Through 200x, NPR was always having CIA flacks on. They seem not to be doing that anymore, since about Manning/Snowden.

YMMV but every time I happened to be tuned into NPR (world) news I get an unhealthy dose of State Dept-curated misinformation on topics like Russia, China, Iran, etc.

If anything changed in the post-Collateral Murder world, its that the Washington's content filtering and propaganda subtly intensified.

NPR seem to get all their "world news" patched through from the BBC, which we know is badly compromised.
