The information is valuable and viable. It is intereseting and varied. The quality of journalism is excellent and the comments and essays aired from listeners are of great human interest. I have gleaned more of value from NPR than very nearly any other media source. Love it. NPR has been my primary source of news for the last 10 years. The information is valuable and viable.

To complete my news fix, I frequent the New York Times website, and www.drudgereport.com. Though Drudge is an unabashed right-leaner, his news site provides links to all major (and not so major) news oulets.

Tue, 15 May 2007 15:38:59 +0000 http://www.viewfromcenter.com/2007/05/11/take-the-challenge/#comment-101 I agree with Dave. Although NPR does have a liberal slant, it reports the news more fairly and acurately than anyone else out there (and without the anger and vitriole of other networks). It is much more balanced than Fox News and willing to ask the hard questions that other media outlets aren't. As for good print media that has a slight conservative slant that I believe is very fair and even-handed, check out the Economist. It's a weekly British political and economic magazine that reports on world-wide events and is critical for keeping up on current affairs, both domestic and foreign. I highly recommend it.
