Is NPR Trying To Start A Race War?
BY: TRISTAN JUSTICE
The racial lens through which NPR produces coverage has driven government-funded pundits to produce bizarre takes on race.
The government-funded pundits at National Propaganda Radio (NPR) seem to have a toxic fixation with race.
On Tuesday, the outlet blamed the success of American country music on racial prejudice. In a podcast episode titled “How racism became a marketing tool for country music,” NPR brought on a historian to outline the myriad ways country music is a vehicle for white supremacy. The host, Britany Luse, introduces the episode by previewing questions to Amanda Martinez, a country music historian at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. Luse wants to know “how country music became this symbol of racism” and why country music stars remain popular despite artists who currently lead the charts “peddling racist rhetoric today.”https://thefederalist.com/2023/08/05/is-npr-trying-to-start-a-race-war/
