Headquartered in Washington, D.C., National Public Radio (NPR) is a broadcasting and media production organization established in February 1970, but did not begin broadcasting until 1971, by Bill Siemering. The radio network is made up of approximately 900 radio stations across the United States.
NPR prides itself on getting their news in methods that the average journalist might not utilize, including “bunkers, streets, alleys, jungles and deserts around the world.” They also highlight their diverse workforce made up of engineers, editors, inventors and visionaries.
In a case study by FAIR.rog, NPR has been accused of having elitist and influential guests during their broadcasts whose views do not represent that of the American public.
