NPR's fascination with and fetishization of race is sad to see. The fact that they list the 1619 Project (an ahistoric and well debunked project) as a "book we love" was all I needed to see. The mask fell off and the leftist/wokeism bias is on full display.

- HNTA_1 5y agoEverything has bias. What's wrong with an alt-right bias? Isn't a complaint of bias in itself a bias? A publicly funded media arm having an ideological bias is scary.

No, there are left, center, and right sides of the political spectrum. >A consequence of how one measures it? No. You can objectively measure these things regardless of where you personally lie on the political spectrum. There's literally a science behind this: political science [0] [0] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_science https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_science
- foofoo4u 5y agoMy top concern about its bias is how overtly biased a publicly funded radio station is with its embrace of wokeism — an ideology that is overwhelmingly unpopular with the public.
