3. Doesn't get much sloppier than that. Apparently NPR doesn't think its
reputation is that important. Then again, in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.

We may never recover from the dumbing down of Americans, which started with Reagan.

6. What show was it on?
I would really like to hear it, and then communicate to them so that they at least know we're paying attention and will call them on this sort of BS.
