I say we pull the grants because they don't qualify for them. How's that.
The government should not be funding television, radio, or the 'arts.' Those who enjoy them should pay for them or encourage sponsors to do so.
The government funds broadcasting because the People, through their elected representatives, choose to fund broadcasting.
To say that the government should not fund broadcasting is to say that the People should not have the right to decide whether or not the government funds broadcasting.
If Congress decides not to continue funding, then that means the People, through their elected representatives, chose to not fund broadcasting. Can't have it both ways.
