This guy smells like a grifter in the making. He basically tried to get fired so he could say he was canceled by liberals and when NPR didn’t fire him, he quit and said he was cancelled anyway. It’s the exact same thing that grifter Bari Weiss did when she was at The NY Times.

Also, there seems to be a coordinated smear campaign to besmirch NPR’s CEO. People were taking clips of her out of context and trying to make a scandal where none existed. (She used to be at Wikipedia and she gave some talks where she basically said Wikipedia, specifically, is less about “truth” than “verifiability.” As in, when editing, cite a source rather than assume you are a source of truth. You can see how some selectively edited clips of those speeches can make someone sound like they aren’t worried about facts.)

Not 👏 all 👏 viewpoints 👏 are 👏 equally 👏 valid 👏 you 👏 asshole 👏.

Berliner has that pathological need of Conservatives to pretend they’re so persecuted, and whatever else you might think about Inskeep, he does a pretty good job of breaking Berliner down here.
