Fuck off mitt.

>all of those are shit except Nova

>comfy classical music on local radio
>bob ross and antiques roadshow on pbs
much better than anything on cable or private radio stations
>for free

Bruh it literally gives out the comfy time hour on all mediums for free. And the PBS News Hour is the best nightly news show out of all the major news shows.

Yeah, they shouldn't be shoving fag propaganda into a network that kids watch for education/entertainment. Good riddance.

If you fags like it so much fund it yourself.

but then my waifu will be out of a job

I probably can't convince you that PBS is worth saving, but maybe Mr Rogers can

Who is your waifu?

>Austin city limits
>Independent lens

the only good ones, the rest are basic cable tier

odd number dubs get.

PBS is pretty much pointless now that we have YouTube.

>for free


taxation is theft
taxes pay for this commie shit
so no it's not free

>nova
>nature
>independent lens
>antiques roadshow
>california gold

all quality television

> """""""free""""""""

This is probably the only good non-cable TV station out there though. I have very fond memories of watching PBS channels as a kid.

America of half a century ago isn't the America of today. Same with PBS.

Can we get rid of Sup Forums, already?

This little woman.

Who is she?

PBS gave me British tits and Ken Burns Civil War, Baseball, The West, etc don't touch my PBS.
It is also supported by the viewers. I hate telethons but they are a necessary evil and a tax write off for all the major corps.

The little gal on the right

Sup Forums please, you wouldn't even be thinking of this if your orange god-emperor hadn't said he'd cut its funding

pseudo intellectualism is destroying america

The Civil War? More like The Civil SNORE!

On no I have been sickly burned!
But I like Mary Chestnut, and Shelby Foote and soundtrack with period music and instruments.
It's so comfy ( ._.)

no YouTube has taken the place of cable public access stations

anarcho-capitalists go back to Sup Forums, although there are other methods which can supplement public spending such as government run enterprises, taxes are a necessary part of a functioning society not only in its basic needs but to foster its cultural enrichment.

I pay taxes so yes, It's what I expect as a citizen of this country

call the police you cowardly woman

This was an issue back in 2012, cuntface.

Why do liberals support censorship?

Sup Forums doesn't make any money so it only makes good fiscal sense to disband it.

>If you fags like it so much fund it yourself.

we do. It's funded by taxpayers like us. And then gets tons of donations from leftie liberals like us.

>taxpayers
I don't care if you cucks donate but leave everyone else out of it. Also KYS

>cuck
>kys
Why are you complaining about taxpayer money, it's obvious you're underage and jobless.

Easy Tiger, let's start with BRAVO, MTV, and E! before we do anything rash.

rip sweet princess

>leave everyone else out of it

I hate the cops but I still fund them through taxpayer dollars. Suck it up.

fuck outta here

Found the psuedo-intellectual

PBS is just money laundering

If people actually care to watch it, it can be done privatised

Nah, we need it for this guy

>PBS is just money laundering

there are far easier and better ways to practice money laundering.

Nah, PBS is a way to fund educational shows and niche interest shows that a corporate network would have cancelled long ago.

Ever watch Discovery or TLC lately? Notice how little genuinely educational programming there is on it?

>Can we get rid of this, already?

I'll agree that PBS doesn't need to be tax payer funded (that is, partially tax payer funded, I believe it works out to $0.50 per American per year) but if Trump does "sell off" PBS, all of their catalog of shows belongs to the American people who (partially) paid for it, thus all of PBS' catalog belongs in the public domain.

The national Endowment for the Arts on the other hand can fuck right off and I hope Trump pulls the plug on that bullshit; if nobody is willing to pay for your "art", then you need to get a real job and not expect the tax payers to pick up the check.

I remember going to church convention in the 80s. Everyone was so angry about this image.

IIRC there were (at least) three works of "art". One made with urine, one with semen, and the other (I think it was) blood.

Oh the memories.

Cmon.

Yeah but I don't want to think this.

Disgusting image

No, it's not. It's beautiful.

What's your problem with Wild Kratt's, faggot?

>No, it's not. It's beautiful.

Then you should be willing to pay for Andres Serrano's "art" with your OWN money, not tax payer dollars.

Truth.
The only thing more dangerous to society is political correctness.

I don't even want to think about what the world of the future will be like, fortunately I will most likely have been killed defending my home during the coming racewar so I won't have to witness that shitstorm.

I don't have anything against PBS, but NPR is an SJW shitfest and needs to be immediately fucking defunded.

Nice. You sir, are awarded a Troll for your troll post.

Makes plenty off ad revenue with all its traffic you absolute mong. Think before you speak

Sup Forums isn't financed by the government.

Wew.

>is practically pennies in the national budget
>military and entitlements don't get touched

Fuck off. If you already don't watch it absolutely NOTHING will change by getting rid of it, we'll still be trillions of dollars in debt growing by a wide margin every year until the other shit is taken care of. You may as well be bitching about paying to cut the White House lawn.

Cutting funding to NPR will be a net good. That station is outright cancerous these days.

Yet it's fine that we foot the bill for trump's autistic child and wife to stay in the tower instead of going to the fucking white house.

>you can cut military spending as a world power

Are you dumb?

Gotta make up for those bankrupting casinos somehow.

So tolerant...

>I don't have anything against PBS, but NPR is an SJW shitfest and needs to be immediately fucking defunded

The fuck are you talking about? All I hear on there anymore is Donald the fucking Meme trump, new science shit that came out, news from terrorism land, and statistical data on random crap. None of which has shit to do with women or SJW's you faggot.

t. autist

There are only two directions user, if it's not right, it's left.
Enjoy your leftist media.

Damn you sure told him.

These obvious Trump fags definitely have their priorities in order. It's way more important to cut funding for PBS then say, having the US and Britten cut stop giving Oild rich Arabs shitloads of money so that they can fund all the terrorists with guns.

>There are only two directions user, if it's not right, it's left.
>If you're not with me you're against me. Gray areas don't exist in my reality.
Like a true dick sucking Trump fag

Honestly NPR is the only good radio station worth listening to unless you like sports radio now that everyone has an AUX in their car and music radio is dying/dead.

They do a good job of being impartial on their talk shows and give the daily news every hour on the hour. Plus all night jazz with actual live jazz mixed in with neat little interviews with the musicians

Every other time I've turned NPR on in the past couple of years they've been talking about race/gender/sexuality/trans people. I stopped listening to them around the time of the election because I knew Trump would endlessly freak them the fuck out and found out I didn't miss it, so I had no reason to go back.

By the way, I distinctly remember that one of the ways they chose to cover the Cologne sexual assault incident was by talking to a woman who was 'saved from the crowd by a Muslim immigrant'.

I'm suspicious about how agreeable you sound user. Is this some kind of masterful bait?

>NPR
>impartial
Yeah, ten or twenty years ago, sure. You have to be a fucking shill or someone who only listens to shit like Radiolab to say that now.

>Trump considers cutting budget for something or has a strong dislike for it
>"WOW, FOR YEARS I'VE FELT INDIFFERENT BUT NOW I HATE IT TOO!!! THANK YOU ORANGE ELVIS!!"
Get a brain morans

YES! And also, eliminate ALL scientific work funded by the federal government.

Newsflash, geeks: If scientific research is needed, private enterprise will be HAPPY fund it.

Goddamn lazy-ass nerds. Let's be honest: math and theoretical physics is a fantasy realm that no one has time for.

Autists need to come to grips with the fact that their "research" is NOTHING without the voluntary support of private enterprise.

Better than giving billions of taxpayers' money to Israel

So when NPR says that Trump is filling the White House with mostly yes men so he wont have many descending or oppositional opinions, are you seriously going to tell me their making shit up?

Why the fuck do butthurt leftists constantly compare public television/radio to actually valuable things to defend my tax dollars funding it?

>Hating on the glory that is the Diane Raaammmme shooowww
Really they've had Kellyanne Conway on several times and regularly schedule interviews with republicans

she was an eyeful...

>Advocating for private enterprise without government regulation
Yea you're right that guy is totally a butthurt leftist

Are you going to defend them covering Cologne by trying to turn it into MUH NOBLE BROWN MAN in the face of mass sexual assault? I don't give a fuck about their criticism of Trump because they've already shot every ounce of credibility they ever had with me.

Trump hates and will kill anything that doesn't 100% fall in line with his way of thinking. Maybe he should start book burning next.

That's funny, I must have missed all those violent conservative protests whenever colleges have liberal speakers.

Those things aren't valuable? Culture is one of things that makes a civilization. We aren't automatons. Also you don't decide what is valuable, I'm sure you value things that others would be disinterested in

That show is gone user. She's retired. It's been replaced by some faggot nigger that whines about white people and the patriarchy all day.

Do you faggots even realize that no mater what news organisation you listen too they're going to get shit both right and wrong sometimes? These are human beings reporting the news not Vulcans.

>I'm sure you value things that others would be disinterested in
As long as Trump doesn't plan on defunding national parks, I'm good.

Look at the BBC over in Britain, where they're actively discriminating against their native population, and firing people just for being fucking white. I see absolutely fucking nothing that suggests publicly funded culture is anything but a goddamn cancerous blight.

Does everyone on Sup Forums seriously hate "Frontline"?

I hate the retarded agenda-driven mainstream corporate media (CNN, etc) as much as anyone, but should we discard actual investigative journalism entirely?

Did you respond to the wrong post?

Live in the woods and provide completely for yourself or shut you stupid memeing cunt mouth.

Yes because the truth is it's impossible to be objective, and "coincidentally" the things these investigators dig up always tend to be left leaning propaganda for some strange reason.

So yeah, Id prefer people just be honest and up front about their agendas

No one is arguing for the left here idiot. You know, it's possible to hate both right and left faggots right?

It's worth it just to destroy NPR. They are Salon tier propaganda

>npr.org/sections/codeswitch/

We're starting to see the rise of fucking Antifa in America because the left has demonized Trump and his supporters so much. If you're going to complain about Nazis, look in the fucking mirror.

Stopping leftist propaganda is the reason, not funding.
