I know some people might not like NPR, but the message matters and can help someone you know. In particular this story touches on women’s issues.

People should be deeply grateful for NPR, and PBS has been a national treasure. I still can't believe we defunded Sesame Street and at the same time that anyone has an axe to grind with the only unbiased reporting left in our nation.

Thanks for the link.

The problem is that unbiased reporting usually reveals conservative corruption and poor behavior.

Used to be! When I was a kid and we had 3 or 4 TV stations to choose from, and they all pretty much reported the same factual news. Being seen as having a bias was poisonous. People picked a news anchor to watch according to how trustworthy they felt he was. Imagine that!

Every human endeavor is biased. Best we can do is try to be transparent about our biases.
