NPR

@Jolly gets increasingly fond of imposing government rules these days.
The NPR is a membership based organization and gets no direct federal funding. To the extent that at it gets a few grants here and there from the Corporation of Public Broadcasting for specifically things, these grants make up less than 2% of NPR’s budget. When using these grants, the NPR is obligated to adhere to the terms and conditions that come with the grants. Otherwise there is no justification for external entities to have a say in the NPR’s editorial decisions.

The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 does not require the NPR to cover all major political view points. Individual members stations can certainly tell the NPR what sort of programming they want or don’t want. But that’s up to those individual member stations, not the federal government.
