I appeared on WAMU's The Kojo Nnamdi Show in Washington, DC on Oct. 20. Thirty minutes later I got this response:

"I was outraged by your comment today on the Kojo Nnamdi program that NPR should have more people like Glenn Beck who represent a certain point of view not heard on NPR," wrote Stefanie Weldon, of Silver Spring, MD. "The reason he isn't heard on NPR is because, like Holocaust deniers, flat-earthers and Creation Science proponents, NPR used to understand that not all points of view deserve airing. You apparently disagree and think racism, sexism and mendacity have a place at NPR. Until you convince me otherwise, not one penny of my money will go to pay your salary -- I guess that means not one penny of my money will go to NPR."...

"I've said it before, and I will reiterate it. NPR is a mainstream news outlet." November 2, 2009 - Ombudsman's Blog
