NPR’s President Claimed With A Straight Face Her Outlet Wasn’t Biased. Here’s 5 Times NPR Was Shamelessly Political
Despite years of flip flopping on their own reports, National Public Radio (NPR) CEO Katherine Maher told Congressional lawmakers Wednesday — without hesitation — that the outlet is a “nonpartisan organization” free from political bias.
Maher testified before the House Oversight Subcommittee regarding NPR’s government funding, working alongside the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to address wasteful spending. When pressed by Republican Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan on whether she believed the outlet was biased, Maher denied ever seeing political bias influence editorial decisions, insisting NPR has remained “nonpartisan.”
