I suspect Diane Rehm will discuss it in the first hour of her Friday news roundup tomorrow. He was on her program every so often (he still could be, actually, she invites guests of her own choosing, not those offered by NPR).

NPR doesn't insist people agree with them, and contrary to some of the remarks here, it gets good marks for a fair representation of the news covered from many conservative listeners (if you actually listen to NPR, you'll hear it in the letters sent to the various news programs, because people often state their political leanings in their letters).

Every time there is a GOP majority in the house and Senate they whittle down the amount that the government gives to public radio. It is now down to about 2%, so the threat to de-fund NPR is rather toothless.
