“And that was the latest on-the-ground coverage about how the inflation crisis is destroying Venezuelan farms. Next, have you ever wanted a pumpkin spice latte bigger....(whispers excitedly) than a trente?”

"Disturbing reports out of Washington this morning that every National Public Radio employee, and indeed the non-profit corporation itself, have resigned in response to allegations of sexual harassment towards each other, themselves, entire cities, and the corporation's own office furniture. One series of text messages, leaked to the online gossip magazine TMZ, reportedly relays a conversation between Morning Edition host Steve Innskeep and Lynn Rosetto Kasper, host of the nationally syndicated cooking program the Splendid Table, in which Innskeep is quoted as saying 'You see that f-ing ficcus on the fourth floor? I would F the S out of that thing if I got it alone.' To which Rosetto Casper responded: 'L-O-L. It looks like such a slut, I would love to lick this 50 year old balsamic from the Modena region of Italy off it's sweaty slut bark.' More on this, as it develops." Also: "I'm Glynn Washington and here is another anecdote from my weird culty upbringing and time as a Foreign Service Officer in Japan."

Plays a comedy sketch where someone goes on for 10 minutes about Haaaaarvaaaaard and someone's son getting into Haaaaarvaaaaard and then the punchline is Yale. Raucous laughter fills a Victorian theater smelling of musty velvet filled with old-east-cost-money walking corpses while everyone else tries to figure out what the hell was so funny.

Space Camp fuckup posted:And now for a completely objective story on the feasibility of Medicare for All brought to you by our partners at Kaiser Permanente *isn't really much better than Fox or MSNBC, but tricks the rubes listening into thinking it's Objective and Fact-based by using a certain tone of voice* NPR takes advantage of the fact that many liberals understand "lying is wrong" but don't understand that there are other ways to deceive or mislead the listener. In the case of NPR this is usually through using a skeptical tone of voice when talking about the left and just sort of implying that there are "serious concerns" about their positions (though it's often even worse than this when the topic is something related to foreign policy). To its credit, NPR can be okay when it's covering things completely unrelated to politics. Captain Beans posted:who knows how the gently caress this guy got on the radio, he sounds like a snake person Haha yeah, every time that guy shows up I'm stunned that he is allowed to repeatedly speak on the radio. He doesn't sound like a snake person to me, though; it just sounds like his tongue is massively swollen and getting in the way when he tries to talk.

*Wastes pledge dollars trying to convince people that listening to Paula Poundstone speak is fun* “You’ve answered one question right out of ten! That’s good enough for our smug host to record a voicemail message for you! We’d like to thank our plutocrat guest Steve Ballmer, and the Chase bank auditorium, reminding you the status quo is great!”

If your name is Marco/Marko, you should be legally required to take a full second pause between saying your first and last names so people don't have to guess whether or not you're Irish.
