    A rare, shitty NPR article.

    I know what you meant, but to clarify for like 80% of the /c/news comments section’s audience who don’t read beyond the headline in favor of learning what they should think from the top comment, this is PBS News Hour, not NPR.

    (Also not an article; it’s a transcript of a newscast.)
