Eliminate tax payer funds supporting PBS and NPR until and unless they become politically neutral.
If our government continues to fund PBS/NPR, the tax payers should have a voice in they kinds of programming they air.

With the advent of Podcasting and Social Media platforms people have free will choice of and free access to all current NPR and PBS programing as liberals put this out by the ton anyway. No need for OUR government to support this propaganda any further. Put an end to them.

If BPS and NPR cannot be eliminated, it should be mandated to ensure equal representation in terms of airtime and staffing across conservative, liberal, and independent perspectives. Both pro and opposing viewpoints on issues should receive equal airtime to promote balanced coverage.
I AGREE - The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) receives a yearly congressional appropriation of about $575 Million. Funding for public television comes from the government (at all levels) and the private sector in roughly equal amounts. Approximately 75% of the CPB’s funding goes to public television, while 25% goes to public radio. About 70% of funding for local NPR stations comes from government sources.
Astounding. How can over a half billion dollars a year from the US government go to supporting left-wing media organizations?
