I've Been at NPR for 25 Years. Here's How We Lost America's Trust.

Excellent analysis of the pervasiveness of 'progressive' bias and
enforcement of ideological rigor in the legacy media. And coming from a
liberal at NPR, it cuts off the typical blame-the-messenger tactic
employed by the Effas of the world at the knees.

The messenger was blamed, and cut off at the knees.

NPR suspends veteran editor as it grapples with his public criticism

Folkenflik reported that Berliner was told that he violated company
policy about failure to get his essay pre-approved by his bosses. It's
not like he came upon a breaking news story and gave it to someone other
than NPR. This was a personal essay.

Steve Inskeep, host of Morning Edition, criticized what Berliner had
written on his own Substack, but I guess that counter-essay was, er,
pre-approved as he wasn't disciplined.
