Goes to show everyone that the community organizer and his regime as well as the dimwitted jackass party that claims to be for the American people could care less about them and would forgo funding of the National Institutes of Health from starting clinical trials for cancer patients and others facing possibly terminal illnesses only to give $445,000,000 to PBS.

Had this happened during GWB administration, the liberal press would be screaming to impeach GWB!

And yet, not a peep from the liberal press about what Barry did!

Pathetic, evil Obama regime!

Goes to show that the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is an essential government employee.

I am not kidding.

The official propaganda arms of the DNC (PBS/NPR) must be funded.

The semi-official propaganda arms (ABCBSMSNBCNNBCFAUX) are willing volunteers...

Wouldn’t it be awesome if Cruz held another (SHORT HOPEFULLY, for his sake) filibuster on the Senate floor to chronicle Obama’s abuses of power before or after the shutdown. Other senators could follow, of course, if any (aside from Mike Lee) have the courage. Bob

Locking in a major propaganda arm, but I think CPB would have complied for free. Even CPB can’t spend nearly a half a billion all at once. Why the enormous cash dump?

Like Pelosi said, they’ve cut ‘to the bone’.

Sesame Street actors are worth tens of millions. They need to float another meme than “Romney/Cruz/et al want to kill Big Bird”.

Just called my congressman Steve Palazzo-the staffer’s reply to this was “niiiice” in a sardonic tone, and was anxious for the information-hope they can use it.

Then, I hope we can settle on the fact that PBS/NPR are part of their bones/basic structure and support.

Are you s*****g me?
These Senate asshats and Hussein flying monkeys are adding insult to injury!

If this doesn't light a fire under every informed, thinking and (non governmental) working American, nothing will.

HELLO??!!?

This is so transparently an attempt to perpetuate the progressive propaganda media that it's impossible to ignore.

How do we force them to rescind that?

“If Public Broadcasting doesn’t do it, who will?”
My response would be, in most cases: Hopefully nobody!
The time given to actual programming in relation to their “ad free listing of their corp sponsors” and upcoming programs is about the same as network TV. Add to that the burden of their bi-weekly, monthly beg-a-thons and to be truthful, I’d rather have commercials.
