[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it's that good, it can stand on its own, right?[/quote] NP, no it can’t. PBS stations don’t run advertising and what they air has education value and not commercial value. Many stations can survive via fund raising but in remote areas the money isn’t there. [/quote] The CEO of pbs lives in a mansion outside Roundhill. Long overdue to let them stand on their own [/quote] There are a lot of rural communities like rural Kansas where public broadcasting is the only way they have to get local news, weather, high school sports, agricultural updates and so on. Smoky Hills PBS serves 1.2 Kansans over 71 counties. They are going to be gutted, losing half of their budget. Seems Trump gives even less of a shit about rural "flyover country" than the democrats do.[/quote] Well then they should have been more responsible and reported the news such as high school sports and weather and ag reports; and avoided progressive nonsense. I’m a former NPR listener who was shocked by how biased it had become in recent years. Can you imagine if a public radio had dared report with a conservative lens? They 100% deserve this. [/quote] I love how conservatives are so f-d up, that you think reporting the facts is skewed and biased. If the truth makes you think it's biased to the left, you really need to get your head out of your RWNJ ass.[/quote] Get over your self-righteous virtue signaling. You know that “truth” is not exclusive to progressive propaganda right? WSJ, financial times, the Economist are factual media publications that do a much better job reporting “news” than NPRs so called reporting on progressive and biased human interest stories. You’re just as brainwashed as the RWNJs that you lambast, just in the other direction. You lost critical thinking ability ; it’s easier to ad hominem attack people with a different position as RWNJ than consider that your team has misstepped. Sad. [/quote]
