>I expected better from NPR

I know this is going to sound snarky, but I really am genuinely asking: why? They have a history of very blatantly pushing their political agenda, most people seem to acknowledge that NPR is pretty left leaning. This doesn't seem out of place for them at all.

I think it's the economics of attention post-social media. Old NPR was in depth, slow, boring, and wonderful. That does not play on Twitter.
