The American president spoke about the National Public Radio of the United States (NPR), which, according to him, he simply adores. At the same time, Biden stressed that not everyone is enthusiastic about the activities of this media outlet, citing a well-known businessman as an example. Earlier, Musk said on Twitter (blocked in Russia) that it is necessary to stop funding NPR. “The best way to make National Public Radio disappear is for Elon Musk to buy it,” Biden wittily said.
Musk told Fox News that he does not consider himself a “big fan” of Biden, despite the fact that the billionaire voted for him in the last presidential election. In turn, US National Public Radio received a “pro-government US media” badge on Twitter (owned by Musk), making it impossible for NPR to update its microblogs on this social network. At the same time, the White House stressed that they had absolute confidence in the independent nature of NPR’s activities.
