RE: NPR Labeled "State-Affiliated" by Twitter - rachel83az - 04-09-2023 NPR is kind of boring. Facts-only. Explains why certain people think it's biased.

So if they have control over editorial content, then I assume this would mean the power to stop all bad articles that would criticize the current administration in charge, which isn't the case if you look back in history. Elon Musk is a smart guy, but some of the stuff he does is dumb sometimes, making the rest of us feel better. haha.
