NPR member stations get some money from the Corporation For Public Broadcasting, which is funded by the federal gov't. NPR itself gets less than they do. According to Wikipedia, 1.5% of its funding is from CPB.

The member stations also get tax deductions, grants from federal/state/local government as well as grants from government funded universities. This is from a (clearly) slanted source, but their numbers seem above-board: http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/10/how_public_is_nprs_funding.html http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/10/how_public_is_nprs_fu...
