ASMA ATTACK! NPR Reporter Rips Elon Musk as a Killer Across Networks
Over the weekend, NPR White House reporter Asma Khalid appeared on PBS, NPR, and ABC hammering away at Elon Musk as "the world's richest man" taking a hatchet to the U.S. Agency for International Development, which is automatically associated with the poor, so Musk will "increase starvation rates." He's a killer.

NPR Weeps Over Federal Workers Having to Go Into Work Five Days a Week
A taxpayer-funded sob story about federal workers being cruelly required to return to work at (gasp!) the office every single day aired earlier this week on National Public Radio’s show Morning Edition, headlined “Trump wants federal workers back the office, meaning longer days and added expenses.” But the single example offered wasn't exactly the stuff of a…

NPR Helps MSNBC's Chris Hayes Trash Trump, 'Attention Capitalism'
NPR doesn't exist to promote books by Fox News hosts, but they're an easy mark for MSNBC personalities. Rachel Maddow count on it. On January 27, Morning Edition host Steve Inskeep awarded seven minutes to All In host Chris Hayes to promote his new book The Sirens' Call, mourning "the assault of attention capitalism."

NPR Relishes Using 'Criminal' and 'Convicted Felon' in Trump Coverage
Taxpayer-funded National Public Radio relished describing Donald Trump with words "criminal" and "convicted" and especially a “convicted felon.” Friday’s sentencing in New York offered a golden opportunity. On Friday’s All Things Considered, anchor Juana Summers and reporter Andrea Bernstein used “convicted” five times to thrill their leftist audience. On Friday morning? Six times.…

NPR Paints HHS Trans Activist as a Victim of 'Anti-Trans Politics'
Transgender Rachel Levine, Assistant Secretary of Health and Human Services under Biden, is a biological man who makes a not-terribly convincing woman. But even after an election where such reality denial on the left was firmly rejected by voters, taxpayer-funded National Public Radio continues to play along in a very one-sided fashion as Levine pushes "gender-affirming care" for minors.

NPR Closed Out Campaign by Hyping Wives Secretly Voting for Kamala
Taxpayer-funded NPR underlined how firmly it's on Team Kamala by airing a story on Monday's Morning Edition hyping the notion that women were secretly voting for Kamala despite their pig-headed Trump-backing husbands. The headline was "Meet the conservative women who are keeping their votes for Kamala Harris a secret." Never mind that if they're voting for her, they're not…

NPR Media Reporter Connects Trump Laments to 'Pogroms' Against Jews
NPR media reporter David Folkenflik appeared on Weekend Edition Saturday to discuss how “even after being debunked, fringe ideas and lies can still become major campaign themes.” That meant it was a Trump segment, and Folkenflik suggested Trump's complaints about Jewish voters suggest something "Jews have experienced over the decades and centuries, certain kinds of targeting and…

Column: When The Media Can't Find a Left-Wing Label for Kamala Harris
Before the debate, ABC's evening newscast never described Kamala Harris with an ideological label since Biden was forced out. One way that liberal journalists put a protective bubble around their candidate is to pretend she’s somehow above ideology. It's just an attack coming from Donald Trump and J.D. Vance, and therefore it’s just negative advertising, not news.

NPR Pundit: Harris Did Fine on CNN Because Conservatives Trashed Bash
On their regular "Week In Politics" chat on NPR’s Weekend Edition Saturday, host Scott Simon asked NPR senior Washington correspondent Ron Elving how Kamala Harris and Tim Walz performed in their sit-down CNN interview. Elving said you knew they were fine because conservatives trashed CNN and Dana Bash after it aired.

SHOOT? NPR Airs Kinzinger Comparing Trump to Enemy in Trench Warfare
Leftist media outlets like National Public Radio may not have forgotten entirely about the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, but it doesn’t enter their brains when “Republicans for Harris” compare Trump to an enemy in mortal combat. In this case, it’s Pelosi-Picked Panelist Adam Kinzinger.

Cozy! NPR Books Klobuchar To Praise ‘Optimistic’ and ‘Thoughtful’ Walz
Taxpayer-funded National Public Radio hosted Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) on Morning Edition with A Martinez. The whole interview was dedicated to praising “thoughtful” and “optimistic” Democratic Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota, who Kamala Harris chose to be her running mate on Monday.

NPR Treats Hunter's Verdict as Less Vital Than Alito, Secretly Taped
On taxpayer-funded National Public Radio, All Things Considered has an online listing of story order. Hunter Biden's verdict was #9! Guess what was #1: Sam Alito. “Secret audio raises new questions about Supreme Court Justice's impartiality.”

NPR: Columbia Agitators' 'Intifada' Chant Just an 'Anti-Israel Slogan'
National Public Radio has picked sides in the Israel-Hamas war, supporting the students/terrorist supporters camping on the quads of progressive colleges campuses. This is how NPR’s Up First newsletter (a summary of what NPR considers the must-know stories of the day) on Wednesday morning described the illegal occupation by pro-Hamas agitators at Columbia University: NPR's…

Column: NPR Morning Star Lamely Swats at Their Suspended Dissident
National Public Radio senior editor Uri Berliner has been suspended for his unauthorized critique of the insular liberal bias of his network. NPR star and Morning Edition host Steve Inskeep took to his Substack blog to slam Berliner’s article as “filled with errors and omissions.” Inskeep did a lot of omitting himself.
