Longtime NPR Senior Business Editor Exposes How DEI and Trump Derangement Ruined The Organization - Independent News

There are some things in life for which you need no official confirmation to know it’s true, like “The View” co-host Sunny Hostin being a couple of fries short of a Happy Meal. There’s also the likelihood that Joe Biden is just one hair sniff away from being booted off the ticket during the DNC.

NPR’s liberal bias is one of those things, too, which we’ve seen by way of their emphasis on wokeness in their reporting, their rampant TDS, and their burgeoning disgust with long-held American ideals – just to name a few.

But every once in a while, confirmation is a good thing, and that’s just what we got this week when Uri Berliner, a longtime senior business editor and reporter for NPR, spilled the tea in a very revealing piece at The Free Press.

The article is way too long to extensively quote, but the highlight reel includes an admission that his employer and colleagues completely lost it when Donald Trump was elected president, something Berliner – who admits he’s a leftist – suggested was a significant factor in NPR ripping off their paper-thin veneer of objectivity once and for all:

Like many unfortunate things, the rise of advocacy took off with Donald Trump. As in many newsrooms, his election in 2016 was greeted at NPR with a mixture of disbelief, anger, and despair. (Just to note, I eagerly voted against Trump twice but felt we were obliged to cover him fairly.) But what began as tough, straightforward coverage of a belligerent, truth-impaired president veered toward efforts to damage or topple Trump’s presidency.
