1 year agoPublic service journalism is really good in the US and yes, it deserves public funding. It needs to be funded publicly. As a matter of fact, NPR and PBS are, in my opinion, the best news sources in the world. I’ve lived with public journalism in other countries. It’s publicly funded, but its reporting often gets filtered by whatever party is in power. It’s a shame more people don’t realize what a national treasure the US has and does not appreciate it because, you know, taxes.
Things are so in the shits even Bloomberg reports on these things.
