PRESS ALERT: Why
are the NPR and PBS presidents
the only witnesses scheduled to testify
at the March 26th DOGE Subcommittee hearing on NPR and PBS bias?
What about the NPR and PBS public editors, each responsible for complaints,
and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting’s Inspector General, also
responsible for complaints. And what about complainants who have filed
complaints with all of them? The
importance of this was the subject of my
February
18th letter to DOGE
Subcommittee Chair Marjorie Taylor Greene and FCC Chair Brendan Carr
entitled “Defunding NPR, PBS – & Firing the CPB’s Inspector General, for
starters”. It opened with these two sentences:
“I am director and co-founder of the New
York-based non-partisan, non-profit citizens’ organization
Center
for Judicial Accountability, Inc. (CJA)
and applaud your efforts to expose the truth about NPR and PBS.fn1
I suggest you do so by examining how they handle complaints of biased and
knowingly
false journalism – and that you also examine how
the Corporation for Public Broadcasting’s Inspector General handles
complaints about NPR’s and PBS’ handling of complaints.” (italics in the
original). Nine EVIDENCE-FILLED pages later– including as to
the collusion of NPR, PBS, and other media in the corruption of New York
state governance involving its massive, policy-filled state budget, pay
raises, NY Attorney General Letitia James, and NY District Attorney Alvin
Bragg – the letter concluded, stating:
“I am available to answer questions – including
under oath. I would be honored to testify at such hearings as you will
be holding. In any event, I ask that this statement be submitted for
the record of the hearings.
I affirm it all to be true, under
penalties of perjury. Kindly forward
the letter to all who are committed to establishing the truth about NPR,
PBS, and their collusion with other media in ‘election interference’ and
other violations of First Amendment responsibilities. There is much
defunding, firing, and prosecutions that need to take place.fn8
Three times I emailed the letter to the majority
office of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform and to FCC
Chair Carr --
February 18th,
February 28th, and
March 21st, without response. Was it
forwarded to DOGE Subcommittee Chair Greene and to all the Subcommittee
members? Who else? Was it forwarded to U.S. Attorney General Pam
Bondi, as requested? How about to the NPR and PBS presidents and
public editors and to the CPB Inspector General, for their written
responses. Will it be part of the record, as requested?
Will it be the subject of questioning,
at all,
at tomorrow's hearing? I am available to answer your questions, no matter
how early or late. Please call. Thank you. Elena Sassower, Director * * *
