I would consider myself a progressive, and yet I find NPR to be a propaganda mouthpiece for the left. It seems that every other story is pushing some identity politics agenda with a puff piece for some liberal politician or a slam against some conservative politician, or a heart to heart interview with a transgender immigrant homeless playwright. I agree with the sentiment and the politics, but I disagree with the method, claiming lack of bias while clearly not being neutral. In fact during the last presidential campaign they went so far as to take up a Fox News style slogan, "No Slant, No Rant". They also decided to remove the comments section permanently when even the majority of liberal commenters were slamming Hillary, NPR's darling candidate.
Whenever there's a big event that requires public support, they definitely do their part to push a particular choice. I also remember clearly NPR beating the war drum for war with Iraq. BBC too.
