As Twitchy reported earlier today, NPR said it would no longer post to its 52 official Twitter feeds after Musk tagged NPR as “state-affiliated media.” NPR actually considers itself independent journalism and will not be placed in the same camp as news feeds from Russia or China.
We wish NPR would make up its mind … it continually claims that it receives practically nothing from the federal government … a fraction of a percent. If that’s true, then why would NPR oppose efforts to defund it and prove itself truly independent?
NPR reporters and staffers are still allowed to post to Twitter if they wish, and we bet they will. NPR business reporter sent a portion of NPR’s statement to Twitter CEO Elon Musk and asked for comment. What’s Musk’s reaction to NPR taking its ball and going home?
Perfect.
Yeah, the BBC is butthurt that it’s been labeled government-funded media — which it is.
We’re going to miss NPR’s tweets only because we like to dunk on them so hard. They make it easy as biased as they are.
