PROGRESSIVE MEDIA - NPR AND PBS ARE TO LOSE GOVERNMENT FUNDING. These two organizations are not independent as they should be, but they are part of the progressive movement, which means they sell lies, misinformation, and relentlessly attack conservatives. So, why should our government waste money on biased news agencies? Especially, since Mainstream Media are progressives that can't see beyond their nose. This is a good move by Trump for our country—all IMO.

"NPR and PBS both have diverse revenue streams, including major foundation grants, advertising and voluntary viewer and listener donations, meaning that neither is likely to cease operations if they lose federal support.
The CPB is set to receive $535 million in congressionally appropriated funds annually to distribute to public broadcasters in 2025 and 2026.
PBS and its member stations receive about 15% of their revenues from the CPB, while NPR stations get 10% of their funds from the corporation, according to NPR.
NPR itself only receives 1% directly from CPB."
