I would argue NPR, and I am a listener, has many opinion shows. They dont express an opinion directly, they only give one side of the story.

I know the shows I referenced in the hannity comment are opinion shows, I was just saying that NPR losing 10% of it's budget if federal grants go away doesn't mean they can't be successful, as fox is with it's opinion shows. NPR and public radio have a huge majority of shows that are opinion shows. National Public Radio does not mean it is government radio, by any means. Although I think there are alot of people who believe that. The name may be NPR, but like thousands of other entities, they get government grants that help fund the programming. Really, Car Talk, Prairie Home, and wait, wait don't tell me are what I care about anyway. If I want news, I watch Colbert
