National Public Radio is getting called out for its “left-wing bigotry” after it takes up to 23% of its budget from American taxpayers – and then willfully offends significant numbers by promoting the LGBT ideology and abortion.
The comments come from Rob Schwarzwaler, a senior lecturer at Regent University.
In a report posted online at the Washington Stand, a division of Family Research Council, he explained the problem.
“National Public Radio (NPR) has long been a mainstay of elitist liberalism. As I have written before, although some of its news coverage, especially on international issues, remains useful, its biases are now so overt as to disinvite any confidence in its claims to fairness.”
He cited multiple promotions of the LGBT ideology in just three days: A report of LGBT veterans receiving benefit, “protests” against LGBT ideology turning “violent,” how schools and parents can promote LGBT ideology, the Bud Light boycott and the LGBT agenda, and a campaign by a transgender politician.
“Three days, five LGBTQ stories. This, despite the fact that only 3.5% of the American population identifies as male homosexual, lesbian, ‘transgender,’ or ‘other’ (another 4% identify as bisexual). This steady infusion of stories sympathetic to the LGBTQ activist movement are part of a larger narrative, one aggressively friendly to social extremism and fraught with anti-Christian bias.”

It was the Western Journal that recently reported up to 23% of NPR’s budget comes from taxpayers, and NPR itself states that such funding is essential.
“That bias is pronounced with respect to evangelical Protestants. I’ve found several stories since January of this year dealing with evangelicals, two of them with the passings of Tim Keller (whose social conservatism and theological orthodoxy are not mentioned) and Pat Robertson (whose detractors are quoted at length). The others are, predictably, antagonistic (‘An evangelical superstar left her church but kept her faith;’ ‘He walked away from his evangelical roots to escape feeling suffocated;’ and ‘Black praise in white pews: when your church doesn’t love you back’).”
Other NPR points include “Christian nationalism,” but it “Neglected entirely, of course, is any coverage of all that evangelicals do that profoundly benefits our society.”
Further is NPR’s promotion of abortion, which it covers “exhaustively.”
During June all 10 abortion stories were “sympathetic” with “the right to choose,” the report said.
It even, notoriously, covered live an abortion, where the sounds of a woman’s cries were heard.
The report explained what Americans should do is contact NPR about its chosen ideologies.
“Kelly McBride is NPR’s ‘public editor,’ or ombudsman. She can be reached by Twitter at @kellymcb and @nprPublicEditor, the NPR webpage, and NPR’s Facebook page,” the report said.
Until course corrections are evident, he said, “NPR should change ‘public’ to ‘progressive.'”
IMPORTANT NOTE: It’s hard to believe it’s really happening, but it is. Male athletes pretend to be females, dominate their sports, and are thereby rapidly destroying women’s competitive sports worldwide. Convicted male criminals suddenly claim to be transgender so they can be confined in a women’s prison and sexually abuse the female inmates there. Men claiming to be female likewise invade women’s locker rooms, bathrooms, schools, dormitories, sororities, shelters, spas and social organizations – and in the process steal women’s scholarships, advancement, honors and myriad other opportunities.
Meanwhile, transgender groomers and recruiters in schools and on social media platforms like TikTok are continually feeding and expanding the current “mass hysteria” craze that has already led countless teen girls to take testosterone and undergo double mastectomies in a pathetic effort to become boys. No wonder the CDC reports 3 in 5 teen girls say they feel “persistently sad or hopeless” and almost 1 in 3 say they have seriously considered committing suicide.
All of this on top of the radical left’s renewed obsession with killing women’s unborn babies via abortion.
The “woke” left’s maniacal attack on women and girls, virtually unreported by the rest of the media, is the entire focus of the sensational June issue of WND’s critically acclaimed WHISTLEBLOWER magazine, titled “THE LEFT’S TOTAL WAR ON WOMEN.” WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
