PBS SHOULD be defunded. PBS is no more "public" than the other networks..
The shows are all funded by corporate foundations and the stations solicit donations. Plus the system is taxpayer supported. All PBS editorial slant is far left.
The one issue that is incredibly galling is that cable and satellite providers are required to carry PBS AND must pay the retransmission fees. Nonsense.
Interesting that you don't know who funds "Nova", one of the science shows on PBS.
Got news for you..................if they're so far left, then why are the Koch brothers put on the credits as being one of their largest funders?
Actually, you may benefit from going to Wikipedia and seeing who funds the science shows like Nova on PBS. Most of them are the big corporations.
But then again...................PBS is about as public as the Florida State University when it comes to the Koch brothers...................

The usual paranoia about the Koch brothers and a useless story about FSU. So if the Nova viewers are outraged the younger Koch directs some money at Nova (a show I never mentioned), wouldn't that send a signal to a normal viewer that those viewers are happy with Nova's poitical stand (ie the gorebal warming scam) and don't want Koch OR HIS MONEY involved?
What you stalinists never seem to admit is because your side politicizes everything you touch, doesn't mean Tea Party supporters do. In fact, nobody from Nova has ever said anything about the Koch brothers influencing that show's content or political stance that I can find. Why would a show like Nova have a political stance in the first place? Because science is poiitics to the weasels on the left....something to steer into propaganda. False claims and no rebuttals and smug, sneering accusations that the right is stupid and can't be trusted.
Now that the majority of the gorebal warming baloney has been long-discredited and now laughed at, PBS maintains the political stance that facts no longer matter. NASA will no longer put it's name on the garbage they tried and failed to get away with when commercial satellites showed a doubling of the Arctic ice fields in the last year. The placement of heat sensors near metal roofs, near asphalt, in direct sunlight....all part of the scam to dummy up the data for the carbon-credit crowd. The earth was warmer during the Roman Empire you mutt.. Pitiful. Give it up.
Dontcha just love it when these libs in their desperation dredge up unrelated issues to insert them into their arguments?
