I think if you should have less faith in anything it's the increasing attitude (at least from what I see) that public media is not worth funding with tax dollars or personal donations because it becomes a mouthpiece for a political agenda you may not agree with, so they have to rely on advertising stay on the air.
That said, there does appear to be some political leaning to NPR, but it's not nearly as bad as the cable news outlets.
