beautiful... the entire set and in particular the incandescent finale!

[@scottbenson1961]

I would listen but NPR broke trust. We refuse to listen to anything you put forth. Thumbs DOWN, no ‘likes’ no ‘shares’ UNSUBSCRIBE and finally BLOCK.

[@scottbenson1961]

The music may be pleasant and listenable but who cares? PBS’s discordant, unbalanced. biased talkers BROKE the social contract we entrusted to you. Your chief editor said that truth is not a top priority in her TED talk. A chorus of syrupy voices can’t disguise your imbalance, anti-journalistic content.

[@SheilaR.08]

That is a gross mischaracterization of a much more nuanced explanation she gave. Having read several interviews with her, I agree with her. If you listened to the entire talk you reference, rather than relying on the cherry-picked regurgitations of outlets such as Fox, I struggle to understand how you arrived at the conclusions you express.

@@SheilaR.08 "The First Amendment is a problem." ?! She SAID THAT! I did NOT mischaracterize her position. NOT at ALL. Set her DOWN. Get OFF Leftist rails and RETURN to the CENTER where journalist and newsroom editors belong.
