Well, maybe the conservatives are trying to play catchup with their
wildly successful liberal competition on NPR.

If NMPR is so successful, why is it that they need government funding for
100% of their operation? Contrast that to conservative talk radio, which
barely has enough time to fit in all the interested advertisers.

NPR is not 100% funded by payments from the government - the proportion
of government payments is a very small portion of their budget.

NPR is successful in the sense that it has a large audience because it
offers a wide range of programming that it's listeners want to hear.

And they are way more objective than an ad-supported company. My
Bircher Dad loved All Things Considered and Morning Edition. He was a
pretty fart smeller.



FYI: The John Birch Society has come put against the war in Iraq [3],
the Abramaff corruption [1], Bush's illegal wiretapping, the patriot
Act [4], and Bush's insistance on the legality of torture [2]
