Give Them Money!...Just Because....
I've seen some pretty good documentaries, entertainment, and educational media. Some of them were done by PBS (after they improved their product to "compete" with numerous private venues).
So, why is it exactly that, of all the media and creative organizations out there, PBS requires subsidies from the state (taxpayers)?
Tears shed for Big Bird are no more than another garden variety drama session in support of the useless state in it's quest to run its tentacles into any social crevasse it can find.
Sesame Street and its like are multi-billion dollar operations of mugs, T-shirts, and calendars. They'll get by fine without crony dollars from D.C.
The war on Big Bird....pleeease.
