This article merely states that 1% of NPR's funding comes directly from Federal funding. The article was cited to make it seem that NPR received its funding primarily from corporate sponsorships. It did not make clear that it makes the plurality of its revenue from sliding scale dues based on local member radio stations' revenue and number of listeners, and that the local radio stations' revenues come primarily from listener contributions and grants. A much more direct and complete source for this subject is https://www.npr.org/about-npr/178660742/public-radio-finances.
