Uri Berliner, a senior editor at NPR who penned an op-ed last week accusing the broadcaster of liberal bias, has resigned from the company. In social media post on Wednesday, Berliner published his…

What do you mean by left? Anticapitalist? I have never heard any bias in favor of socialism, communism or anarchism, but if you can point me to something you have that works as evidence in favor of your argument, I am happy to look at it.
Otherwise, I think we have to consider the fact that you don’t know what you are talking about.
I assume you mean they lean liberal and let’s say I grant you that.
Do you think community radio might lean liberal because conservatives don’t believe in community and undermine the very concept at every turn?
Do you think NPR could be more centrist if conservatives started believing in building our communities rather than undermine them?
What specifically about community radio is antithetical to your beliefs and would your participation in it help to alleviate those issues?
Because yeah, if the people you hate are involved in community radio while you choose not to, of course you won’t be represented, but that was your decision, not NPR’s.

A true criticism of public broadcasting would be the reliance on licensing British and Canadian content, but again, that’s your fault as well since you refuse to participate and help us fund original content.

If you listen to NPR, you’d know that they only lean one way.
