I think if you should have less faith in anything it&#x27;s the increasing attitude (at least from what I see) that <i>public</i> media is not worth funding with tax dollars or personal donations because it becomes a mouthpiece for a political agenda you may not agree with, so they have to rely on advertising stay on the air.<p>That said, there does appear to be some political leaning to NPR, but it&#x27;s not nearly as bad as the cable news outlets.
