Bias[edit | edit source]
If you're biased and you know it, clap your hands. I don't mind bias (we're all biased), I more mind dishonesty. So every time I hear a reporter on NPR claim they're non-biased, right before they prove otherwise, it irks the crap out of me. But then, every now and then, one surprises me and openly admits the truth. Their CEO did, once he left his position, in a quote that completely fits my experience with NPR.
Most NPR news has two solutions to every problem:
- (1) "government failed to solve this, or made it worse: the solution is more government", or
- (2) "I know, let's pass a law/regulation/tax to fix it".
When your only tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

So this section would be huge, if I wanted to dedicate my life to nothing else -- but it's so bad, that I usually just have to ignore their disinformation or propaganda. Examples of getting it wrong include:
