so republicans want to be fun
npr
first of all do we have any business using
tax dollars to fund po television or public
radio
that's a tough one itself was yeah i don't
know either i think
i think
you should find like information
non-partisan but unfortunately the truth looks
very democratic
but npr i would think we would argue is non-partisan
it's just that the truth right now what is
a great way to put the trip looks like the
trip looks like a comfortable
so n_p_r_ before you know my father in npr
nineteen seventy-seven in nineteen eighty
two
uh... one of their former employees say it's
their first employee a guy named jack mitchell
believes that by father did not leave npr
in perfect financial uh... condition because
he made a serious effort
to stop the reliance
on public funds
and then after he left i think in eighty two
or eighty three
sky jack mitchell says that
that the whole mentality the place it shifted
from this sort of two alternative stories
that nobody else did
to doing what everybody else did
but doing it
which i think they have
achieved
uh... so that his change does that mean if
they're just doing what a_b_c_ news doesn't
c_b_s_ news washington's new york times that
they shouldn't get public funding just because
they do it so damn well public funding do
they do
if percentage is about five percent overall
but in some small you can go up to thirty
percent locally and in some small communities
there's it can be thirty to fifty percent
of their fundraising working around the country
on the wednesday feliz computers little solicited
p_r_c_ i think there's a lot better parts
of the country
breadth of the activities the they didn't
know question they need they need you're small
colorado have small kansas town
party california when in the at you raise
that money on your own goodies forecast brett
so they use a lot of fun actually
so when we see those numbers that is only
five percent
that miss lee
uh... so i let my dad was on on the media
there sort of weekly show about the press
with uh...
uh... brooke gladstone
and uh...
so she's talking he's talking to a class so
she has a review and and he starts by saying
it's just a quick n_p_r_'s president from
seven seven eighty three and he talks about
decoupling television public television from
public radio
leave n_p_r_ outsell paintings n_p_r_ consistent
cell phone is on
public t_v_ certainly needs the public about
uh... maybe try to reduce the npr share the
budget
so
that's his point but then she goes back to
ensure peace about sort of npr this twelve
minute piece that the these guys do
and my dad gibson all-time great response
and n_p_r_
uh... remarkably kidnapped uh... edit this
cap confidence news organization
that according to find with holding listeners
truman responsible for father
pollution ricardo religion was treating him
you're in the right direction
jumps telecom n_p_r_'s boorda bunch of proceeds
mature plant
pussies
coaches feed
hopefuls she's
bluntly truly
there is a vintage uh... my father
every conversation my brother and i have with
the madrid him everybody has been here you'd
say one thing you don't know that they had
to be said of the wrong thing and you yelled
that thing you meant
it's just not usually
policies policies
locket kayak
and apparently n_p_r_ would left that on to
uh... so anyway god bless my father for color
go overboard at n_p_r_ policies
