Transcript
00:00I'd like to ask unanimous request to speak for one minute to revise and extend my remarks.
00:07Without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute.
00:10I think it's important for this body to take a few minutes to discuss and deal with the
00:18recent headlines regarding the National Public Radio editor who made public that 87 out of
00:2987 members of their editorial newsroom staff registered Democrat, not one registered Republican.
00:37It's obviously of interest and it should be of particular interest to fair-minded people
00:42everywhere and Republicans in particular.
00:46We right now are losing the culture and the Republican Party, you know, we're the ones
00:51who stand to thwart the Constitution, try to defend it, try to keep America the great
00:56country it's always been.
00:58It is a very difficult thing to get sympathy in our quest from the public as a whole when
01:06news outlets have an overwhelmingly left-wing, anti-American bias.
01:12I would like to congratulate, normally a Democrat, Uri Berliner for being able to step out and
01:18try to publicize a true diversity problem at NPR and hope that in the future our appropriations
01:26committee discusses this problem.
01:29Thank you.
01:30For what purpose does the gentleman from Illinois seek recognition?
