"Know your enemy" is a stategy I grew up with.
Dad used to tune in Radio Berlin during WWII and I listened to Radio Moscow during the Cold War. Both are now silent, so I drop in on NPR and PBS from time to time. |

Must have been a relief to find a gay couple raising foster kids.
A lot easier than finding a heart warming Father's day story down on MLK Boulevard.

This might be a story they highlighted about the Juan who is transgender... Juan identifies as as a woman and calls herself Maria. While in his role as Maria, 'she' met and fell in love with John. John started out in life as Michelle, but now identifies as a man and calls himself John... This is why we need to teach Algebra in schools, so we know how to "Solve for X." |

Every child deserves an mother and a father.
The left has a term for this: normalizing. If you just keep repeating the same "truth" again and again, people will come to accept it as the way it is. Kids will spend the rest of their lives searching for their birth-moms just to ask the question - why? |

I watch because nothing else on, and I see through their B.S and I know I won't be brainwashed. And I can at least debate the lies a lefty may think is truth. I don't think ignoring the problem fixes anything. |

Government funding is something like only 10% of their budget. Wouldn't make a difference. They would just ramp up the begging for donations to make up any difference.
Used to be a time when NPR was interesting to listen to... Now they beat the Tranny=good, Trump=the worst, drum louder and more feverishly than anyone else in the biz. And they do it in the most irritating and condescending way possible. |

The morning show is not so bad - yes all the gay/everything is racism/everybody-is-a-recovering-gay-drug-addict-screwed-by-limited-government funding-but-they-have-a-transsexual-poodle thing DOES get old. But on some topics they provide decent analysis that is missing on the regular bullshit media. It's a little hard to take them seriously as "the enemy" when their bias is so awkward and obvious. If you want to hate the media for twisting things - focus on the large networks/Fox and CNN.

NPR Story Corps: " In honor of Father's Day" presented the tale of Juan and his husband caring for foster children. 
I seriously can't stop laughing after reading this. They try so fucking hard to be Liberal that it's absolutely ridiculous. 
And why can't they ever see the comedy that they create? They go as far as they know how, to reach the absolute end of the ideological spectrum to find their talking points and then try to pass it off as normal, middle of the road, common place, slice of life, everyone can relate, serious issues. Not only does the Left do it with straight faces, but if anyone does get caught not taking it as seriously as they have deemed appropriate, they automatically and preemptively lose any debate that can be had on the subject matter. |

Quoted:
Supply and demand dictates a more pragmatic approach. Especially with the rise of opioid abuse. Most offing themselves with opioids are young/single/childless. The opioid epidemic isn't some binary issue with otherwise good parents dropping dead from an overdose. It's constant arrests, visits from DCS, and eventual removal from the home. To make matters even less clear, DCS goal is preservation of the family, even if that means removing the child from a stable foster environment and returning the child to the neglectful parent[s]. It's an already strained system, where some states are now seeing 15-20% year to year increases in children entering the system - something that is outpacing the pool of available traditional families - so the system has to move beyond that pool. |

LOL. The hard hitting journalism of NPR this morning reported on the congressional baseball game without mentioning the shooter was a Bernie volunteer, and that the convicts down south were captured without mentioning that an armed citizen captured them. They did however mention that law enforcement was investigating gunshots that occurred during the capture.
They sure do dig deep over there at National Public Radio. |

My current game with NPR is to listen up to the point where they do some sort of racists/sexist/religious preferences identity reference. So I listen to them when they discuss stories that affect us all, regardless of race/sex/religion - up to the point that they then bring up a identity division item. In general, I get about 60 seconds in, before they fail this game. And then I turn them off.
It's kind of impressive how uniform they are their division based messaging. I then switch to conservative talk radio and listen for as long as they go before an advertisement or shill-advertisement announcement. In general, they don't last any longer than NPR does in this game. I'm probably going to wear out my dial if I keep this up. |

I TRY so hard to like NPR. But it's impossible. EVERYTHING is about gays and racism or Muslims. A coworker and I would make bets about how they were going to twist a completely unrelated story into something about racism. There was some woman doing a history of tap dancing, and sure as shit apparently tap dancing is racist. A couple days ago there was something about iconic pink donut boxes from Los Angeles, and our local affiliate had a story about black people making the best donuts and how white people tried to keep them out of the donut business. My favorite was a completely innocuous piece about a guy who wrote a "cooking on a budget" book. By the end of it... guess what? His black grandmother wasn't allowed to eat at white restaurants or work, so she had to develop these recipes! Blah blah blah. Shut the fuck up. Some of the other shows have some good segments. But we have one down here called "The state of things" and holy fuck, that guy is an ignorant, stupid, hateful, politically biased motherfucker. I have to turn it off. Can't listen to that dickweed anymore. |
