NPR news

I grew up listening to npr. Npr was unlike the usual news reporting like fox ,cnn or msnbc which are all reporting extremely left or extremely right political views in everything tgey report. CNN is simply an extension of the federal government and reports whatever the government needs people to believe and provides very persuasive reporting in favor of everything our government does. Npr was different. I have been a listener for 44 years from infancy to my current day. I even supported the fundraisers but that has changed. Unfortunately, in my opinion and if you are a long time listener you’re noticing a big difference in the way npr reports the news in our current present day. Npr no longer provides balanced Un contaminated by government Minders who tell them what news to report.( it seems this way). Npr used to give you both sides of a story with no bias whatsoever and I really appreciated that they were a new source that was genuine and supported by the listener instead of corporate parasites whose money comes with an attachment for its host. These are not just my opinion. Look at how much they reported everything trump did as terrible yet they bow down and take a knee for Biden or Obama or bush junior. All part of the hood old boy system of politics and all the true terrorist in this country. ( sorry I’m giving my opinion but I’m not a reporter or journalist. Perhaps their new journalist at npr have no or little experience and don’t know how to keep their opinions from their reporting? I constantly find myself turning my radio off because it’s so bad. I can go fifteen minutes of npr without hearing how horrible republicans, white people, or people dissatisfied with their federal government are Npr reports the trucker strike in Canada from Tge view points of government making these citizens seem like the bad people. I find myself wondering what planet I’m on. I feel betrayed by npr. All I want is what npr has always been from my childhood to 2016. Npr has been hijacked and me and my coworkers and fellow students at my college are trying to find a news source that can replace npr. It was a unique trustworthy source of news and I’m so disappointed, sad even about the fact that I no longer have a news source that’s honest and unbiased. I suppose the Beijing Times os the closest thing I can find to honest these days. I really hope it changes and npr returns to its original formula for reporting the news. Thank you.
