    'Liberal propaganda' media outlet could see taxpayer funding slashed if GOP efforts succeed

    National Public Radio could see its funding slashed as a new bill would scrap both "direct or indirect" federal taxpayer support for the news organization.

    Rep. Kat Cammack, R-Fla., and Sen. Jim Banks, R-Ind., introduced the "Defund NPR Act" this week as spending across the board is being scrutinized by Republican lawmakers.

    "I'm glad to join my longtime friend, Senator Banks, in introducing the Defund NPR Act in the House," Cammack said in a statement. "Last Congress, the Energy & Commerce Committee held a hearing about the status of NPR and how federal funds are often used for left-wing activism under the journalism moniker."

  2. This such a great common sense idea that we should all embrace.

    Conservative taxpayers shouldn't have to support this.

    Conservatives could ask for Nazi Public Radio to get funding.
