Rubio goes on NPR and talks about defunding NPR
On NPR’s The Diane Rehm Show this morning, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said taxpayer dollars shouldn’t support public broadcasting, such as NPR.
“I do have concerns about spending money on public broadcasting,” Rubio told Diane Rehm during an hourlong Q&A on NPR. …
A caller pointed out the irony of Rubio’s position, saying, “He’s spending an entire hour on the show today.”
Rubio countered that a half-century ago, a station like NPR might have been necessary, but “today there is no shortage of options” for news and opinion.
“I have 300 stations on my satellite radio,” Rubio boasted.

Posted on July 19, 2012 at 4:01pmDe-fund N.P.R. and let their “members” pay for it. De-fund A.B.C. – C.B.S. – N.B.C. – M.S.N.B.C.- C.N.N. – BY NOT purchasing their sponsors’ products. THEY did not vet Obama; they were just airhead “cheerleaders” for the “Ineligible One” ! America demands and has ” hope ” for some real JOURNALISM for a “change” !
