    Sadly, NPR is nowhere near as unbiased as they used to be. I listened to it recently, and it’s just not good anymore. They engage in both sides whataboutism, only ask softball questions, and generally seem to toe the line of appearing neutral but not risking their corporate funding.

    Now, if they didn’t need corporate funding, that would be ideal. I believe that would lead to more unbiased reporting.

      So I haven’t seen any of what you are talking about, and I’m an avid consumer of NPR. I love that they generally avoid rage bait and present the news in a calm yet accurate manner.

      That being said, I am open to being persuaded if you can present some solid evidence.
