NPR's Liberal Bias Exposed By Veteran Editor


Uri Berliner, a senior business editor and a 25-year NPR veteran, recently published a stunning piece that sheds light on the liberal bias within NPR’s newsroom. Let’s delve into five notable claims he made:

Rebuking NPR’s Coverage of Controversial Topics:

Berliner criticized NPR’s handling of several contentious issues, including the Hunter Biden laptop, the COVID lab leak, and the Russiagate narrative. He highlighted how the network’s reporting leaned in a particular direction, raising concerns about viewpoint diversity.

Adam Schiff’s Frequent Presence: Berliner pointed out that NPR interviewed Representative Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) extensively during the Russiagate coverage. Schiff became NPR’s “ever-present muse,” with at least 32 interviews between 2016 and 2019. These interviews often revolved around the narrative of Trump’s alleged collusion with Russia, even though no evidence supported Schiff’s claims1.

Troubling Blackout on Antisemitism: Berliner highlighted NPR’s lack of coverage regarding the growing antisemitism in the U.S. and worldwide after the terrorist attack against Israel on October 7. He criticized the network’s framing of the Israel-Hamas war through an “intersectional” lens, which skewed its reporting1.

NPR’s Drift from Center to the Left: In 2011, NPR was “a bit to the left.” However, according to Berliner, it has now shifted further left, and the open-minded spirit that once existed has disappeared1.

The Absence of Viewpoint Diversity: Berliner’s bombshell piece revealed that NPR’s newsroom lacks a variety of perspectives. He raised concerns about the homogeneity of thought within the organization1.

Fox News Digital reports this candid exposé by a seasoned NPR editor has ignited discussions about media bias and the need for balanced reporting.
