National Public Radio is a Democratic Party organization, which over the years has become shameless in its dishonesty. But this really takes the cake:
National Public Radio (NPR), a taxpayer-supported and supposedly nonpartisan news network, falsely accused National Review editor-in-chief of using the “n-word” during a podcast interview with Megyn Kelly this week.
Under the headline, “Conservative editor-in-chief appears to use racial slur to refer to Haitian migrants,” NPR asserted — as if likely true — the claim that Lowry said a word that he did not, in fact, say, and which there is no evidence that he intended to say.
NPR’s claim is absurd. This is the exchange:
Ridiculous. @richlowry (not tagged here, natch) obviously got crossed up between 'immigrants' (short i) and migrants (long i) — started mispronouncing "migrants" with short i; instantly corrected himself with no embarrassment because it was patently a mispronunciation. Geez. https://t.co/a1EYDqp3kl

I understand that the Democrats are desperate. The election promises to come down to the wire, with an impossibly bad candidate, Kamala Harris, the only person standing in the way of another four years (assuming survival) of Donald Trump as president. But still, this is embarrassing. Shame on you, NPR.
