NPR Audience Has Shifted More To The Left


Uri Berliner, a senior editor at NPR, has recently expressed his perspective on the network’s political leanings. Having been with NPR for 25 years, Berliner believes that the outlet has shifted toward a more left-leaning perspective than it previously featured. While NPR has always had a liberal bent, Berliner asserts that the current stance is even more pronounced. His op-ed in The Free Press highlights this change and raises important questions about media coverage and bias.

Additionally, an NPR editor who chose to remain anonymous revealed to The Daily Caller a striking disparity in voter registration within the newsroom. According to voter registration records, there were 87 registered Democrats compared to zero registered Republicans at NPR’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. This revelation has sparked discussions about the network’s editorial balance and its impact on reporting.

Berliner’s candid reflections and the voter registration data underscore the ongoing debate about media objectivity and the role of political perspectives in shaping news coverage.
