Bill Maher tells NPR interviewer he views outlet as 'far extreme of the left'

Comedian Bill Maher called out NPR as part of the "far extreme of the left" during an interview with NPR's Steve Inskeep on Wednesday, even joking he was surprised he had the "Real Time" host on the show.

Inskeep spoke to Maher on NPR's "Newsmakers" podcast and covered a range of topics, including his meeting with President Donald Trump, his career and his Kennedy Center award. Maher frequently criticizes Trump and Republicans on his show and podcast, but also does not hold back on critiquing the left.
