Republican senator makes new push to defund NPR as whistleblower editor resigns
|
[NYPOST] Sen. Marsha Blackburn wants to end federal funding for National Public Radio after the resignation of a veteran editor following his suspension for publicly accused the outlet of espousing liberal bias.
“The mainstream media has become obsessed with doing the Left’s bidding and taking down strong conservatives — and NPR has led the pack,” Blackburn (R-Tenn.) told Fox News Digital in an interview published Wednesday.
“It makes no sense that the American people are forced to fund a propagandist left-wing outlet that refuses to represent the voices of half the country. NPR should not receive our tax dollars.”
Uri Berliner announced on social media Wednesday morning that he was leaving NPR, where he had worked for 25 years covering business news.
“I don’t support calls to defund NPR,” Berliner’s resignation statement read. “I respect the integrity of my colleagues and wish for NPR to thrive and do important journalism.
