They just cannot help themselves on the Left, it appears. The arguments get stronger by the day for the U.S. to unburden itself from subsidizing public broadcasters like National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS).

Their apologists are not giving up the ghost just yet, as a former CEO of NPR exemplified with a recent sit-down on CNN’s “News Central” show. Vivian Schiller told the host that she does not believe the White House “[has] the authority to defund CPB, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.”
