  • Your bias is showing

    Disappointing that your reporting of the DHHS staff cuts (and the new administration as a whole) is so one-sided. How about trying a neutral approach? Consider that some of your listeners have common sense.

  • Pervaded by a haughty…

    …treacle-y, leftist tone of contempt for critics of the COVID lockdowns and the patently inane government mask mandates, and bogus wet market theory, as to which the critics were right, and the government mired in cover-up, wrong. NPR-ish sneering and attitudinalizing that communicates little to no substance.
