As of recent data, NPR receives about 1% of its total revenue from federal funding through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB). This funding has been relatively stable over the years, but NPR primarily relies on donations from listeners, member stations, and corporate sponsorships for the majority of its financial support. Overall, public funding plays a minor role in NPR's overall budget.
From NPR's site: "While NPR does not receive any direct federal funding, it does receive a small number of competitive grants from CPB and federal agencies like the Department of Education and the Department of Commerce. This funding amounts to approximately 2% of NPR's overall revenues."
The motto of Public Radio International is 'Hear a different voice'.

The continuation of taxpayer funding for National Public Radio (NPR) is a matter of public debate. Proponents argue that such funding ensures diverse and high-quality programming that serves the public interest, particularly in underserved areas. Critics contend that taxpayer money should not support media outlets, advocating for a fully market-driven model. Ultimately, the decision should balance the value of accessible public media against the desire for fiscal responsibility.
