Boo freaking hoo.
If they go dark on Jan 1, the memory of their existence will be gone by Jan 2.
Now, if we could just make this happen nationwide.

I’m still waiting for someone to explain to me why we need “public broadcasting” at all.
There are only — what? — about a thousand broadcast channels anymore.

I hope this provides a clue to the Republican house seeking ways to cut gubbermint waste. Just zero out the bullshit.

Public broadcasting owns facilities, frequency leases and people behind cameras and production rooms which can actually run the place. They can be sold to the highest bidder.
Back when I was a schoolboy in the 1960's, public broadcasting played an important role distributing educational programming which wasn't available on the three networks.
Now we have History Channel, Discovery, Learning Channel, Animal Planet and a host of others which can distribute just about any type of educational theme desired.

Nice. Layoffs are not always bad news. People who are wrongfully employed in govt means there are those who ought to be rightfully employed in the private sector but not.

Let PBS stations go dark or stand on their own.

State officials issued layoff notices to 130 workers at the New Jersey Network today, marking the latest step in the dismantling of the public television and radio network. There, was that so hard? It should take no more than 5 minutes at the federal level to cut coersive public proadcasting and then move onto the actual hard stuff.

Dang...it should have read:
