@cbsmornings: On Thursday, President Trump signed an executive order aiming to slash public subsidies to PBS and NPR, as he alleged "bias" in the broadcasters' reporting. The broadcasters get roughly half a billion dollars in public money through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and have been preparing for the possibility of stiff cuts since Trump's election.
Why isn’t it mentioned that Trump can’t just end this funding himself? Congress already had approved funding to 2027 for NPR and PBS.

He’s taking funding from everywhere. Trying to get all the money to his own interests (his pockets).

Well if they would just report the truth like they are suppose to & not be biased Trump wouldn’t have to do that. Great to see FAFO action take place.

Why should our taxes fund any type of media outlet? I don't care about sesame street or Bob Ross painting. I'm talking about ANT media outlet.Our taxes should never go towards.
