Tech billionaire Elon Musk criticized NPR CEO Katherine Maher for her beliefs about truth and objectivity. The controversy stemmed from Maher’s comments on a CNN appearance and a 2022 TED Talk. Senator John Kennedy and Musk highlighted Maher’s stance on truth, with Musk suggesting she doesn’t believe in it. The concerns raised over Maher’s leadership at NPR were further fueled by the suspension of senior editor Uri Berliner, who raised issues of political bias at the organization.
