Perfect opportunity for a crowdfunding effort to get us through a year until the midterms. If the Dems can’t take back the house in the midterms then it’s game over but for now this is the perfect opportunity for private funding to keep PBS and NPR afloat for the short term.

It has been extremely evident over the past several years that the news coverage and other content from NPR is far from politically neutral. If they can't maintain neutrality, they should not get public funding. I don't see how this is controversial. If they were producing a bunch of right-wing or right-coded content, the author of this article would be rejoicing about it. If their content is valuable to their audience, it should be able to stand on its own. The only thing I am a little bit sad about here is PBS and some of their educational content for kids. Some of that stuff was top-notch. Hopefully this can find some way to also stand on its own.
