NPR cheered when conservative media got targeted and when they came after them they're crying violation of freedom of press. You can't have the cake and eat it too.

Pray tell, can you point to the supposed cheering that NPR did for conservative media having it's legal rights violated?
Targeted in what way that was very likely illegal/corrupted? Gonna need to cite a source for your claims.
Who cares what NPR thinks? You're like one of those people who chooses their positions based on the opposite of what Trump said. How can you recognize NPR as illegitimate, yet give them control over you?

Pointing out hypocrisy is giving "them control over you"? TFA is posted on npr.org.

They didn’t point out any hypocrisy. At most you could say they made a strong claim conspicuously unsupported by evidence or even a clear statement about what they’re referring to. Actually pointing out hypocrisy would require both a specific claim and supporting evidence.
