Thank you
But I referred specific to broadcast, as in over the air.
This is sweet and very long overdue.

Exactly right. Nothing but cadres of leftists sucking on the public tit, wasting taxpayer dollars that could be used to rebuild the country’s crumbling infrastructure. SHUT ‘EM DOWN!
National People’s Radio and People’s Broadcasting Service should fund themselves any way they choose. We should not be paying for their anti-American propaganda.

SHUT ‘EM DOWN!
I’ll believe it when I see it. : )
Look for Big Bird to appear in front of a subcommittee.
Did they finally shut it down? That was one street that never changed.
The winning is delivered in capsule form and expands when exposed to the air.
Suck it up! We have not yet begun to win!
I can do without NPR and Pacifica, which is an abomination. But where is the great “win” in shutting down PBS? As flawed as its funding model is, it does offer a wealth of good programming and some of it is great, certainly a helluva lot more than replays of Lawrence Welk, as someone on this thread suggested. And, no, The Discover Channel and other for-profits won’t easily be able to supplant the higher quality PBS shows.
Do we really need to be Sherman marching through Georgia over PBS programming? What do we gain by telegraphing to the larger population that Conservatives are after all the cultural philistines they have always been portrayed as?
I think the Hill and Politico articles are simply meant to foment dissent and that there’s likely very little political will to get this done. In fact, I don’t think Trump will push this through. It’s more strategic for him and for us if he doesn’t.
Personally I always do a search before posting an article. Usually I search on just one word from the headline. Some cut and paste the headline, others retype the headline. So searching on the entire headline may not be useful.
It also is useful to spend some time with the search page to learn how it works. Experimentation is a great teacher.
Good one!
True, but no tax dollars are spent to fund kook2kook am.
As their owners, we should merely close the doors, fire the staff and sell the assets, not together just in its various parts.
They are only partially funded by government funds. They may be able to survive just fine without government funds, and if that is the case, good for them. Or, maybe not.
What happens when you disconnect a lib from NPR? It could get ugly.
Poldark is a problem... gotta have that. Maybe Victoria too.
(It works like a charm!) :-)

Good. As we saw with Air America so few people listened to them they wend out of business. Let NPR/PBS find their own revenue if they want to stay on the air.
Now all all of a sudden every lib will claim they listed to NPR/PBS daily.
If lbs is a good idea, it can get by without govt funds.
