A conservative president or Congress that does not defund public broadcasting does not understand what the moment requires — or, in the parlance of the day, they don’t know what time it is. Across the board, government must stop funding services set up with taxpayer money ostensibly to serve all Americans but which cater only to one side.
NPR is a prime example of this asymmetry. And because of its visibility, it’s a good candidate for the first symbolic act of resolve by new leadership.
