EXCELLENT!!
“Though NPR and PBS were originally founded to produce non-biased, informational, and educational content, the outlets have since turned into taxpayer-funded propaganda machines for the radical left”
No, they were originally founded as part of Lyndon Johnson’s “Great Society” engorgement of the federal government as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Democratic Party. They’ve been a propaganda arm of the Democrats since their inception, as intended. All the way with LBJ.
Not Enough! This huge media empire was built on the backs of the American workers and taxpayers. This was a grand deception; an enterprise that co-opted the affectations of American culture and then directed their presentation to sell a humanist, atheist world view. The entire network and all its assets must be seized, assessed, and placed in the hands of conservatives. The foundations who are funding it should continue to do so, since only the political propaganda will be eliminated. Only then can these networks be liberated and only then can Justice be done.
Uncle Leo: Stop the show!
For me, it’s not whether they are propaganda or not. Like Planned Parenthood, I object for tax money to fund private organizations.
Don’t de-fund NPR.
Replace the Board with Conservatives and take it over.
Use it to do to the Dem’s what they have done. Turn it around and teach history and patriotism.
.
I won’t hold my breath as the entire Republican party is literally a steaming pile of sh&$.
They don’t need OUR money to survive. It’s a gravy train for them.
Viral?
If you cut the propaganda off the left won’t know what they’re supposed to do.
As another article posted, President Trump is ending the govt funded patronage of the left.
Like many of you I was always curious how the left raised so much money, and funded so many operations. Soros and his ilk were often given credit, but it is clear that soros and others were not spending their money, but ours and keeping large chunks for themselves as well.
The perfect scheme, and now far and wide these tentacles have spread has yet to be fully exposed.
How did organizations like cnn and pmsdnc fund such large and expensive operations with little viewership, and the answer always was contracts with cable companies. Perhaps a partial truth, but I think the govt teat was more likely.
With this scheme being exposed and even more importantly the funds being removed, the “power” of the left/legacy media are crashing.
I believe the term is normalcy bias at least to some extent. They have lived in this bubble for so long they can’t believe it’s ending so they carry on as before, often doubling down
This is making a splash in the news. But the actual dollar amounts in percentages that the government contributes to the running of this steaming pile of poop is about 1%. The last I heard it might have been 3%. But nonetheless, we’re not really funding. The whole s**t show.
I agree to shut it down and revoke the licensing. If re-established as a “civilian” radio corporation, then the LLC picks up the pay as you go expenses. Sadly, a lot of the corporate dollars going to NPR & PBS are gifts and donations which that says a lot about who’s funding what?
“Taxpayers Shouldn’t Fund Propaganda”
People have been sereaming that from the rooftops for decades!
““No Partisan Radio and Partisan Broadcasting Services Act” or the “NPR and PBS Act””
Nice naming work, Ronny Jackson!
This is a PR stunt. The way to eliminate authorization and appropriations for NPR and PBS — and most other federal programs — is through the reconciliation and budget bills. You know: the budget, that archaic thing that the Congress stil has to do every year and used to take seriously before letting everything get sucked into the black holes of CRs and omnibus budget resolutions. Control of the budget is the source of the power of the purse.
