Seattle is a joke. NPR is a joke. Add them up and they equal Pravda level farce.

Can anyone imagine a Conservative radio station that receives federal funding failing to broadcast any address by Obama? They would have been shut down.

Is the peer pressure to toe the woke line in Puget Sound that great there is no objection to this? Where my tuff classic liberals at?
This is mind-boggling to an inlander. In my region, the battles are epic between the left and the right - which is a good barometer to balance crazy shit becoming the norm. Invaders from Cali and W. Washington who try to impose their shit on the natives immediately get discounted heavily if not summarily dismissed.

NPR had to fact-check its own fact-check, showing President Trump wasn’t wrong after all when he said over 50,000 Americans could die from the flu this year.
On Monday, NPR published a story headlined, “FACT CHECK: Trump Says 50,000 Could Die From Flu. So Far, It’s Half That.”
The story quoted Trump recently saying, “We have a lot of people dying from the flu on top of everything else… it looks like it could be over 50,000."
NPR wrote “the reality so far for the current flu season is about half as severe as the president said,” pointing to a statistic from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that roughly 23,000 people have died from the flu during the 2019-20 season.
NPR was forced to issue a correction on Wednesday.
“The initial version of this story said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated there have been about 23,000 deaths during the current flu season. That figure is at the lowest end of the CDC's estimated range, which extends to 59,000,” NPR added beneath the now-edited story.
But its the flu so 59,000 dead is business as usual. Corona IS NOT THE FLU
For whatever that is worth. Nothing. If you die you die

I used to really like NPR, and this news pisses me off. You should *always* cover/broadcast leaders’ speeches in their entirety. That way people hear their messages unfiltered can make up their own minds.

Don't put this on NPR as a whole. This is the Maoist KUOW affiliate's decision.
Holy shit, I was right about this a long tim ago too. -
Liberal sister in law posted that on Fakebook. A lot of her little lib Latinxxx amigos cheered. Mean orange man BAD

Makes spinning the narrative so much more difficult.

I only listen to press conferences I agree with.
