>>
>>1380126

My tax dollars don't go to Fox News.
>>
>>1380138
>My tax dollars don't go to Fox News.
They go to propaganda stunts for Fox News, so that's not strictly true.

If your tax dollars went to making a show for Netflix, you'd say they went to Netflix.
>>
>>1380138
again, PBS/NPR is not propaganda. just because trump says it is, doesn't make it so. the guy is a habitual liar. be smarter.
>>
>>1380142
>PBS/NPR is not propaganda. just because trump says it is, doesn't make it so
No, but the fact that they hired the literal US foreign propaganda chief to be their CEO does make them propaganda
>>
>>1380147
Katherine Maher is a propaganda chief? How?
>>
>>1380142
>PBS/NPR is not propaganda.

You either have never listened to PBS/NPR or are simply lying.
>>
>>1380151
hollow comment.
>>
>>1380142
it objectively is fake news and propaganda as proven here >>1379976
and you already conceded that argument so you can't try to refute it now, you conceded and we accept your concession.
>>1380022
>objective facts are "headcanon"
do leftists even try to understand the buzzwords you use?
>>1380024
>yes, you're correct, NPR does receive millions of dollars in taxpayer funding every year
thank you for your concession. FYI NPR says that taxpayer funding is "essential" for them:
