The unfortunate reality is that a half of the US population sees the NLRB as a burden on small businesses—primarily because its policies shift frequently, making compliance costly and complex for those without deep legal resources. [1]
And the same half of the population do not trust anything what npr.org says.
Understanding the above dynamic is key to grasping the current state of discourse in the U.S.

"Defunded" NPR gets less than 2% of their income from the government. Defunding them isn't as big of a deal as claims appear.
I wish that were true. But 2% number is essentially disinformation. NPR gets a large portion of its budget from affiliate stations, which are funded by the government.
An odd claim, since NPR getting defunded is itself a retaliation from the current administration for not reporting positively enough about Trump.
Oh yeah I'm predicting a claim will be made I disagree with. But I can imagine the mental gymnastics, post a prediction and watch for the outcome.
Usually there's a shakedown, did Trump ever make NPR an offer they "couldn't" refuse?
Similar to the one he made to Harvard? Do they even have to make such a thing explicitly these days? I would just assume they won't fund anything that's critical to the current government.
