NPR tweets the Declaration of Independence, morons freak out - MaroonBells - 07-05-2017
Hundreds of people didn't recognize the words and thought NPR was calling for revolution. One response: "So NPR is calling for revolution. Interesting way to condone violence, while sounding patriotic. Your implications are clear."
Man, you can't make this stuff up.

whats funny/sad about this... NPR has significantly more educated listeners than most news sources, also is significantly more likely to be listened to by dems than repubs, also people of higher income levels get their news from NPR over other sources.

i see that is what the story says they are, i didnt see how they determined that from some what I saw except one had "deplorable" in her handle. not really sure how big of a story this actually was or if it was just a few drunks getting caught up in something. I am betting that there were likely anti trump people that were not sure of what was going down as well, but that wouldnt create clicks.@JimmyinSD said:
