I am "Lara" in this article's sense, and I love NPR. Being able to listen for any amount of time and still get news that I haven't heard before is nice. At the same time most of the segments I hear are interesting, heartwarming, or really sad. Nothing on NPR seems outdated, but maybe that's simply because I've grown up with it.

It's important to separate NPR from Public Radio. NPR, for most people, is Morning Edition and All Things Considered. A very significant amount of the schedule on most public radio stations is not NPR. Market research that this article references seems to suggest that the audience for NPR's broadcast material is aging.
