What do you think about the closing and end of CPB and thereby PBS?

in 1967 President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Public Broadcasting Act That law guaranteed a permanent stream of government funding for educational radio and television.

To buffer PBS from the influence of political parties and commercial sponsors, the law called for the creation of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

PBS and NPR are no longer non partisan as originally mandated by the act that created them, so buh bye.

@NativePortlander1970 I agree that there needs to be a better balance - Firing line is still pretty good - originally hosted by conservative stalwart William Buckley - there should be some disclaimer and attention to equal time when it comes to politics on ALL media outlets.

That said, using your limitless political power to disembowel your opposition is not a good look for the POTUS....
