Bob Edwards was the voice of NPR’s Morning Edition for decades. He was an amazing journalist and just a great human being. As an affiliate station’s news director and local ME host, I couldn’t imagine the morning without his voice filling the studio. Meeting him was a favorite memory from that time.
I am happy to listen and contribute to NPR now considering they’re as close as you can get in the U.S. to unbiased national journalism at this point. They aren’t perfect either, but they’re miles above most of the other options.
They are among the best if you’re restricted to the US, it’s true.
