Original Note:
NPR is leaving Twitter due to Twitter's choice to mark them as a government-funded media organization. NPR does receive US government funds in the form of grants, which does not give up editorial control. NPR would be better classified as an independent news organization. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/12/business/npr-twitter-suspension.html https://www.npr.org/about-npr/178660742/public-radio-finances
