Part 6/11:
Financial scrutiny reveals that major public broadcasting outlets receive substantial taxpayer support, comprising a significant portion of their total budgets. For instance, in 2025, NPR is expected to receive almost $100 million from taxpayer funds, while PBS received approximately $130 million in the previous year. The argument is made that instead of subsidizing these media outlets, the government should not prioritize certain news organizations over others. Instead, it should allow the free market to determine winners and losers in the media sphere.
