This Elon Musk guy is a pretty funny dude. He recently relabeled NPR with the same designation as the one used for North Korean and Zimbabwean state-sponsored media entities.
In protest the head of NPR complained,
NPR stands for freedom of speech & holding the powerful accountable. A vigorous, vibrant free press is essential to the health of our democracy.

In answer to this tweet, thousands of hecklers mocked him mercilessly reminding him of the Hunter Biden story and countless other examples of NPR toadying up to the Democrats. To borrow one of the ZMan’s favorite terms the consensus was that NPR was guilty of regime rumpswabbery.
And Elon had the last word.

We call it National Proletariat Radio in our house.
So many people experienced an epiphany through NPR. I remember the day in the early 1990s when I was listening to NPR to hear the news and it just struck me that the broadcast I was listening to was just plain old anti-American propaganda from some idiot whispering in fairly standard English.
NPR had been licking the taint of the left for not just decades, but generations.
I’ll know there’s a chance for this country if we ever shut that company’s government funding off.
