Column: NPR Is National Public Relations for the War on Trump
Media Bias,Media Watch,Media Industry,NPR Bias
At the top of every hour, hundreds of taxpayer-subsidized National Public Radio stations in 50 states transmit leftist public relations, badly disguised as news. You can get talking points jammed in your ear on your rush-hour commute.
On the morning of February 20, NPR anchor Korva Coleman promoted an anti-Trump lawsuit, and notice there are no labels for the activists. They’re just for “civil rights.”
Coleman began: “Civil rights groups are suing the Trump administration over executive orders they call illegal. As NPR’s Sandhya Dirks reports, the Legal Defense Fund and Lambda Legal are suing on behalf of three nonprofits.”
Dirks continued this audio press release: “The nonprofits provide housing, work programs and medical care to black, queer, and trans communities. The lawsuit claims the Trump administration, by banning anything it labels diversity, equity, inclusion, and trans people violates the right to free speech and due process and prevents the nonprofits from helping those disproportionately impacted by systemic racism and bigotry.”
