NPR’s New CEO Sits on Board of Soros-Funded Activist Group that Pushes for Censorship
CC
In a grim indicator of how news will be covered on taxpayer dime, the new head of the government-funded National Public Radio (NPR) is on the board of a leftwing activist organization called Center for Democracy and Technology that pushes for censorship and receives funding from George Soros’ Open Society Foundations. Her name is Katherine Maher, a former Wikimedia Foundation CEO, with liberal views publicly expressed throughout the years in her social media posts. In 2018, she called former President Donald Trump a racist in a post that has since been deleted, according to a mainstream newspaper report. A couple of years ago Maher shared a photo of herself in a “President Biden” campaign hat. In a 2021 video clip the new NPR chief describes the First Amendment as the top challenge in the fight against disinformation, a fictitious crisis created by the Biden administration to control information.

Maher takes over at NPR as a longtime NPR editor, Uri Berliner, reveals that liberal bias has altered the public radio network’s coverage in recent years, resulting in errors on major stories such as the Hamas attacks in Israel, Hunter Biden’s laptop scandal and COVID-19. “It’s true NPR has always had a liberal bent, but during most of my tenure here, an open-minded, curious culture prevailed,” Berliner, a 25-year NPR veteran wrote in a recently published essay. “We were nerdy, but not knee-jerk, activist, or scolding. In recent years, however, that has changed. Today, those who listen to NPR or read its coverage online find something different: the distilled worldview of a very small segment of the U.S. population. An open-minded spirit no longer exists within NPR, and now, predictably, we don’t have an audience that reflects America. That wouldn’t be a problem for an openly polemical news outlet serving a niche audience. But for NPR, which purports to consider all things, it’s devastating both for its journalism and its business model.” Berliner confirms that race and identity have become paramount in nearly every aspect of the workplace and journalists are required to ask everyone they interview about race, gender, and ethnicity.

A few days ago, Berliner, a senior business editor, resigned, citing Maher’s response to his recent exposé. In an email to the radio network’s new CEO, Berliner wrote: “I am resigning from NPR, a great American institution where I have worked for 25 years. I respect the integrity of my colleagues and wish for NPR to thrive and do important journalism. But I cannot work in a newsroom where I am disparaged by a new CEO whose divisive views confirm the very problems at NPR I cite in my Free Press essay.” NPR and its new chief declined to comment publicly but the network’s news executive, Edith Chapin, wrote a memo to employees saying that inclusion among staff, sourcing and overall coverage is critical to telling the nuanced stories of this country and our world.

It's one thing to argue against sending money to Ukraine, but it's quite another to argue that Vladimir Putin is some sort of hero to be admired by the right.
Putin is basically an authoritarian thug. His KGB past should have been a red flag as was his comment about the collapse of the Soviet Union being the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century.
Anybody in the SU who stands up to Putin ends up in prison or dead.

Joe will be able to ship even more money to foreignersd and import more foreigners to live in standards indigenous Americans can't hope to live in, (living on the streets).  Utopia, fight likew hell for more of this in the coming election then play the innocent ignorant fools.  You know like yu already have been  Its working so damn well, eh?
 

When elitist imbeciles rule!  Superior AND dumber!

We Won't Live By Your Wokeness
By Patty Knap

A young woman who came to the pregnancy center where I work shared this story with me. She had a pediatrician appointment for her baby girl last week. She brought her infant, dressed all in pink, into the doctor's office. After stating the baby's female name, the doctor asked, "So, have you decided what gender you're assigning to this child?"

She was stunned. She said she just stood there until the word "female" came out of her mouth.

This wasn't the first time I've heard this line of questioning in a pediatrician's office. A friend told me her daughter was asked the same thing on her first visit to the doctor's office with their infant son.

The question, "gender assigned at birth" is now on many medical forms. A man I know was at a new doctors' office and the paperwork included an entire page on "gender identity." He wrote male, crossed off everything else on the page and wrote "I don't participate in the gender craze."

Pecker says most Arnold Schwarzenegger payments were between $500 and $2K
By Kyle Schnitzer

Under redirect, where the prosecution gets to question its witness a second time, after the defense's cross-examination, David Pecker said that most of his payments to bury bad stories about Arnold Schwarzenegger were between $500 and $2,000 — but never anything close to $150,000.

"Did you spend anything close to $150,000 to suppress a story for Arnold Schwarzenegger's campaign?" Manhattan ADA Joshua Steinglass asked.

"No," Pecker replied.

Pecker said that the most he had ever spent to suppress one of Schwarzenegger's stories was $20,000.
