Did anyone actually have a conversation about this topic?
i'm guessing not, because clickbait guy is so anti-free speech.
that said, i don't have any real objection to npr and other government-funded orgs being labeled 'government-funded' or 'state-affiliated media' or whatever -- because they are, right?
or maybe not. npr says they get less than 1% of their funding from uncle sam. what's the cutoff for the 'government-funded' label?
and as for them being state-affiliated -- does it matter if they are formally affiliated with the government -- i would guess getting funding from them means they are formally affiliated with them -- if they support the government's positions > 99% of the time anyways?
maybe just label them based on their adherence to the government's narrative?
"90%-Compliant with the Washington Consensus" ?
