National Public Radio (NPR), on the other hand, is a Democratic Party initiative. Unlike the CBC, NPR was never designed to be a network.

This became a successful model that today has more than a thousand local radio stations as part of the NPR system. Jeffrey Dvorkin is the former managing editor and chief journalist at CBC Radio and former VP-news and information at NPR.
