Clyde Demands Answers from NPR on Disinformation Reporting Team | 2022-07-21 | 2022 | 2022-07 | Republican | House | GA | Andrew S. Clyde | C001116 | clyde.house.gov | clyde | https://clyde.house.gov/news/documentquery.aspx?DocumentTypeID=27 | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Congressman Andrew Clyde (GA-09) led 13 of his House Republican colleagues in sending a letter to the President and CEO of National Public Radio (NPR), John Lansing, raising concerns about NPR’s track record of spreading disinformation and demanding answers about the media organization’s new “Disinformation Reporting team.” In the letter, Rep. Clyde scrutinizes NPR’s handling of disinformation, citing both Hunter Biden and Nina Jankowicz as prominent examples. He concludes, “I am concerned with the ability of your newsroom to be the ‘arbiters of truth,’ and police so-called disinformation, without it being a ruse to advance a left-wing political agenda.” “Given NPR’s notorious track record of spreading disinformation and selectively reporting on politically damaging stories, it’s both comical and concerning that the liberal media organization is now launching a disinformation team,” said Clyde. “After suppressing the truth about Hunter Biden ahead of the 2020 election, it is naive to believe NPR can conduct any operations in a non-partisan manner — especially policing rhetoric that contradicts their liberal narrative. Furthermore, American taxpayer dollars should not be funding blatantly biased reporting or efforts to conceal credible news. It’s far past time we provide the American people with the answers they deserve and hold NPR accountable for conducting nefarious ‘journalism’ to advance the radical Left’s agenda.” Co-signers include: Reps. Jim Banks (IN-03), Andy Biggs (AZ-05), Madison Cawthorn (NC-11), Byron Donalds (FL-19), Matt Gaetz (FL-01), Paul Gosar (AZ-04), Jody Hice (GA-10), Ralph Norman (SC-05), Burgess Owens (UT-04), Scott Perry (PA-10), Guy Reschenthaler (PA-14), Claudia Tenney (NY-22), and Glenn Thompson (PA-15).
