A few thought’s on #GoTrump cutting public funding to #PBS and #NPR, although congress approved said funding through 2027. A disclaimer, I contribute to PBS, 10 dollars a month because there is no other place to find certain programming like Antiques Roadshow, Finding Your Roots, etc.
An organization publicly funded ought to accurately report news and events. #TheNewshour hasn’t done this since the unfortunate passing of Gwen Ifill on November 14, 2016. I stopped watching soon after. The alarming turn to woke leftism was swift.
Since that time, PBS has consistently reported biased news. OPB is especially bad, trying to find programming not specifically gender, or race based is difficult. The #MeToo movement ruined Finding Your Roots.
Any organization or corporation publicly funded should be impartial and offer opposing viewpoints, as The Newshour once did. Remember Shields and Brooks ? #Trump is Not Censoring any news organisations. If the news presented is credible, it ought not need public funding to survive.
