NPR: hosers

[Magneto]

I have been stunned at NPR, since about September. It is almost palpable how corrupt they are. I have been a pretty dedicated listener for about fifteen years, and have felt that they've consistently done a better job than Fox (not hard), CNN and the big three networks.

NPR is avoiding Ron Paul like the plague, especially in their main news programs. They engineer their phrases and twist their sentences to keep from even saying his name. If they can't avoid it, then they pepper their verbage with things like, "even Ron Paul is picking up some votes" or "very distant second". They've gone on and on about Clinton's fundraising, and then RP's $6m day got a scrap of a blip of mention. They resort to the usual drivel, "Ron Paul, the long shot." Amazing.

So what are the chances of getting enough documentation together to submit to the National Endowment for the Arts - a governmental supporter of NPR via the Corporation for Public Broadcasting?

I mean, most know that NPR tilts left some - listening to this bias for this long has tipped me strongly right. But a government sponsored and now-big-time news organization that is purposely withholding a significant candidate's news and information from the electorate?

I suspect they fear his libertarian bias and what he will do with the National Endowment for the Arts. It would be especially cool if we could pre-emptively pull the plug on that portion of their funding - and in a public way.

It's strange how the media on the left, right, and middle seem determined to stop Ron Paul from getting any kind of recognition.

NPR=\ Faux=/ a new shorthand

I listened to NPR (and donated) for years. It was on my radio both to and from work.

But since they've completely ignored Paul short of that piece on Paul and the newsletters, I've stopped listening to them, stop donations, and have talked to my friends and family to stop donating and listening.

You "donate" to NPR via your taxes whether you want to or not. So just bend over and enjoy the stimulating conversation while you're being boned.

We must organize and put together a website and donations for billboards nationwide to wake up the sheeple. The media must be taken on first or there will be no future for any honest candidate for future office.

www.AmericasBagdadBobs.org thats right .org, it needs to receive tax free status and support.

I suggest we continually put this tag on all of them, this would be something the public would understand.

Each billboard would have a pic of the offending news reader, in a Bagdad bob costume with there fake quote and then the website in big letters. The website would be video's showing their lies and censorship.

"Bagdad Sean"​

"Bagdad Luntz"​

"Bagdad O'Riely"​

Americans are a proud bunch, once this sinks in, they will feel ashamed and then the feces will hit the oscillating cooling device.

NPR typically has the most fair coverage of the issues in the MSM. They have severely let me down over this campaign in regards to RP. I am no longer going to donate and I have let them know why.

Strange, isn't it? If we want the media's attention, we earn it, with a big victory. Most people do not sit around talking about Dr. Ron Paul every day, all day long... like we do.

If Dr. Paul wins some States and jumps into first or second place his name would be everywhere! The media loves shock stories...

I have to completely agree...I've only been an NPR listener for about a year, but lately they really do go out of there way to avoid saying his name.

In fact, on MANY occassions over the last 2 months or so I've heard comentators or coraspondents mention RP and had the reporter on the other end COMPLETELY change the subject or just pretend he didn't just hear that name. I've heard reporters hear a comment about RP and suddenly start talking about Romney, completely out of context.

It absolutely BIZARRE.

I think it's hilarious. NPR has never been a friend to the ideals of libertarianism or principled conservativism. They are run by, for, and of government. Who pays their bills?

I tend to think they are a bit concerned about the whole newsletter scandal. Before that, he got waaay more coverage. Not to say that it was remotely fair, but Blitzer, Caferty, Stossel, Will, Carlson and Scarbourogh all metioned RP or had him on the show and generally treated him fairly..(arguably), after that newsletter thing broke I dont know if it gave them an excuse or what.

Now we get nothing. Maher has nothing to say even.

Dunno.
