Last time I looked, Children’s Television Workshop collected $47 million in annual licensing royalties. They do not need to be subsidized.
Nor does Amtrak, farmers, Planned Parenthood, green energy and on an on...
Speaking of a robbery.... stop taking my money from me against my will and under threat of force to fund a television station!!!!
Where is that petition?
As Biden says, “The president has a big stick, and you’ll get a Big Bird.”
Fry Big Bird. His bones can mark the path back to a balanced budget and Constitutional government.
If this dork wants his commie TV, why doesn’t he pay for it? Its not like they don’t take donations.
When her kids are up to their tail feathers in debt financed by China so that they could watch some dumb bird on TeeVee, maybe she will think differently.
When :spit: Barney was on PBS, they were paying Lyons to make the episodes, and not getting a cut of the merchandising bucks.
The President of PBS makes over 600 grand a year, he can pay for Big Bird’s birdseed. Our federal dollars should NOT be spent giving money to a far left network like PBS.
I stand with Romney—on Big Bird's sexually ambiguous neck.
Another liberal dad admits that he ain’t Big Bird.
Romney gave specifics for eliminating govt waste...said he would look for any unnecessary govt spending, starting with things like PBS.
No matter how small a percentage of overall spending it is, all the small things add up to a lot of waste.
And after all these years, PBS and others can either make it or break it, including Big Bird.
If it’s that important, then all the progressives should suck it up and write multi-million dollar checks to PBS. Warren, where’s your check? Barbara Streisand, where’s your check. Come on rich progressives, are you trying to abort Big Bird?
If PBS programming is so marvelous it would survive in the free market.
