Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on NPR and PBS: "These are not honest news organizations."

These are not honest news organizations. These are partisan left wing outlets that are funded by the taxpayers and this administration does not believe it's a good use of the taxpayers time and money. NPR unfortunately has become really just a propaganda voice for the left. Just a few examples for you. In 2020 NPR refused to cover refused to cover the Hunter Biden laptop scandal in the run up to the election. They said their assertions don't amount to much writing. They did not want to waste the listeners and readers time on stories that are just pure distractions. That does not sound like an unbiased opinion. That sounds like a partisan opinion to me. And this is a taxpayer funded organization. In 2018 that same CEO that you're talking about called the President in the Oval office who nearly 80 million Americans elected. She called him racist. Shared a photo of herself wearing a Biden for President campaign hat. Serves on the board of a Soros funded activist group in 2020 p White House Correspondent at the time characterized President Trump's speech then at Mount Rushmore as a love letter to white resentment promoting the myth of America. In 2017, PBS devoted an entire panel talking about what it means to be woke and white privilege. These are not honest news organizations. These are partisan left wing outlets that are funded by the taxpayers and this administration does not believe it's a good use of the taxpayers time and money.
