Former NPR executive praises whistleblower for exposing liberal bias: ‘He’s identified a real problem’
Published
Veteran NPR editor Uri Berliner detailed his employer’s “absence of viewpoint diversity” last week in a stunning rebuke of the news organization, and a former high-level NPR executive feels a “real problem” was identified in the scathing piece.
“I’m not surprised because he’s a very thoughtful and forthright guy,” a former high-level NPR executive who worked with Berliner told Fox News Digital on the condition of anonymity.
Berliner penned a bombshell piece in the Free Press that criticized NPR’s coverage of Russiagate, the COVID lab leak theory, Hunter Biden’s scandalous laptop, embrace of the theory of systemic racism and accused the organization of downplaying antisemitism following Oct. 7.
He also wrote that registration records in 2021 showed an astonishing disparity between Democrats and Republicans in the NPR newsroom and said staffers didn’t want to help former President Trump, among other things, to indicate an “open-minded spirit no longer exists” at NPR.
