“An Ode to those PBS leeches!”
______________________________________

I am somewhat ashamed to admit that I was a real PBS fan
25 years ago.
My wife at the time donated her art work for the local fund drives.
An old friend of mine was the chief engineer for the local affiliate.

I think at that time they were not so open about their
Marxist ideology.
Gosh, were the “Car Guys” really Marx and Lenin in drag?

Me too. I used to like Bob Edwards' chats with Red Barber and the interviews with authors I hadn't heard of before. That was a long time ago....

I was also a PBS fan many years ago. It was the only source for commercial free content. My favorites at the time were Nova and At the Movies. I had no idea that the shows were anything but just plain old interesting science and reviews....boy, was I ever wrong!

We’ll never know will we? How about Mr. Rogers? I always wondered if Mr McFeely had commie leanings :P
