"NPR’s gleaming new headquarters building in the shadow of the Capitol in Washington has soaring ceilings, a “wellness” center, an employee gym and a gourmet cafe staffed by a resident chef."

NPR’s new headquarters refuels funding debate

[SandRat]

Could slash?? DO Slash!!!!

[CDB]

Eliminate it and National Public Radio.

And pass a law requiring "National Public Radio"--if it re-emerges--to NEVER contain the word,"National," in its name.

$500 million could build a half mile of wall. Maybe more.

Count me in.

Good! A few good programs that should do just fine on free market media. And a ton of left wing and racist propaganda we certainly shouldn’t be forced to
Pay for.

HBO laid off a bunch of the veteran cast members from Sesame Street after they picked up the show. I don’t see HBO or the remaining cast members giving a rats a$$ about PBS and whether they survive. In fact PBS was rather pissed and was hoping that it wouldn’t do well with all the changes made by HBO. From what I’ve seen of it (the few times I put it on for my kids), I think it is significantly better than the PBS version.

Aside from the classical music it’s almost entirely crap.

[Thibodeaux]

the funds are congressional appropriations. absent a line item veto, the money must be spent as designated

[EXCH54FE]

OH Hell YES.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

Finally, the cartoon where Big Bird is some family’s Thanksgiving Turkey well come true!!!

[RoosterRedux]

Do it. Please just do it.

Here’s a typical hour of NPR:

1. Brief news “daily update” stories about bigoted conservatives and caring liberals. (At the top and bottom of the hour.)
2. Longer story about conservatives hurting liberals.
3. Friendly story about LGBTQRSTUV people somewhere in the world.
4. Serious global warming story.
5. Brief news “daily update” stories about bigoted conservatives and caring liberals. (At the top and bottom of the hour.)
6. Slightly happy story about animals, with nudges describing the need to give them rights, protections, and the ability to have someone vote on their behalf.
7. Compassionate story about migrants somewhere in the world.
8. Story about how stupid Trump is and of how stupid his supporters are for supporting him.

Very desirable, but, right now, just the ROTD
