40. You're not saying anything. You're not making an argument.
What's your point here?

NPR tells both sides?

They don't. It's a fact. Name one time when you've heard a discussion of the business model/economic issue.

You aren't even well-versed in it, so, either YOU'VE never heard it before, or you know that you don't have a rebuttal for it, so you're fastidiously avoiding addressing it and you're avoiding anything other than repeating your (irrelevant) opinion that NPR tells both sides of a story which you're not even inclined to clearly define.

What is the opinion which you think NPR is sharing with America that is the other side of the GMO issue? Do you think allowing the occassional alarmist on to a panel discussion is "presenting both sides", especially when, a month later, they give a Harvard scientist (notice the implications of those two words) 2 minutes, unchallenged, to chaceterize the alarmists as anti-progress?

Why don't they have the left-wing intellectual property lawyer, and the left-wing economist, and the expert on third world subsistence farming on to these pannel discusssions, and why don't they give these people 2 minutes of unchallenged air time? They don't, and they never will.
