    The fact that you hate your NPR station does not justify that all public broadcasting should go under.

    Off topic: you're female?

    1) are you really refusing to understand that I don't CARE about the point of the OP? My point is that I personally think it would be a good thing if NPR went tits up.

    2) Do I look like a female?

    1. That mindframe is pretty closed. Only what YOU like should stay and the rest should go. How about being more accepting of other opinions and choices? And besides, the death of public broadcasting is the beginning of only ONE viewpoint in this country for news, Mainstream Media, and their slant is all gov't bias. So it's basically a form of fascism. Glad to see that's what you support!

    2. You mentioned having a husband. That's why I questioned that. Sheesh!

    Uh... no... I didn't say that what I don't like should go, just that I'd be happy if it does.

    by the way, the loser of any argument is the first one to draw parallels to fascists of nazis.

    It sounds like you don't really pay much attention to the media. I'll just accept that, and understand that you're not willing to look into the topic further, nor understand the monopoly that mainstream media is creating.

    Thanks for the clarification. I did think that was you in your avatar, but can you understand why I was a bit confused? :)

    No, I DO get that. And I think that NPR comes across as a bunch of annoying pretentious boors kissing each other's asses and because it's only listenable to a bunch of pretentious boors, it's given RISE to the Fox "News"s and the MSNBCs of the world.
