Senior Business Editor Uri Berliner is resigning from National Public Radio (NPR) a little more than a week after he publicly accused the network of espousing left-wing bias in an essay.

In a post to X on Wednesday, Berliner shared what he said was his resignation letter to NPR CEO Katherine Maher, who had lashed out at the editor’s critique.

“I am resigning from NPR, a great American institution where I have worked for 25 years,” Berliner said. “I don’t support calls to defund NPR. I respect the integrity of my colleagues and wish for NPR to thrive and do important journalism.”

He added, “But I cannot work in a newsroom where I am disparaged by a new CEO whose divisive views confirm the very problems at NPR I cite in my Free Press essay.”

The development comes one day after NPR’s media correspondent David Folkenflik reported that Berliner had been suspended without pay for five days and was issued a “final warning.”
