NPR/PBS is 90%, they can't rate 100 because some jerks in DC gutted their funding forcing them to take corporate cash
Their "funding" came from my taxes without my knowledge or agreement. Our taxes should be utilized for the minimum necessary to actually run the country, not as a charity bucket to use as different government committee teams see fit based on lobbyist loyalties (or any other charities for that matter). Think they're any less biased when they get government funding from those people? If I wanted them to have my money, I would send them money. If you're so concerned, they take direct donations. Put your money where your mouth is.

You make it sound as if this is running rampant. Proof? I doubt the number of times this has happened is a drop in the overall bucket. It's punishing the many because of an insignificant few (trying to fix a problem that doesn't exist). Feel-good solutions for non-problems. And another waste of tax money.
