I’ve been trying to talk sense into my elderly mom, who often donates to her local PBS affiliate, because they “provides so much educational programs.” And she is a conservative.
Years ago, they did.
Now it’s recycled old British TV shows (after the Brits have moved on), BBC’s slant on the News, an occasional NOVA science program, and non-stop kiddie shows all day (most of them old and recycled too)
Once in a while “Live at the Met”, which I like as an Opera Fan, but that is about the size of it.
Anytime they have a Concert or special program that I might enjoy, they interrupt so many times for begging that I might as well watch broadcast TV.
I can never find a good documentary anymore on ANY of the Cable Channels. History Channel is all American Pickers or Aliens.
I liked the History channel better when you could watch a good Civil War or WW2 Documentary in Glorious Black and White! LOL! ((((At Least they don’t BEG)))
