Which has absolutely nothing to do with it being state funded or not. It can be funded by the government and still fairly unbiaised. Why hide it? It's fine to be state funded, as long as the public is aware
Agreed with both of you actually. I enjoy NPR and I certainly agree that it allows for both sides at times. However, it is a fact it is state funded (it is in the name) and I think it objectively leans one way (which you can verify by looking it up on one of those companies that evaluates media bias) and it just so happens that the way it leans is where the votes for its funding comes from?
