  Truly pathetic. They cost the American people so little, and have done incredible good for this country. This is nothing but a loss for all Americans, and will do nothing to help balance this dumpster fire of a budget.

    So then should be easy to make up for the lack of taxpayer funding then, right? If it costs so little, the people who care about it should be happy to pay for it. :)

    Be sure to up your donation. Should be easy. The cost is “so little.”

      NPR should not be funded by the tax payers. That said, very little of their funding comes from the government. This is mostly symbolic.

      I’m not gonna engage with bad faith bait. That’s idiotic and we both know it.

      They could have avoided this if they would have stayed neutral in their reporting and staffing.

      Well I guess they could have given up reporting on reality like most corporate media, but that was one of the primary advantages of not being a corporate owned propaganda machine.
