You can sign a petition calling on the US government to stop funding NPR (National Public Radio) by going here. NPR is very strongly anti-Israel at US taxpayer expense.

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004. You can contact me at: IsraelMatzav at gmail dot com

I believe only 2% of NPR's budget is tax supported.
Yes, 2% too many and the principal is important.
You can also show support for cutting funding for NPR on Eric Cantor's "You Cut" website: http://republicanwhip.house.gov/YouCut/
carl,
enough
npr and public tv become campaign issues every election cycle...and they get a tiny bit of monies from the government...and provide much...including sesame street and other educational and information programming
and their reporting on israel is mostly balanced
they wont be defunded because the republicans need them as a boogeyman...just like they need abortion to remain legal
The majority of NPR's budget depends on private donations.
