Public TV started out liberal, and over the years, it has continued to turn left. It seems they just can’t help it. Conservatives realized they would not get any help from the network. Indeed, the organization kept becoming progressively worse.
So, the conservatives have continued to cut off their supply of all that wonderful tax money. Little by little, they have been cutting off the spigot, and rightfully so. I mean, when the opponent is using the money against you, why continue to provide them with the resources?
Then, as their resources dry up, Public TV continues to veer left. Finally, one day, the supply is totally turned off. Public TV no longer receives a penny from the federal treasury.
I would like to say it was the result of stupidity but it’s just not so. Their problem is they can’t take a hint. It is totally involuntary. Their news, their so-called science based programs, and continued turns to the left is just ingrained into their genetic makeup.
Look, even now, while there are rumblings of bankruptcy, the figurative going under for the third time, they are trying to argue that ICE agents are shooting without provocation.
Now, the liberals act surprised. They act incensed, furious, enraged even. They pretend they can’t comprehend the reason behind the loss of funding. You see, after all this time, they think they are entitled.
They seem totally unaware that we, the taxpayers, have the power and the right to stop their funding.
Now, guess what. They only receive funding from the libs; and not all of them.
The other networks might take note. We don’t have to swallow the garbage they want to feed us. If they won’t take the hints, they too might start fading away.
Back when I was a kid, six decades ago, there were those who spoke highly of TV, saying it could be used for education. It didn’t quite turn out that way. I’d call it more like indoctrination.
As a teaching medium, it’s a failure. As a news medium, I am sure most of the former dictators wished they could have used it as the Democrats have. As an entertainment medium, it is a travesty. Other than that, it has worked out well.
