I would agree. I think it has run its course and has skirted the edges of what
is/is not acceptable.

Democracy: Two wolves and One sheep voting on what to have for dinner.
Republic: One well armed sheep inviting Two wolves to eat all the grass

Only in America would anyone suggest that NPR is biased progressive.

Why would you expect anything honest form newbies propaganda radio?
I listen to the irish music and retro rock on the local NPR station sometimes.
I'm going to quit listening to the weather on NPR, they predicted it
