After 30+ Years, NPR Cancels Declaration of Independence Reading
Media Industry,Independence Day,Fourth Of July,NPR
The woke taxpayer-funded social justice warriors at National Public Radio ended a tradition started in 1988 on Monday, canceling the annual July Fourth reading of the Declaration of Independence and instead hosting more liberal thinkers in its broadcast echo chamber for a conversation on "equality."
"This July 4th we break with tradition," tweeted Morning Edition host Leila Fadel. Instead of reading the Declaration of Independence — as National Public Radio has done every Fourth of July for more than three decades — the broadcaster put on an America-bashing feature asking "on this July 4th, what does equality mean?"
