pbs is not just one opinion. but you can tell yourself that lie if it helps yup sleep at night.The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) is an American public broadcaster and television program distributor. Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, PBS is an independently operated non-profit organization and is the most prominent provider of television programs to public television stations in the United States, distributing series such as NOVA, Sesame Street, PBS NewsHour, Masterpiece, Nature, American Masters, Frontline and Antiques Roadshow.Hey fish, you ever wonder why such a great news organization (your belief, not mine) doesn't win awards for journalism?
Try a Google for "FOX News journalism awards"
Read it and learn. Seeing as how you are all about getting "all sides" of an issue.
Try a little more PBS and a little less FOX. Add some BBC and shit, you got balanced news almost.
because the so-called journalism awards are given out by leftists. The real test is ratings and polls on which network is most trustworthy-----try googling those, you might learn something.
If PBS is so wonderful why must it depend on govt subsidies to survive? I do watch BBC and others. My opinions are mine alone, formed by me alone, based on years of living, working, traveling, and experiencing life.
Since the mid-2000s Roper polls commissioned by PBS have consistently placed the service as the most-trusted national institution in the United States.[2] However, PBS is not responsible for all programming carried on public television stations, a large proportion of which (including most specials aired during multi-annually pledge drives) come from third-party sources, including member stations (such as WGBH, WETA-TV, WNET, WTTW National Productions), American Public Television and independent producers. This distinction is a frequent source of viewer confusion.[3]
The service has more than 350 member television stations, many owned by educational institutions or non-profit groups affiliated with a local public school district, collegiate educational institution or by state government-owned or -related entities.[4] It also operates National Datacast (NDI), a subsidiary which offers datacasting services via member stations, and provides additional revenue for PBS and its member stations.

I know what PBS is---------------a government funded propaganda network.
They do put out some good products, no one has denied that. But without govt funding, PBS could not survive. Why should the govt fund one opinion and not all opinions?
as to the whining about government funding it's a red herring.
Does PBS not favor the left? Does it not get govt funding?
