NPR White House correspondent Ari Shapiro doesn't stand for our national anthem and won't recite the Pledge of Allegiance. Why? Because he places his position as a "journalist" above love of county. But, one wonders, does Shapiro understand that without this country he wouldn't be free to be a journalist?

ALL THINGS NOT CONSIDERED: OCCUPY TERRORISM
I guess it should not surprise us that the NPR program ALL THINGS CONSIDERED did not even mention once the five anarchist with the Occupy Cleveland movement were arrested by the FBI today while attempting to get explosives to blow up a bridge in Cleveland. You need to go to other news sources for that story:
"A mohawk-wearing anarchist nicknamed "Cyco" was among five men arrested after allegedly conspiring to blow up a bridge about 15 miles south of Cleveland, according to court documents released Tuesday.
Douglas L. Wright, 26, joined alleged co-conspirators Brandon L. Baxter, 20, a.k.a. "Skabby," and Anthony Hayne, 37, a.k.a. "Tony" and "Billy," in a plot authorities say homed in on the Brecksville-Northfield High Level Bridge, which spans the Cuyahoga Valley National Park and carries a four-lane highway." -Daily Caller
NPR's lack of coverage is also not surprising since workers at NPR stations have been know to be shills for the anarchist Occupy Wall Street movement. This just another example of the leftist bias that pervades National Public Radio these days. Domestic terrorism is not worthy for broadcast if it puts the anarchists of the Occupy Wall Street movement in a bad light. They just ignore the story and hope no one notices their blackout of the story. Just another reason why NPR sucks!

NPR's COMMON CAUSE CONNECTIONS
Sometimes it's not what NPR tells it's listeners. It's what it does not tell them. Here is the latest ethical outrage:
"For its efforts, ALEC has recently come under a coordinated assault by many leftist organizations, especially Common Cause and 9-11 truther Van Jones' Color of Change. NPR's report purportedly raised "questions" over ALEC's tax status and quoted extensively from Common Cause. What listeners didn't learn, however, was that NPR's reporter, Peter Overby formerly worked for Common Cause."
"NPR's report also relied extensively on the opinion of Marcus Owens, a tax attorney at the firm Caplain & Drysdale. Left out of NPR's report, however, was the fact that Owens' firm recently represented Common Cause in litigation against the IRS. Of course, NPR treats Owens as a disinterested expert on non-profit tax law, raising "questions" which Common Cause can then echo later in the story. NPR's listeners might have benefited from the knowledge that there was a business interest between Owens' firm and Common Cause." -BIG JOURNALISM

OBAMA'S A NO JOKE ZONE AT NPR!
"Today's edition of National Public Radio's weekly On the Media show featured a segment on recycled advertising slogans, which closed by spoofing the Republican presidential candidates--but declining to spoof President Barack Obama."- BIG JOURNALISM
