WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 National Public Radio is quitting Twitter over the social media<\/a> company\u2019s recent actions under owner Elon Musk to stamp it with labels the news<\/a> organization says are meant to undermine its credibility.<\/p>\n

\u201cNPR\u2019s organizational accounts will no longer be active on Twitter because the platform is taking actions that undermine our credibility by falsely implying that we are not editorially independent,\u201d the news organization said in a statement Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Last week, Twitter labeled NPR’s main account as \u201cstate-affiliated media\u201d on the social media site, a label also used to identify media outlets that are controlled or heavily influenced by authoritarian governments. Twitter later changed the label to \u201cgovernment-funded media\u201d and gave it to at least one other public news organization, the BBC.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are not putting our journalism on platforms that have demonstrated an interest in undermining our credibility and the public\u2019s understanding of our editorial independence,\u201d NPR’s statement said.<\/p>\n

NPR’s chief communications officer, Isabel Lara, said in an email that \u201cNPR journalists and employees will decide on their own if they wish to remain on the platform, same for NPR member stations as they\u2019re independently owned and operated.\u201d<\/p>\n

NPR does receive U.S. government funding through grants from federal agencies and departments, along with the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The company said it accounts for less than 1% of NPR\u2019s annual operating budget.<\/p>\n
