The new US Congress in it's infinite wisdom is now proposing a bill that would cut off all federal funding for public broadcasting, both radio and television. The cost annually would save taxpayers a whopping $1.35 per citizen. The cut would likely devastate public broadcasting to operate as they have, since some politicians consider it a "luxery" that somehow we can no longer afford. This is entirely politically motivated, and attacks one of the best information sources we have. Think of all the programs they have developed, from Ken Burn's series, to Nova, to Frontline, to kid's programming, and on and on. The money this will save is squat. The cost of losing the service is far greater.
