Liberal leaning news outlet National Public Radio (NPR) has now deleted a tweet calling the much beloved and respected former prime minister of Japan Shinzo Abe a ‘Divisive Arch-Conservative’ immediately following his death at the hands of an assassin.

As The Daily Wire reports:

Publicly funded NPR deleted a tweet Friday morning calling former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe a “divisive arch-conservative” after Abe was assassinated.

The original tweet read as follows, according to a screenshot from Kimberly Ross.

“Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, a divisive arch-conservative and one of his nation’s most powerful and influential figures, has died after being shot during a campaign speech Friday in western Japan, hospital officials said.”

NPR later issued a separate tweet regarding Abe’s death.

Conservatives on Twitter immediately jumped to Abe’s defense, shredding NPR in the process:

  1. Maybe a reason the conservatives are gaining some new liberals. How rude and inaccurate can you be? Not an inspiring quality.

  2. I’ll never be an NPR fan again…too woke…sorry to all the great programs of the past, but they’ve lost me and many, many of my peers and contemporaries…

    1. The 2023 Congress needs to DEFUND both NPR and PBS! Liberal propaganda outlets don’t serve the people!

    1. WE are the media czar. If enough people stop supporting these platforms they will reform their ways or go under.

      1. not necessarily true. look at CNN and MSNBC. their viewership is pathetic. although I will say the new head of CNN has said he will be making some drastic changes. will wait and see.

    2. No. A head of media – maybe – but this is the US – no more Czars…. that’s not in the constitution.

  3. Why do we still pay for NPR if they just spout communist propaganda (misinformation)? Its no longer useful/truthful and needs to be shut down or privately financed

    1. That right! They also do their own fund-raising from viewers, so we should NOT be funding either station with TAXPAYER funds.

  4. This is nothing compared to the unspeakably vile things so many right-wing organizations and individual conservative commentators have said about such good Democratic people as Joe & Jill Biden, Barack and Michelle Obama, Bill & Hillary Clinton , Alexandria Ocasio Cortez and others !!!

  5. I stopped listening to NPR opinions and news back in the 70’s. After returning from S.E. Asia I had my eyes opened wide to the reality of “the lying press”.
    I sought out international news sources which most have now been caught up in the same progressive, Marxist propaganda.
