NPR president who said truth is a 'distraction' is summoned by DOGE

The embattled National Public Radio president, who once called truth a 'distraction,' has agreed to testify before Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) congressional subcommittee. Marjorie Taylor Greene, the DOGE subcommittee chair, called on NPR and PBS bosses to testify on Capitol Hill to defend the government funding they use to share 'systematically biased content.' Musk posted a clip of Katherine Maher, the NPR president, calling truth a 'distraction' and captioned it 'Defund NPR. It should survive on its own.' NPR responded to the summons, stating they 'welcome the opportunity' to testify and prides themselves 'to the highest standards of journalism.'
