gave the story the wrong title.
It should have been called, "We interrupt our tRump and Clinton coverage to give you a few words about Sanders."

Of course, public radio used to be budgeted by "public" funding primarily when it started out in the 70s… And HERE'S an example of why it's important to nationalize some things, like education and INFORMATION. NPR has been sucked into the corporate funding. So, I hope Scot heard the message.

I could almost tell in Amy's voice that he did.

I mean, what a fucking embarrassment that NPR contributes to the lack of talking about THE ISSUES.
