Finally read the Uri Berliner piece on NPR biasand I'm baffled by how little the enormous media controversy it spawned has resulted in scrutiny of its claims for factual accuracy. There are significant problems with the piece including obvious, verifiable falsehoods
With his much-read essay on NPR, Uri Berliner has added to the episodic data on partisan leanings of mainstream U.S. newsrooms. In NPR's D.C. HQ a few years ago, he found 87 Dem journos and 0 Republican journos. thefp.com/p/npr-editor-h…
