First off, Michael, if you don't see liberal bias in NPR, you're being
intellectually dishonest, because I know you're smart enough to recognize
it.

NPR was a great idea, and government grants were needed to get it off the
ground. Now, it can be heard pretty much anywhere in the USA.

Liberal bias at NPR springs from basically the same source you'll always see
from federal workers. Liberals like to grow government, and from the
federal worker (and federal funding) point of view, that's "good for the
company business." So, they cozy up to the liberal point-of-view.

However, as a conservative, I don't like my tax dollars supporting something
that I don't agree with. I have no problem with them being on the air -- I
just don't want to get the bill.

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been given some very notable
donations in the past couple of years, and the need for feeding at the
public trough has passed. One such donation was more than their entire
budget for a few years.

How about listening to NPR for at least a week while you take some notes
on the stories you think are examples of a liberal point of view. Then
we'll have something tangible to discuss on the subject of NPR and
liberalism. Otherwise it's just one more opinion on NPR without
documentation.
