juststartedfromBostonWho sent Trump back to the White HouseLove your show- I really appreciate the objectivity that you display more than in most other media outlets. A little disappointed that nothing was mentioned about the genocide in Gaza being a driving factor in Harris’ loss. Her campaign was HORRIBLE and literally relied on Americans that feared Trump to just vote for her rather than reaching out to her own base. Furthermore, she completely ignored and disregarded Arab Americans and GenZ’ers and instead, tried to gain “moderate” Republicans approval thinking that they would vote for her… delusional.

elee8866I expect better from NPRJust listened to the episode about why Christian’s continue to support Trump. In the intro it mentions that Trump has allegations of sexual assault. This is inaccurate and very misleading. He was found GUILTY of sexual assault. To not provide this information that a candidate that Christians are voting for is GUILTY of sexual assault is terrible reporting. I expect better from NPR.

Hate2bscrewedTotal PropagandaHow about some real reporting on the issues that matter, joy and hope doesn’t pay the bills. Be critical of all not the select. Or maybe your being led by the nose playing the ministry of propaganda”truth “. Bunch of hacks.

AuraMar1272Eric Garcetti CaseWho would have thought NPR doing real journalism??? Best chisme I have listened to in a long time. This case is shocking and scandalous and yet, unless you’re an LA local, no national news coverage has touched this. Hope this piece of journalism is a sign that NPR wants to do good investigative, unbiased work… but not getting my hopes too high.

MarkybixGoogle Project 2025The latest episode from Mon 7/8 is focused entirely on talking about Biden remaining at the top of the ticket when on Wed 7/3 he made it clear that he is staying in the race. This overreaction is coming from media and political insiders and isn’t helpful. How about you let it go and talk about the fascist architect of Project 2025 who just this week threatened bloodshed against the left? This is who the alternative (Trump) will surround himself with, yet instead of focusing on that the media is having a conniption because a good president and old man stumbled over his words in a debate. Meanwhile Trump can spew nonsense and ramble off topic for 90 minutes and be considered the “winner”. The blatant double standard is pathetic and downright dangerous.
-
Pam-a-Rama:):)Biden negative biasThe constant negative press about Biden has to stop or least be equally discussed as Trumps age, lies, and terrifying plans for the country. NPR used to be my trusted unbiased source for news.

midwestBlue6.1.24today on all things considered i couldn’t believe carrie johnson said trump had an alleged affair with stormy daniels. carrie, it is not alleged, it was part of the trial that it did happen and trump never testified under oath to deny it.

SamawhaaatLazy journalismI have been a lifelong liberal and strong supporter of NPR (including financially). I know you are trying to break down complex topics into bite size pieces, but it just feels LAZY. Opinion contributors to complex topics, sharing only one side that is an opinion without supporting facts. The Outside Agitators episode being the latest one. Do better.
-
EdorgsApril 13, 2024 podcastYour repetition of the Hamas generated figures for deaths attributed to Israel belies your bias in the Israel-Hamas war. You state without attribution 33,000 Palestinian civilians have been killed. How many are ‘fighters’? How many killed by Hamas and PIJ misfired rockets? How does this compare to other countries fighting terrorist organizations in urban environments? Honestly misrepresenting details such as this is unconscionable for a journalistic organization purporting to present unbiased information to listeners.

Md713Former NPR subscriber, now it’s just Israeli propagandaI used to listen to and donate to NPR. No longer, they are clearly Israeli propaganda and in their eyes, despite the outrageous contradictions and double standards carried out by Israel, continue to defend them and the mass gen0cide they are carrying out- disgusting.
-
RAKGBPure excellenceAn interesting and important, curated look at what's happening, well presented.

mundane ”the rock” johnsonIt’s half adsHow is this public radio when there is so many ads and a premium feed? I understand investigate reporting is expensive but this is crazy! Donations to npr are tax deductible- is the framework the same for this?

lindsay.loveDo better with coverage in GazaLanguage used in your titles, descriptions and from your hosts is disrespectful and upholds Israeli propaganda talking points. Esp the Ramadan episode - how disgraceful.

david steinborstOkToo many ads for the length of the show

WackratAds in the Plus versionI paid the fee for the plus version of this podcast, and yet I heard a Capital One ad, in the Plus version. Is NPR following in Amazon’s footsteps, in which paying the extortion fee doesn’t kill the ads?

Mr. CleverDaily news that’s deeper than Up FirstIf you like Up First, you’ll like this one. It goes deeper into a single topic of the day, but still gives you the info you need in under 15 minutes. Great hosts and great reporting.

jg1234568Ozempic episode lackingI found it disappointing that in the episode about ozempic that the host didn’t address the impact of the drug being used as a weight loss treatment on the availability of the drug for diabetic patients who rely on this drug for their livelihood, and how that ends up being a class and race issue

labugreenTone deaf and cowardly reporting amidst genocideIncredibly tone deaf piece on Israeli hostages “rebuilding their lives” while over half of Gaza’s buildings have been destroyed, 20,00 people, 8,000 of which are children, have been killed by Israeli bombings, and nearly 8,000 Palestinians are currently held hostage in Israeli prisons. But you don’t bother to ask how those people will rebuild their lives. You don’t bother to ask why Palestinians have had to resort to armed resistance after 75 years of occupation. You can’t even say the word genocide. Absolutely disgusting and cowardly journalism.
-
Ricky TenderkissExcellent, essentialA great daily snapshot of the news, often through the lens of a single issue, presented concisely. I rather miss the local news roundup which used to end each episode, but in its absence I’ve discovered more of my local station’s news podcasts — plus a few other community-focused nonprofit news platforms — so it’s all good. No notes. I dig this show, I dig listening right away or later at night or five in a row on a weekend, one way or another I listen to this show, and I feel all the better informed and prepared to take on the world for it. Good job, keep it up!!

Smashing ants :)No care about murdered Palestinian babiesProducing a show about Israeli mental health while thousands of Palestinian babies have been slaughtered is insensitive, evil and vile. Israelis are at the beach and going to brunch, living their best lives. While a few miles away, entire families and homes are being destroyed. NPR is absolutely trash for posting this.

Bgirl2849Excellent News podcastLove this recap of the stories I missed from not listening in the morning. Thrilled they don't include Sunday Morning (the host on Sundays has a HORRIBLE voice). Also posting this to counter those people who think this is a FB page and are posting their opinions on individual stories instead of the entire podcast.)

Ken Rudin JunkieHeard it all beforeI expected more from this program than a rebroadcast of a story or stories that previously aired on the Morning Edition or All Things Considered. Unlike it’s counterpart, Up First, which is clear about the fact that it is simply highlighting that days top Morning Edition stories; this is literally just a rebroadcast of an earlier segment from a regular NPR broadcast that may be days, perhaps even weeks old. Now due to funding issues, this is sometimes the third or fourth time go round for a segment by the time it is aired here. If the point is to give an opportunity to rehear an important story, why not add additional information that didn’t make it to the original broadcast. I am reluctant to unsubscribe, because I do find the LA curated segment at the end of the broadcast to be informative; although, I can no longer rely on that segment making it into the podcast. It would be helpful if there was a time stamp, so I could simply forward to that segment.

BlynnningDisappointedWhat happened to the integrity of NPR? It’s hard to listen to a podcast and expect honest reporting when it advertises not only an Israeli University, but one in Jerusalem. One can’t claim to show non-bias reporting while talking funding from an oppressive government. That’s like talking about the challenges for those seeking abortion now while listening to an ad declaring abortions are murder.
-
a-fellow-listenerGuests Need to be RespectedI feel upset and disappointed after listening to Ari Shapiro’s tone and word choice while interviewing David Simon for the Hollywood writer’s strike episode. These came off to me as disrespectful and unnecessarily hostile. If I’m listening to a guest being interviewed, I want to hear the best of their perspectives brought out by the host giving them the basic dignity that every person deserves. If that basic respect isn’t upheld, I’d rather listen elsewhere.
-
Michael SticeAbortionsIt’s great.Why not!
-
B's BphoneJournalistic ToneI wish this (and other NPR podcasts) would be open to recrafting their tone. There’s a way the hosts/reporters/journalists of their podcast speak to certain guests that is incredibly condescending, leading and sometimes dismissive. It’s easy to tell when the host (especially) Consider This podcast is engaged in the story/content versus when this host asks engages in a manner that’s leading or pitying of the interviewee. It’s so disappointing at times.
