13. THIS SUCKS!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!! !!!!!! !!
To all of you out there who stopped supporting NPR because of how FAR RIGHT it has moved in the last few years, I ask, Is this what you wanted?

NPR's "Talk of the Nation" recently had their current Ombudsman Jeffrey A. Dvorkin on the show, and he said he had been getting Flooded with e-mails from RW Fundies, so I have no doubt that he and NPR are under RW pressure. I've heard people here moan about how corporate NPR has become, but abandoning one of our last left leaning Radio News Networks (because it's not as left as AAR or Pacifica) is just wrong.

This to me looks like another RW attempt to influence and shove NPR and PBS more Right, so I hope you will reconsider your decision to abandon NPR, as it HAS started to move back toward the Left, due to (I suspect) e-mails from DUer's at mine and others, urging.

I hope anyone that who agrees, will send a short letter of support to <http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=45... > or atc@npr.org :evilfrown:
