NPR definitely has shifted left over the years. Reading his release, he had me with the first part. Then he goes and jumps the rails to Madeupville, Crazytown.
They haven’t shifted anywhere. Being “left” these days means not being an insurrectionist… it’s the conservatives who’ve moved further right; and in any case, NPR as a whole is very accurate on their reporting.

What the hell do you mean by “focusing on the left?” What would it mean to “focus on the right?”
Reality has a leftist bias. You think they have gone left only because a lot of very stupid and insecure people have shifted harshly to the right.

I’d say they lean left. So do most accredited media bias websites.
