Recently I listened to the Radio Diaries podcast called “The Man Who Put the ‘P’ in NPR” in which they interviewed Bill Siemering. Bill is credited with writing the original mission statement for NPR back in 1969. While this is no longer the official mission statement of the organization, I believe NPR still upholds many of the values laid out in the original manifesto. I decided rather than just share a link to the podcast or original text I would create a series of snippets of the mission statement.

I love this. Also, I identify with logical positivism: life has no meaning, until you give it one.
It’s good enough for us that somebody, somewhere, knows food production well enough to serve the rest of us with all we need to eat, each day of our lives. If that is true, why isn’t it good enough for someone else to know multiplication and the contents of the Bill of Rights? Is the story of bread, from tilled ground to our table, less relevant to our lives than the history of the thirteen colonies? Couldn’t one make a case for the relevance of a subject that informs choices we make daily as in, What’s for dinner? Isn’t ignorance of our food sources causing problems as diverse as overdependence on petroleum, and an epidemic of diet-related diseases?
