19. Depends on the show
I don't think any of them would constitute right wing, but that means different things to different people.

Their flagship news shows ('Morning Edition' and 'All Things Considered') seem pretty dead-center to me. Diane Rehm is quite open about being liberal. Terri Gross is a liberal too. She's more subtle about expressing it, but it's pretty obvious if you listen alot. 'Talk of the Nation' seems pretty much in the center (maybe an ever so slight tinge to the left) and while I haven't heard 'On the Media' a whole lot, they sure are hostile to Fox, which might say something about how they lean.

If you added it all up, I would say they are pretty close to the center, maybe a little bit to the left.
