Rep. Brandon Gill Vows to Defund NPR Over “Fake News” and Editorial Bias

#taxpayer #funding #fakenewsmedia

Never get another dollar of taxpayer funding? That’s the vow Rep. Brandon Gill made during a heated House Oversight hearing, directly to NPR CEO Katherine Maher. Gill unloaded on NPR’s editorial content, calling it “fake news” and “complete garbage,” and cited specific articles like “Diet Culture is Everywhere, Here’s How to Fight It” and “When Civility is Used as a Cudgel Against People of Color” as proof of ideological bias. When Maher failed to defend or even recognize these stories, Gill snapped: “I’ll spend all of my time doing everything I can to ensure you guys never get another dollar of taxpayer funding.” In this breakdown, we cover the most intense moments of the exchange, Maher’s controversial responses, and the broader push among conservatives—including support from Trump and Elon Musk’s DOGE initiative—to defund NPR and PBS entirely. Is public broadcasting on the brink of collapse? Watch and decide.
