NPR is universally denounced by the American right as leftist/Democratic Party propaganda. Also PBS.
This is a meaningless distinction when those in the American right also make claims that Fox News is too liberal.
Including: Six viewers who spoke with The Post mentioned a transfer of power to “the sons,” whom they said were “liberal.”

- krapp 5y agoFair point, but they've always hated NPR.
- masswerk 5y agoHowever, quite paradoxically, the same kind of people are happy with living along 'communist' streets, instead of insisting on them becoming privately owned toll roads. I guess, there's still hope. Edit: Meaning, as long as we are social animals, information is infrastructure. And there seems to be still a place for public infrastructure that is not contested.
- rhacker 5y ago> those in the American right also make claims that Fox News is too liberal. So if 1 person says Fox news is too left, then it's impossible to say "NPR is universally denounced by the American right as leftist/Democratic Party propaganda" That's a bit overreaching argument that doesn't follow.
- dfxm12 5y agoWell, it's a good thing that's not my argument, then.
