NPR went after conservative journalist Christopher Rufo after he reposted old leftist tweets from NPR CEO Katherine Maher from before she was at the outlet.

Rufo, a senior fellow at The Manhattan Institute, highlighted several of Maher's posts from her X account, formerly known as Twitter.
Rufo commented on Folkenflik’s article on Tuesday, stating, 'NPR is now claiming that I am ‘targeting’ its CEO by highlighting her own tweets.

In a statement Monday defending her posts, Maher said, 'In America everyone is entitled to free speech as a private citizen.
