Critics are taking aim at NPR after its editor Uri Berliner put a spotlight on the news outlet's 'obsession' with diversity in a stunning essay that went viral.

Uri Berliner, the senior business editor and a 25-year NPR veteran, went viral for exposing how liberal groupthink has captured the NPR newsroom and drew significant attention to diversity becoming the news outlet's so-called 'North Star' following the death of George Floyd in 2020.

'I wouldn't have a problem with it if we were also looking at trying to figure out people's perspective, their viewpoint. I didn't love it, but I also think it was very limited.
