You refer to a survey which is 8 years old. Your commentary isn't credible.

You would suggest that in 8 years the demographics of journalists would have radically changed?

So for conservatives all media is liberal.

I agree. If a news outlet is not actively and obviously promoting conservative ideas, it gets labeled as "liberal media" by conservatives.

Again, though, this is a relatively recent phenomenon. It took the advent of Fox news, that scary manifestation of evil to the progressive mindset, to wake up NPR to the concept that occasionally providing a diversity of viewpoints might not only be smart policy but ethically more in line with what constitutes broadcasting for the American public.

In other words, NPR now presents flyover America with a little less of a patronizing attitude, and conservatives as something other than curious hayseeds hopelessly out of touch with all the things that really matter to the urban, ultra-liberal moral relativists who make up the majority of its content providers and production staff.

NPR loss all creditablity has a neutral media when they fired the commentor appearig on FOX and itwas looked inot.They should have been excluded from any taxpayer funding.

I like NPR.

Of course NPR is liberal.

[beenhereandthere]

Not at all. Republicans generally think that anything that's not Faux News or Limbaugh is "liberal media" when in reality, the only network that might be like that is MSNBC.

NPR is about as middle of the road as you can get, very objective and fair. If they are not an objective network, what do station do you you watch?
