Katherine Maher, the new CEO of National Public Radio (NPR), previously bragged about pushing censorship on behalf of government officials.
In a clip posted to X by journalist Christopher Rufo, Maher, who previously served as CEO of Wikipedia, said she “took a very active approach to disinformation,” based on “conversations with government” through 2020. Maher also said that approach was established as “a model for future elections outside the U.S.”
