PBS and NPR should have been defunded from federal taxpayer money decades ago - Reagan had them funded at “zero” but the usual bootlickers like John Warner wanted to cozy up to the Georgetown types. When Trump was President, the Rs held both chambers of Congress but Ryan and McConnell did NOTHING to reduce the payments to these leftist mouthpieces. The arguments for PBS/NPR ended 40 years ago - that there needed to be a high end alternative to the networks - when cable tv and about 1000 specialized channels emerged. Now it is just welfare for otherwise unemployable leftists and WE pay their salaries to throw garbage in our faces.

I agree completely.

Meanwhile, FNC is why we cut the cord.

All the broadcasts of NPR and PBS except in the far west are made from state controlled facilities.

To get rid of these atrocities, Governors must act
