MACDONALD: Can NPR and PBS Survive in the Free Market?

Steve MacDonald

The Corporation for Public Broadcasting 9CPB) has been defunded for several weeks now, and the world didn’t end. NPR and PBS continue with their programming, but for how long? CPB, which laundered tax dollars to the achaic and no longer necessary offspring, is decruting and at some point its offices, like those of USAID, will … Read more

MacDonald: If People Still Want NPR…

Steve MacDonald

Every objection from Democrats to the current realignment of responsibility underway in Washington, DC is based on a severely flawed premise. What people need cannot exist if the government doesn’t take the people’s money to fund it and control it. It’s not that you don’t know what you want; it’s that you may not spend … Read more

DiLorenzo: The American Pravda Sues the Trump Administration

Thomas J. DiLorenzo

In a recent executive order President Trump called for an end to taxpayer funding of NPR and “public” television (PBS), created by Congress in 1967 to laughingly create an “independent” news source.  Yes, they have always been independent of the free market and of the hapless American taxpayers, but certainly not independent of the deep … Read more

NPR Pretends It Is Beyond Reach

Steve MacDonald

The headline that coerced me into clicking on a link to an article at New Hampshire Public Radio (NHPR) is ‘The Independence of Public Radio Cannot Be Compromised.” My first thought was, what’s independent about NPR and NHPR? “CPB is not a federal executive agency subject to the President’s authority. Congress directly authorized and funded … Read more

Trump EO Defunds NPR and PBS

Steve MacDonald

Ending Taxpayer Subsidization of Biased Media Donald Trump has issued an executive order declaring that the government isn’t supposed to be subsidizing any media, especially the blatantly partisan garbage (my words) that comes from NPR and PBS. Unlike in 1967, when the CPB was established, today the media landscape is filled with abundant, diverse, and … Read more

So Deliciously Cruel, It Makes You Laugh

Skip

I think she means well, but if she ever had a clever thought, it died alone and afraid. That is the response of Senator John Kennedy (R-LA), who has the most droll, dead-pan delivery of scorching humor when addressing the idiots arrayed before him (his “colleagues, some of those offering “testimony” and current events). But … Read more

Taxpayer Subsidized Left Wing Media

Norm Silber

Fortunately for the American taxpayers, some members of the incoming Congress have recently indicated a desire to conduct a long-overdue critical examination of the taxpayer subsidies for National Public Radio (“NPR”). A modicum of research will likely conclude that a significant portion of NPR’s financial support comes from the taxpayers via the Corporation for Public … Read more

Does Sotomayor Not Trust The Science?

Op-Ed

Throughout the pandemic, our ruling class has demanded that the vast majority take unprecedented steps to protect the minute minority. Kids have been asked to sacrifice their academic growth and emotional wellbeing so that teachers’ unions could collect dues while their members cowered behind screens.

Mandates: Is Governor Chris Sununu Gonna Apologize for Being Wrong Again?

Skip

“Gov. Sununu: No, well, look, we are not going to mandate vaccines, nobody wants to mandate vaccines, even Washington doesn’t want to mandate vaccines. That’s absolutely the wrong approach.” Here’s the full deal from the interview that was done JUST YESTERDAY (9/9/21): Gov. Sununu: No, well, look, we are not going to mandate vaccines, nobody wants to … Read more
