I noted, a bit ago in the media bias post, my inclination towards NPR. As to why, I submit Laura Sullivan’s report today during All Things Considered on the economics of prisons and bail. Really a solid piece of journalism.

They are here because they can’t make bail — sometimes as little as $50. Some will wait behind bars for as long as a year before their cases make it to court. And it will cost taxpayers $9 billion this year to house them.
