[QUOTE="Box Ox, post: 5882955, member: 48469"] Out today. Good read: [URL='https://www.thefp.com/p/npr-editor-how-npr-lost-americas-trust']I’ve Been at NPR for 25 Years. Here’s How We Lost America’s Trust. | The Free Press (thefp.com)[/URL] [I]Uri Berliner, a veteran at the public radio institution, says the network lost its way when it started telling listeners how to think.[/I] [HR][/HR] "I fit the NPR mold. I’ll cop to that. So when I got a job here 25 years ago, I never looked back. As a senior editor on the business desk where news is always breaking, we’ve covered upheavals in the workplace, supermarket prices, social media, and AI. It’s true NPR has always had a liberal bent, but during most of my tenure here, an open-minded, curious culture prevailed. We were nerdy, but not knee-jerk, activist, or scolding. In recent years, however, that has changed. Today, those who listen to NPR or read its coverage online find something different: the distilled worldview of a very small segment of the U.S. population. If you are conservative, you will read this and say, duh, it’s always been this way. But it hasn’t." [/QUOTE]
