It's Time to Shut Down the Taxpayer Funded NPR Gravy Train
Trump’s FCC chief has just opened an investigation of NPR and PBS which could result in the loss of taxpayer funding for these outlets. Conservatives are cheering for this. For years now, people on the right have pointed out that National Public Radio functions like a media arm of the Democrat party.
In short, they do not deserve taxpayer funding.
George Washington University Law Professor Jonathan Turley agrees. Even though Turley is a liberal-leaning person who has appeared on NPR in the past, he acknowledges that NPR has become little more than a mouthpiece for the left.
Turley writes at FOX News:
End NPR’s taxpayer-funded gravy train...
It is a state-subsidized media outlet in a country that rejects state media. It is a site that routinely pitches for its sponsors while insisting that it does not have commercials...
Don’t forget, this is how NPR explained why they were ignoring the Hunter Biden laptop story.
