CW: U.S. Politics, Trump's post, Iran war
PBS, like most other mainstream media news outlets, using "expletive-laden" yet not including the actual text of Trump's tirade is part and parcel of U.S. media presenting him in the most favorable light possible.
I want to support PBS ( #FundPBS ), but I also want them to be better at serving facts to the public.
Here's what that fucker actually posted:

Citing #FirstAmendment, federal judge blocks Trump order to end funding for #NPR and #PBS
By MICHAEL KUNZELMAN

Comments 241WASHINGTON (AP) — "Citing the First Amendment, a federal judge on Tuesday agreed to permanently block the Trump administration from implementing a presidential directive to end federal funding for National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service, two media entities that the White House has said are counterproductive to American priorities.
"The operational impact of U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss’ decision was not immediately clear — both because it will likely be appealed and because too much damage to the public-broadcasting system has already been done, both by the president and Congress.
"Moss ruled that President Donald Trump’s executive order to cease funding for NPR and PBS is unlawful and unenforceable. The judge said the First Amendment right to free speech 'does not tolerate viewpoint discrimination and retaliation of this type.' "

Do you enjoy nature, science, history? You can enjoy the latest programs, as well as years' worth of archives, at PBS. And if you make a monthly donation--as little as $5, as much as you can afford--you can preserve this national treasure resource for future generations.

Did you know that you can help shore up the funding gap for PBS (and NPR), as well as getting access to fantastic content, for just $5 a month?
Such as the new series, CIVICS MADE EASY--where they explain things like, oh, HOW VOTING WORKS in the U.S.

Hey, art animals! Who else used to draw along with Commander Mark of The Secret City?

I watch a lot of shows via our local OPB (Oregon Public Broadcasting) station. I also listen to the public radio (I know, I'm old). I'd like it to stick around!

-Passport shows have never been streamed 'free', they've always been behind the minimum donation paywall.
-The vast majority of PBS shows *are* free, the passport shows are an incentive and reward to the people who can afford a small monthly donation, so that the free stuff can be made.

#PSA: This is why I have started posting about PBS. Yeah, it would be better if our taxes were used to fund public goods rather than gilded toilets for the toxic bag of shit in the White House, but until we can rebuild democracy, we can do this for ourselves and our neighbors.

in an article about maga wanting to defund PBS because the truth hurts them I found an interesting statistic "According to a 2024 poll by YouGov, PBS was Americans’ third-most trusted news source after The Weather Channel and the BBC."
It's very telling that the most trusted news source in the states is the British Broadcasting Company, even people from here don't trust US news organizations to be honest.
