Senate and House Republicans sounded off about NPR after a senior editor at the outlet made allegations of bias within the newsroom.
Congressional Republicans said National Public Radio's federal funding should be revisited after a senior editor at the publication penned a scathing review of its employees' partisan makeup. 'NPR has abandoned their own definition of diversity and inclusion with their one-sided reporting and blatantly biased newsroom,' House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., the No. 3 House Republican leader, told Fox News Digital.
In a statement to Fox News Digitial, a spokesperson for NPR said, 'Millions of Americans depend on their local public radio station for the fact-based, unbiased, public service journalism they need to stay informed about the world and about the news in their own communities. Federal funding is essential to making that happen.' 'I would be more than fine pulling funding from NPR,' added Rep. Andy Ogles, R-Tenn.
