This isn't about presidential politics. This is about defunding the left and their propaganda machine. Well done Gov Walker.
Plus, media in general is changing.
Now more than ever, it makes no sense to keep broadcasters afloat whose product can not support itself through commercial demand.
With the rise of the new media — anyone who wants that kind of programming can find it from on-line and streaming sources.
Without the big revenues, our socialist overlords lose political influence. Walker is the only candidate who has put that much effort into cutting spending. Every other candidate will eventually imply promises to increase funding to the socialists (”improve education,” “states rights” to more pork, “tough on crime,” etc.).
“This isn’t about presidential politics. This is about defunding the left and their propaganda machine. Well done Gov Walker.”
Exactly! It is a start!
There needs to be no taxpayer funding of State agitprop which, as Ray Bradbury noted is only used to project the “proper perceptions” in the ignorant masses. It is used to control emotions and distribute misinformation (pure Marxist techniques to collapse cultures and create mistrust and divide). It creates an addiction, to keep one from true education (original source reading/Great Books, Real Life experiences/interactions).

You betcha! :) A company I worked for yanked all PBS advertising years ago when they went ‘fabulous’ 24/7. We weren’t the only ones, mind you!
It took about 10 years, but our local PBS has FINALLY gotten the message. I guess it takes that long to run out of, ‘Other Peoples Money.’ ;)
