National Public Radio (NPR) is a not-for-profit organization which produces and broadcasts various liberal [1] radio programs including news, talk shows, and entertainment. The audience of NPR listeners has grown exponentially since the organization's inception in 1970. Currently, NPR reports that 26 million Americans tune in each week.[2] Not only does NPR boast a large weekly audience it also produces the two most listened-to radio programs on public radio: Morning Edition and All Things Considered. A November 2005 Poll showed NPR to be the most trusted radio-broadcast news network in the United States.[3]

NPR, along with PBS, has been accused of aiming its broadcast toward wealthy, elite segments of the American population while neglecting others, who nonethless pay for the programming.
