The House Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee is holding a hearing today titled “Examining Accusations of Ideological Bias at NPR, a Taxpayer-Funded News Entity.”
NPR's CEO declined to appear at the hearing about bias in the media operation she runs:
National Public Radio chief Katherine Maher will not abide by a House committee's request to appear on Wednesday, according to the organization.
A spokesperson for NPR confirmed to Fox News Digital that Maher would not be appearing as requested before the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, citing an all-day meeting with the organization's board of directors.
"NPR respects the Committee and its request and has offered to testify on a date in the near future that works for the Committee and Maher," the spokesperson said in a statement.
Why did Maher decline to appear at a hearing about bias at NPR (that gained steam with former editor Uri Berliner's recent article)? The top answer couldn't be more clear, as Joe Concha pointed out:
Maher knew she'd be shown that photo a LOT if she attended today's hearing.
Right? They're sure not easy to find.
Congressional Democrats could of course be counted on to run interference for NPR, which is just a branch press office for the DNC:
They couldn't be more predictable and shameless.
