Well, first of all, that they are 1/1000000 of the news produced by mainstream sources.

In Europe they have a good market share, easily double digit.
Huh? Who in Europe listens to NPR?
They were presumably not referring to NPR specifically, but to public-service broadcasters in general, like ARD and ZDF in Germany, BBC in Britain, ORF in Austria, RAI in Italy, and so on.
Most of them (including BBC) are the same crap the article laments, RAI four times so.
I wasn't arguing editorial merit. This was about them having a large market share, which they do.
