Shut down NPR?????? Excuse me, but the only debate has been about federal funding of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting which provides a portion of the its funds to NPR as well as many other organizations. This is a debate that has been going for a long, long time. The fact is that NPR cannot compete in the arena and so they have to live off the public dole. The reason why I don't listen to public radio or watch public TV (or support them financially) is that they are so biased to the left that I am uninterested in their leftist propaganda. And apparently not enough leftists are willing to support NPR either so they have to suckle off the government to stay in business.

Here's a thought, why not provide programming that people want to watch so they will support them financially? Oh wait, that would actually result in them watering down their left wing message. If you can't compete, then change or go out of business! Why should the federal government prop up failing broadcast companies? I can only imagine your howls of outrage if the federal government gave Fox News Channel millions of dollars each year.
