NPR is state run?
- basch 7y agomade by congress, publicly funded, stations owned by public universities. ownership wise, its a lot like pbs.
- 0xffff2 7y agoNo, it's not. Most of NPR's funding comes from member stations paying dues. Most of the money funding member stations comes from individual donations. A relatively small proportion of funding does come from government grants, but it's misleading to say that NPR is "state funded" (implying complete or majority funding form the state), much less state run.
