    Default Re: Save NPR!

    WNYC is publicly funded. NPR is a fee based news service, don't let them fool you. They charge small stations to carry their programs. Maybe they don't have "profits", but that doesn't mean they arn't money hungry and that they don't compromise themselves.

    Listen to everything as long as it doesn't sound overtly biased (ie; russia today, Fox news, MSNBC). MSNBC seems to be coming out of its insanity by producing Lawrence O'Donnell, supporting shows like "Morning Joe" and firing scumbags like Olberman. Read blogs, listen to local radio, watch real-ish tv news, go to newsites. When you rely on one source of information you will be brainwashed.

    "That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's cottage is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there."
    -Eric "George Orwell" Blair

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
    (Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, 1861).
