<p>Dozens of National Public Radio (NPR) employees signed on to a letter suggesting that their now-former senior business editor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/we-lost-americas-trust-npr-veteran-says-network-has-lost-its-way" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Uri Berliner</a> was spot on in his assessment of the liberal bias that has taken over the network.</p>
<p>New York Times media reporter Ben Mullin shared screenshots of the letter, addressed to CEO <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/nprs-new-ceo-scolds-25-year-veteran-for-expose-outing-networks-bias" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Katherine Maher</a> and Editor in Chief <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/npr-chief-hits-back-at-whistleblower-who-says-colleagues-secretly-agree" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Edith Chapin</a>, which claimed that Berliner&#8217;s essay in The Free Press had left many of them feeling as though they&#8217;d been personally attacked.</p>
<p>&#8220;About 50 NPR employees sign a letter to CEO Katherine Maher and top editor Edith Chapin calling for, among other things, a public rebuke of the &#8216;factual inaccuracies and elisions&#8217; in Uri Berliner’s Free Press essay,&#8221; Mullin&#8217;s caption read.</p>

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">new: About 50 NPR employees sign a letter to CEO Katherine Maher and top editor Edith Chapin calling for, among other things, a public rebuke of the “factual inaccuracies and elisions” in Uri  Berliner’s Free Press essay. <a href="https://t.co/jXc1R4J0G3">pic.twitter.com/jXc1R4J0G3</a></p>
<p>&mdash; Ben Mullin (@BenMullin) <a href="https://twitter.com/BenMullin/status/1780635242170028359?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 17, 2024</a></p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re writing to urge stronger support for staff who have had their journalistic expertise called into question by one of their own in a public forum,&#8221; the letter read. &#8220;We also urge more transparency regarding the consequences of making unauthorized public comments that seek to change NPR&#8217;s editorial direction.&#8221;</p>
<p>The letter went on to say that while both Chapin and Maher had shared their objections to Berliner&#8217;s claims — namely that the outlet been wholly disinterested in presenting stories that might hurt President Joe Biden or help former President Donald Trump — the employees were concerned that their efforts to spur policy changes through Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives were being undermined by Berliner&#8217;s public comments.</p>
<p>&#8220;Staff, many from marginalized backgrounds, have pushed for internal policy changes through mechanisms like the DEI accountability committee, sharing of affinity group guidelines, and an ad-hoc content review group,&#8221; they wrote, complaining that Berliner was getting more attention and apparent change from a short essay than they had after years of work.</p>
<p><b><a href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-9096" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://onelink.to/dwapp&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1700760801843000&amp;usg=AOvVaw2PQrVSrJfhxNb4LcARqniG">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP</a></b></p>
<p>Their concern on that point, they said, was that others within the network might get the idea that a pointed editorial was more effective at forcing change than going through proper channels.</p>
<p>They also complained that Berliner&#8217;s essay had &#8220;made their jobs harder&#8221; and called on Maher and Chapin to clearly &#8220;offer public support and defense of those individuals whose work was directly undermined by the opinion piece.&#8221;</p>
