(11,945 posts)1. This is excellent. Thank you.
I, a nice little old liberal lady, have long been a contributor to NPR and am currently giving on a monthly basis (they tap my credit account) but it has become obvious that they are wholly in the bag for Hill.
Bad enough that they should be biased in their reporting, but their taste in candidates is demonstrably horrible.
They have forfeited any further claim on my monthly donations.
