Do sponsors who also advertise on Rush Limbaugh get a pass?
Good luck boycotting Cargill.
Hmm ... Fox Broadcasting Company is on the list, too. My brain hurts.
No kidding. You would starve to death...
We are all sponsors.
The NPR limousine liberals are saying they don’t need the federal dollars they are receiving. They might want to re-think that crap. LOL! I’ve got a feeling that a lot of these sponsors are going to be telling them “Adios” after their Juan Williams fiasco.
Fox contributed between $50,000 - $99,000 in 2008.
Somehow, I don’t think it will respond positively when it is next asked to renew.
Damn!
And Soreass had to give them a $MIL to boot?
Wonder how many will drop this Socialist propaganda machine now.
My bank and my ins. co. not on there, thank God!
***************************
Correct. Time to defund NPR.
State Farm Mutual Insurance Company is on the list.
I spend about $350 a month with them for homeowners and auto insurance. I guess I’ll be looking for a new insurer.
Over 1/3 of NPRs money comes from fees paid for by corporation for public broadcasting!
My thinking on Fox’s contribution is that it’s about keeping their foot in the door in case of fairness doctrine compliance boards who will be staffed by just these types of multi-cultural, PC, academics. It’s substantiating a legal argument. But that would be logical. In this world, who the heck knows...
Lumber Liquidators??? ....WTF? How is NPR helping them?
Most libs don’t have the skills to change a light bulb.
Interestingly I have PBS on the TV at the moment.
It was just interrupted for a tornado warning.
When the warning went of the volume decreased about 75%
When it was over the volume returned to normal levels.
Our tax dollars at work /s
CPB the funding shell that gives Tax money to the stations, who then it to NPR...Gets 40% of it’s revenue from TAX Dollars. Over a Billion dollars in taxes. Some goes to TV and about 25% goes to the “radio system”.
You think Soros’ $1 MM is a big deal?
Who could forget this one?
Philanthropist Joan Kroc Leaves NPR $200 Million Gift
11/2003

For those who don’t know, Joan Kroc was the the widow of Ray Kroc, the mixmaster salesman who bought and expanded McDonalds into its present empire.
Someone should run a “politically correct” Survivor. In this week’s episode, radical Muslims beat out a black Hispanic male. Next week, radical Muslim takes on a disabled lesbian.
How many are front groups for George Soros?
