I am posting this only to illustrate how progressives-who-refuse-to-grow-up write on subjects such as PBS. I'd like to contrast this extremely bland report with one written over three years ago, and not from some rabble rousing fount of radical rhetoric, but from the Baltimore Chronicle.
The latter does a much better job of understanding how a quasi-public broadcast service has devolved into serving the right-wing agenda of the Empire. Like all other important institutions, the ruling class knows how to control PBS in its interest which it does through appointments to their Board of Directors by the President and through money appropriated by Congress.
