I think it means this: Drudge is reporting that the New York Times is reporting that the Chairman of one of the numerous shell organizations that were set up to allow Public Broadcasting to make the (absolutely laughable unless you are a liberal with an IQ of less than 76) claim that they are independant... that this chairman has reached the conclusion that PBS is biased. This is a horror on the order of, oh, say, an undergraduate at Penn shouting out his dorm window at a bunch of rallying minority students the words water buffalo which will rate continuous front-page coverage and hand-wringing for the next four months. Or until the Empire State Building is knocked down by terrorists, which will be George Bush's fault.

Double-check this but I think I've read in the past couple of days that Congressional Republicans have made some new appointments at the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, including maybe the chairman. When I read the story it occurred to me the Pubbies have likely decided to change the organization from within rather than experience the firestorm they run into when they try to cut budgets or eliminate PBS.
