Seems simple enough, even for trumpers.
Maybe not. trumpers are not too bright.
Guess this has to be explained to knuckledraggers ---- opting not to carry something LIVE is not in any way the same as "suppressing".
What a dumbass.
Say, aren't you the same deep intellect who tried to tell us that a reporter who would not lie about what he witnessed comprised "stupidity"? How'd that ever work out? Figure your own point out yet?
Still waiting on that. Any year now.
No thanks. We need public radio and television.Irrelevant here. KUOW is not "government funded".
VOA is though. Radio/TV Marti is. Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty is. And they have gihugic transmitters here in North Cackalackee, which I toured recently, so there is literally a place for government funded media. It's quite the sprawling complex, with yuge buildings and acres of antennas.
You'll be happy to know they are sleeping the half-gigawatt xmtrs because they just cost too damn much to run. That's at least SOME of your tax dollars "saved" eh?
Back in the 1918 pandemic, the one commonly but erroneously called the "Spanish" Flu, and the one that killed Rump's grandfather, this country did indeed have a Ministry of Information, euphemistically called the Committee for Public Information, which did indeed publish newsletters like this
and crank out an endless stream of lying propaganda news releases to flood newspapers, the medium of the time, and more importantly to censor, in tandem with the Sedition Act of 1918, news of the pandemic's existence, thus living thousands upon thousands to die, unprotected.
THAT is what government media looks like. And we should note, what government censorship looks like as well.
But that's in no way related here. KUOW is licensed to the University of Washington and supported by its listeners with augmented corporate underwriting. It isn't run by the government. So go sell shit somewhere else, I know better and I'll say so.
Shame Henry. You either don't know about all this and are purporting to, in which case you're a fraud, or you do know about all this and are deliberately lying about it, in which case you're a fraud.
Absolutely NO government funding from any level. No federal money. No state money. No county money. No city, town or village money. No money from state operated institutions of "education" or indoctrination. Only voluntary contributions from actual humans. No union money. NO corporate money.
Of course that would dash your aspirations of being Propaganda Minister....

And we need it more that most "developed" nations that do a FAR better job of it than we do. Deutsche Welle in Germany. NHK in Japan. Even CBC in Canada. It's a common conventional wisdom that the reason so much of the better parts of the public radio we do have comes from Minnesota and Wisconsin and New York, is that those places are close enough to Canada to hear what real public broadcasting can sound like. But the Cult of Ignorance propagandists like Henry here with his inchoate verb-free drooling don't want nunna that thar lurrnin' goin' on. Edumacated public on the public's dime? No no, that thar's danjerus and shit.

Sunday at 11:25 AM
KUOW 94.9FM in Seattle, one of the first epicenters of the US Coronavirus outbreak, has discontinued live broadcasts of White House Coronavirus briefings due to the massive pattern of disinformation therein.
Station statement March 25 (in part):
>> After airing the White House briefings live for two weeks, a pattern of false information and exaggeration increasingly had many at KUOW questioning whether these briefings were in the best service of our mission—to create and serve a more informed public. Of even greater concern was the potential impact of false information on the health and safety of our community.
A sampling of exaggerations and false information that were not fact checked in real time:
● “Nobody knew there’d be a pandemic or an epidemic of this proportion,” President Trump said at a live White House briefing on March 19 despite warnings from the U.S. Intelligence community earlier this year.
● “You’re seeing very few empty shelves,” our listeners heard live from President Trump on March 20. Local reporting shows many stores are out of basic supplies, including hand soap.
● We’re going to be able to make the drug chloroquine “available almost immediately” said President Trump on March 19. The president claimed, incorrectly, that the FDA had fast-tracked approval of its use to treat COVID-19. There isn't current medical evidence of the efficacy of that drug in treating COVID-19.
Knowing this a very fluid situation, we will revisit this decision daily. <<
KUOW will continue to treat all opportunities for live preemption on a case-by-case basis weighing for importance, news value and immediacy of need-to-know. But be clear, KUOW and NPR will continue to cover White House briefings and share relevant information from federal government and public health sources in the format most useful to our listeners. <<
Inasmuch as broadcast licensing requires responsible operation as a public trust, this is a shining example of exercising it. As readers know the last named piece of misinformation has already led to an unnecessary death and hospitalization of a couple who followed that advice. so denying destructive disinformation the chance to damage the public is exactly the right call.

What in the fuck is WRONG with you? Do you get paid by the stupid?
Ignorant slut, I just posted the entire OP. WHO THE FUCK wrote the notice? WHO THE FUCK took the action??
Fucking dumbasses. NPR is a fucking NETWORK. It SUPPLIES PROGRAMS to stations, which then choose which ones to run. News, documentaries, interviews, cultural, entertainment, including music. Way too many programs for any station to carry, so they pick from a menu. News is one of them as is live news feeds.
NOTHING IN THE WORLD CHANGED ABOUT THAT. Those feeds are still there, always were, always will be.
KUOW, which is what we call a "station", is ONE of those "stations" that carry this or that from NPR, from APM, from other sources, or from their own local productions. KUOW, that single station, announced it would discontinue THAT LIVE FEED.
THAT HAS NOTHING TO FUCKING DO WITH NPR, DUMBASS.
And by the way as long as you're paid to act stupid on the internet KUOW, that single station, has been around way longer than NPR has anyway.
Don't watch it or listen to it. Don't expect you donate to it. Our local radio is completely supported by the listening public. No joke.NPR is a jokeNo thanks. We need public radio and television.Irrelevant here. KUOW is not "government funded".
VOA is though. Radio/TV Marti is. Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty is. And they have gihugic transmitters here in North Cackalackee, which I toured recently, so there is literally a place for government funded media. It's quite the sprawling complex, with yuge buildings and acres of antennas.
You'll be happy to know they are sleeping the half-gigawatt xmtrs because they just cost too damn much to run. That's at least SOME of your tax dollars "saved" eh?
Back in the 1918 pandemic, the one commonly but erroneously called the "Spanish" Flu, and the one that killed Rump's grandfather, this country did indeed have a Ministry of Information, euphemistically called the Committee for Public Information, which did indeed publish newsletters like this
and crank out an endless stream of lying propaganda news releases to flood newspapers, the medium of the time, and more importantly to censor, in tandem with the Sedition Act of 1918, news of the pandemic's existence, thus living thousands upon thousands to die, unprotected.
THAT is what government media looks like. And we should note, what government censorship looks like as well.
But that's in no way related here. KUOW is licensed to the University of Washington and supported by its listeners with augmented corporate underwriting. It isn't run by the government. So go sell shit somewhere else, I know better and I'll say so.
Shame Henry. You either don't know about all this and are purporting to, in which case you're a fraud, or you do know about all this and are deliberately lying about it, in which case you're a fraud.
Absolutely NO government funding from any level. No federal money. No state money. No county money. No city, town or village money. No money from state operated institutions of "education" or indoctrination. Only voluntary contributions from actual humans. No union money. NO corporate money.
Of course that would dash your aspirations of being Propaganda Minister....
And we need it more that most "developed" nations that do a FAR better job of it than we do. Deutsche Welle in Germany. NHK in Japan. Even CBC in Canada. It's a common conventional wisdom that the reason so much of the better parts of the public radio we do have comes from Minnesota and Wisconsin and New York, is that those places are close enough to Canada to hear what real public broadcasting can sound like. But the Cult of Ignorance propagandists like Henry here with his inchoate verb-free drooling don't want nunna that thar lurrnin' goin' on. Edumacated public on the public's dime? No no, that thar's danjerus and shit.
PBS including NPR receive federal tax moneyDon't watch it or listen to it. Don't expect you donate to it. Our local radio is completely supported by the listening public. No joke.NPR is a jokeNo thanks. We need public radio and television.Irrelevant here. KUOW is not "government funded".

Interesting how for most humans tantrums have stopped by age 21.Ignorance is bliss they say.stop itThe welfare bums at NPR banned live coverage of the trump china virus press conferenceonce again you ignore the substance of the issue,,,they want to ban the live broadcast and later edit out anything they dont like or disagree with,,,Thats liberal welfare bums trying to suppress speech that they dont likeOnce again, whatever Trump says, the idiots on this board parrot, word for word.An NPR station in Seattle said that it no longer will carry live coverage of President Donald Trump’s coronavirus briefings because of concerns that they feature unchecked misleading or false information.
“KUOW is monitoring White House briefings for the latest news on the coronavirus — and we will continue to share all news relevant to Washington State with our listeners,” the station tweeted. “However, we will not be airing the briefings live due to a pattern of false or misleading information provided that cannot be fact checked in real time.”
Most recently, Trump has called for lifting of social distancing guidelines in the near future, perhaps by Easter, even though public health professionals are still grappling with the spread of the virus. He also has made false claims about the availability of tests, the timeline for finding a vaccine and the potential benefits of a treatment that includes the ingredient chloroquine. While there is some promising study of its potential use, it has not it has not been approved for treatment. NBC News reported on one Arizona man who died after ingesting chloroquine phosphate, and his wife said that they learned about its use after watching a briefing. The chloroquine they used was part of a product use to clean fish tanks, not for medical purposes.
Common sense, on the other hand, dictates if the spread of Covid19 increases with exposure to other people, avoid other people.
Seems simple enough, even for trumpers.
Maybe not. trumpers are not too bright.
Guess this has to be explained to knuckledraggers ---- opting not to carry something LIVE is not in any way the same as "suppressing".
What a dumbass.
Say, aren't you the same deep intellect who tried to tell us that a reporter who would not lie about what he witnessed comprised "stupidity"? How'd that ever work out? Figure your own point out yet?
Still waiting on that. Any year now.
your credibility is shot bud so go get more cookies from your mom,,,
Once again you fail to be able to read. Nobody "banned" anything.
all the public will hear from NPR is what they want you to hear
Twenty THIRD time now ----

Sunday at 11:25 AM
KUOW 94.9FM in Seattle, one of the first epicenters of the US Coronavirus outbreak, has discontinued live broadcasts of White House Coronavirus briefings due to the massive pattern of disinformation therein.
Station statement March 25 (in part):
>> After airing the White House briefings live for two weeks, a pattern of false information and exaggeration increasingly had many at KUOW questioning whether these briefings were in the best service of our mission—to create and serve a more informed public. Of even greater concern was the potential impact of false information on the health and safety of our community.
A sampling of exaggerations and false information that were not fact checked in real time:
● “Nobody knew there’d be a pandemic or an epidemic of this proportion,” President Trump said at a live White House briefing on March 19 despite warnings from the U.S. Intelligence community earlier this year.
● “You’re seeing very few empty shelves,” our listeners heard live from President Trump on March 20. Local reporting shows many stores are out of basic supplies, including hand soap.
● We’re going to be able to make the drug chloroquine “available almost immediately” said President Trump on March 19. The president claimed, incorrectly, that the FDA had fast-tracked approval of its use to treat COVID-19. There isn't current medical evidence of the efficacy of that drug in treating COVID-19.
Knowing this a very fluid situation, we will revisit this decision daily. <<
KUOW will continue to treat all opportunities for live preemption on a case-by-case basis weighing for importance, news value and immediacy of need-to-know. But be clear, KUOW and NPR will continue to cover White House briefings and share relevant information from federal government and public health sources in the format most useful to our listeners. <<
Inasmuch as broadcast licensing requires responsible operation as a public trust, this is a shining example of exercising it. As readers know the last named piece of misinformation has already led to an unnecessary death and hospitalization of a couple who followed that advice. so denying destructive disinformation the chance to damage the public is exactly the right call.
