National Public Radio (NPR) has sued the Trump administration, challenging an executive order that cuts federal funding to NPR and PBS. The lawsuit, filed in federal court, alleges the order violates the First Amendment by targeting NPR for perceived bias in its news coverage. The White House defends the action, citing examples of alleged bias in NPR's reporting. NPR argues the order is retaliatory and threatens the existence of public radio, emphasizing that only 1% of its funding comes directly from the federal government. The suit seeks to permanently block the order.
