The app for independent voices

Ugh. Awful. I used to listen to NPR every day but stopped by mid-2018. They used Trump's "good people on both sides" statement as proof that he was a racist, stated that they will call him a racist going forward and never looked back. When the fact checking came out about what was really said and in what context, they doubled down. I am not now, nor ever have been, a Trump supporter. Ever. But that sort of open bias championing was too much for me to stand any more. I used to believe if I wanted a straight story on something - especially if it was controversial - I'd go to NPR.

It's also worth noting that they managed to take swipes at Trump as well as inferring (implying?) that the populism that got him elected was at its core racist and homophobic.
