Really though NPR will demand more money from the member stations.
NPR’s annual budget of about $300 million
It's an extortion racket, local stations need NPR so they can charge whatever they want.
What the fuck are they doing with $300 million? They don't even do 5 minutes of internet search to investigate the stories they air, and their stories are just regurgitated AP/Reuters.

As of about 10 years ago people like Steve Inskeep and Renee Montane were making around $400k per year. I can only imagine that's doubled by now.
