Matt: An exceptional column. Among your best. I'd go further than hammering just NPR though. The Dems, especially through social media, are suppressing free speech. Remember the Wuhan Lab Theory that was not PERMITTED for a year (wish I could italicize)?! Or how the press refused to allow the Hunter Biden laptop story out from its suppression of the NY Post's story? There are speech codes on campuses and forced reeducation and struggle sessions--mostly directed at white people--under the name of "equity". I doubt there is one conservative or Republican who is in favor of speech codes. But to return to NPR: it has become well-nigh unlistenable. Thanks for taking the hit for me.
