2. This is the same tired argument companies use for only hiring white men. If a certain group doesn’t want work for you, you’ve proven the thesis that you are not open and inclusive of those people. Conservatives Likely don’t choose to work at NPR because it is hostile to their viewpoints. That’s the whole poi…
2. This is the same tired argument companies use for only hiring white men. If a certain group doesn’t want work for you, you’ve proven the thesis that you are not open and inclusive of those people. Conservatives Likely don’t choose to work at NPR because it is hostile to their viewpoints. That’s the whole point.
3. Because the P in NPR stands for “public”, and NPR receives funding from the government. You are citing private companies, who, like MSNBC, are expected to be tilted. A public radio station serves the entire public, and should reflect the entire public, not the beliefs of a small segment of coastal elites.
4. The definition of “grifter” when it comes to media is “anyone who makes a living publishing information I disagree with”. You nailed it. Liberals love to dismiss anyone who disagree with them (McWhortee, Weiss, Hughes) as merely grifters because, in their liberal bubble, they can’t imagine anyone ACTUALLY disagrees with them.
2. Your comparison is nonsense because nobody's born a Republican or a conservative. It's not an inborn or immutable characteristic. You can decide not to believe the ridiculous paranoid things the party demands its adherents think and say. And even though there are some outward characteristics that can give one a pretty good idea they're dealing with a Republican, like a squared-off goatee or a lifted F-150, it's not quite as easy to pick one out as, say, a woman or a black person.
3. There are many, many members of the public who think and act in cruel and sociopathic manners. This does not mean that NPR owes people like them equal time in the name of ideological diversity, even if the cruelty and sociopathy increasingly mirrors the attitudes of a certain major political party.
4. Pure projection. Weiss et al are the ones who have equated being an ideological minority or being challenged on their professed beliefs with discrimination, even as they were being employed and handsomely paid to let the world know what's on their mind by their supposed oppressors. Being a conservative does not automatically make one a grifter, but lazily pandering to the segment of society who is perpetually angry and confused about the fact that the world is different than how they remember it being does, and that is those people's meal ticket.
1. Not sure. Good question.

1. I know, it was, thanks.
