As you know I do read progressive news sources and since I get the same stuff from them, there is little reason to waste my time listening to NPR.<br /><br />Also as I pointed out, in this day and age if you cannot get your message out, you simply aren't trying hard enough. No more funding for any of that stuff, it simply isn't necessary.Clifton Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00273941007555823028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-63150648407748497012010-11-19T09:42:51.986-05:002010-11-19T09:42:51.986-05:00I feel you, Brother Clifton, about the gamesmanshi...I feel you, Brother Clifton, about the gamesmanship.

Then he or she will likely have some friends or family on the payroll at good salaries. Then the rest of the employees get paid peanuts.<br /><br />Btw, make sure you look at 'total compensation' because they do employ the trick of taking only about half of their total as salary. That way when their salary is reported, it doesn't reveal just how much they do siphon from donors contributions.your palnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-48066248961825734182010-11-19T01:21:41.550-05:002010-11-19T01:21:41.550-05:00I used to listen to NPR and local "public&quo...I used to listen to NPR and local "public" radio quite a lot, even then, I still thought funding part of NPR's program using tax payer money is a crazy. <br /><br />The local WNYC asked for money every single season, and I stopped listening to them after they spent 45 MILLION DOLLARS buying another radio station [WQXR], that's right after they spent gosh knows how much listener donated money moving into a new multi-level studio in lower Manhattan.<br /><br />I used to listen to NPR's program "Market Place," their solution to every economic situation is to have an "economist" come on and say the best way to solve any issue is to have "efficient regulations" to "protect consumers."<br /><br />NPR was literally wetting each other with champagne when Obamacare passed.<br /><br />NPR had became a socialist, leftist movement radio, and I for one, think it's crazy that 10 percent of their funding comes from stealing tax payer's money and calling themselves "public."<br /><br />I am so glad Republicans are bringing this scam into attention.<br /><br />2nd AnonyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
