Right on. They have a website up claiming that 170,000,000 Americans listen. I find that very hard to swallow, that would be half the country.

Now I’ll admit there are a couple of shows I enjoy, mainly Car Talk, but the rest is leftwing claptrap and I don’t want to pay for it. If they can’t sell advertising and make a successful business out of their shows, then Buh-Bye.

Iowa Public TV is coming up on their “festival” - I can only presume it will include more of what has been the occasional promo “begging” viewers to lobby congress not to cut funding for public broadcasting....
