Insiders make millions with their programs that air like Bill Moyer. Taxpayers pay for everything while Bill preaches about evil capitalism.
PBS does have interesting shows like the one about batteries I saw the other week BUT they toss in global warming/climate change while talking about batteries. I watch NOVA, same thing in their shows. If their programs are any good they are several tv channels that would buy them just like it happens in hollywood.
I saw the NOVA show about building a better battery. The “Global Warming: talk made me so angry I ended up turning the channel! Which is sad, because NOVA used to be a good, reliable program.
