This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Not sure I understand your NPR comment. Distrust among Dem/Lean Dem is 3%, the lowest level tied with The Atlantic and Axios (for some reason). Affirmative trust among Dem/Lean Dem is 47%, which isn't the highest but clearly in a very trusted category.
Sure, as an absolute rust number 47% may seem low, but the distrust number is the more important one, and in general there's less affirmative trust than expected across the board for generally reliable news sources.
