I complained a couple years ago when all afternoon they were running some completely inane story about trump staff having problems finding light switches in the whitehouse and repeating it multiple times during the day.
Political coverage I can take and I doubt I liked trump any more than the reporters at NPR do, but that's just factionalism. I find it really problematic[1]. If there isn't anything relevant to report on, music (or dinosaurs) would do fine.
But I'm not a cute kid, so I didn't get a response. :D

- WalterBright 6y ago> having problems finding light switches On the other hand, all's good in the world when that's the problem requiring national attention!
- TheAdamAndChe 6y agoThat's the thing. There almost definitely were much more important things happening around the world, yet they talked about that. Most news organizations do the same thing, which is part of why people call them biased.
- Spooky23 6y agoNPR has a very formulaic editorial/programming approach. They pick a topic and grind it for a month. Personally, I can’t listen to them for more than a week before getting bored. Trump made that worse everywhere, of course.
- gnu8 6y agoI too find light switches in large and unfamiliar houses to be confusing. Of all the things Trump could be criticized for, I agree that this one is not fair.
