What's NPR? I'm sure it'd be funnier if I knew who they were.

National Public Radio...It's known for being extremely left-leaning.

I don't like NPR either.... But, I also don't like right wing media pundits like Rush Limbaugh...and that other dumbass....I think his name is Glenn Beck?
Man...I want to puke everytime hear about either of those two. I would love nothing more than to,..... put them up against a wall...and shoot em'....(breaks into song and dance).
None of those radio assholes make any sense anyway. It's all just a bunch of sick partisan politics bullshit.

Personally I enjoy NPR quite a bit when I can hear it.
Then again I lean so far to the left my head scrapes on walls as I pass.

I love NPR news. I listen to it every morning taking the kids to school.

Absolutely, funniest show on the radio. Aren't they a couple of Italians from Boston? They would kill it at the local bar. They actualy have me laughing out loud at the radio sometimes.

Not sure about their ethnicity, but they do sound like they're from Boston. I'm pretty sure they're brothers and they both went to Harvard or MIT or something ridiculous like that-

Funny as hell when some lady calls in with a question like, "I forgot to put oil in my 1976 Ford Pinto and now it's making this funny metallic scraping noise, do you guys know what the problem could be? hahaha...Their answers kill me.

What exactly makes you hate it.
Do you find it boring,mundane, not enough to your political liking? When people say they don't like it they usually site why.So I'm curious.

All of the above. Also the way they talk is just obnoixious. Its long and drawn out. Seems like theyre trying to be so goddamn intellectually stimulating but they're really just boring. And definetly not to my political liking.

i know what she means by the typical womans voice on NPR...almost has a Martha Stuart quality...drives me fucking nuts.
I like prarie home companion...sometimes...and i love car talk but i never get to listen to it. Other than that, its boring as fuck and annoys me. I dont mind listening to left leaning stuff, as long as they give the other side a chance to talk...which i rarely hear on NPR...just a bunch of Bush jokes. Sorry, those havent been funny for about 5 years now.

Meh, I like NPR. But then again, that's cause AFN plays them in the evening. Their news show come on in between Ed Schulz and Rush Limbaugh on the Armed Forces radio network. Makes for a great evening of radio.
And the only news broadcast I can listen to in English.

I actually tend to bounce back and forth between c-span radio, NPR and the BBC. I think I end up with a pretty broad spectrum of opinions that way.

contrary to what these savages on here tell you, it's one of the only fair media outlets we have in america. on a regular basis they present both sides of an issue, unlike most other media outlets.

sorry they're not running a a course on how to be xenophobic and bigoted, and how "islamic revolutionary radical american hating fundamentalism" is rampant.
