Yeah, not only that, but if your coverage didn’t do so much sane-washing for the fascists, maybe I’d feel more motivated to help.

Hence, my question I mean, if the majority of NPR's governing board stood with 92% of Black women and 80% of Black men, then I'll stand with NPR. (but, points to their recent pattern of sane-washing) Otherswise, they can #FAFO & #FO

What an odd deflection of a question to ask. I didn't suggest anything is on you. I simply want to know that if NPR goes away, what is your better option?

I apologize for misinterpreting your question I listen to the podcasts of those fired by NPR, et al

NPR doesn't do breaking news anymore, they're mouthpieces for fascism, so I really don't see how this question has any relevancy here.

Support your local station. The mothership doesn't need your money and isn't going anywhere. In a lot of places, the only source for unbiased radio news and public interest information is the local NPR affiliate, however.

Who the fuck cares if NPR lives or dies? What useful purpose are they serving now that they've become servile bootlickers for fascists? Sometimes... dead is better.

"Dem leadership" also looks to be wading into the shallow end of the oxymoron pool, with limited exceptions.

Backup plan for what? Many of us stopped listening to NPR quite some time ago because of their bullshit sane-washing, normalizing fascists, and platforming liars.
