As a previous supporter for -YEARS- I’ve only seen yall do the opposite. Cow tow to the ever increasingly right wing center. Disproportionately give voice to the centrist view/ conservative view as if it’s the “ normal” view. You’ve aided in propogandizing AI with next to no real investigations

Of its harm. and frequently when you’ve offered guests on any of your various shows - theres next to NO correction when someone blasts their falsehoods ( see during covid when you let folks describe covid as a bad flu). Yall BLEED journalists because you sacrifice journalistic integrity for the

You completely backed down though. Your country has suffered a fascist oligarchy take over, and you've helped them along, which is the exact opposite of what your donors wanted or expected. Shame on you, and the rest of America's cowardly media. Without truth and courage, fascism thrives.

"Never backed down" for FUCKS sake! Are you fucking kidding me! You act like we havent seen your articles saying "the bombing in Iran MIGHT threaten the MOU" BITCH PLEASE. Fucking pathetic. We won't forget the names of the authors of articles that ran cover for the fascist, and we won't forgive.

Nah, yall have been cowering in “the middle” and granting extremist right-wingers cover for their anti-democratic, anti-science, anti-human-rights beliefs and policies. For years. I give my donations to independent media that is willing to fight for people and justice.

hah, highly accurate journalism like that? You've normalized fascism, simplified issues into maga-speak, and done it repeatedly. Just scroll my timeline mentions for a select sample and I barely follow y'all. Your defunding was well deserved.

Lost trust. Sad sad equivocation and buttery males and Joe so old. On top of at least 15 years of vapid “horse race” political poll coverage. My daughter gave me a “NPR Girlie”(some kind of slogan idk) and I can’t wear it. I’m not anymore.

NPR should change the title of the article to "the npr network doesn't back down unless it involves trump, maga, or Republicans and instead will go after Biden and anything that's positive for America"

It’s funny, because the left are the ones who believed in funding you, but your actions cater to the right. Good luck getting them to donate to you. I cancelled my donations to NPR months ago.

Fact check: NPR has in fact backed down on its mission. The Hunter Biden laptop was real. The evidence on it was used to convict him.

That they're blaming "Congress" and not the party that actually cut their funding is actually a perfect encapsulation of what's been wrong with NPR political coverage for years

NPR sanewashed Trump starting in 2016 and has never stopped. And he still eliminated your federal funding! We had to stop listening to NPR News because I got tired of screaming at the radio.

If @npr.org had stood tall and proud, and dedicated itself to truthful journalism, I would have doubled my pledge. They did not, in fact did the opposite, so I have eliminated dedication to pledging for 30 plus years. You blew it NPR. Now it's time to build back the trust.

I hopped off the donation train about a decade ago when I realized your coverage would never threaten the interests of your corporate underwriters over my own. Nice Polite Republicans indeed

My explanation of how climate change is amplifying these wildfires ended up entirely on the @npr.org cutting room floor. Instead they included an extremely misleading of the supposed role of fire suppression and human alteration (expertly debunked here: www.theclimatebrink.com/p/canadas-bo... )

Every Patriotic American Should Be MAD!Trump and Republicans in House and Senate Have CUT FUNDING To Our National Parks,These Parks Are America’s National Treasures and Should Be Protected.Money once used for crucial National Parks repairs is now financing Trump’s redecorating projects.VOTE BLUE!

This feels like backing down from your mission and wasting the trust folks have in your journalism. bsky.app/profile/mich...

Dunno about anyone else, but I'm not going to pay money for a product declining in quality for the past ten years. I believe in the mission of NPR, PBS, etc., but it seems like the people in charge do not agree with what I believe that mission to be. Defunding yourself by hemorrhaging donors 🤣
