Taxpayer-funded National Public Radio (NPR) will wipe out ten percent of its current staff and freeze all hiring, including for current vacancies.
The left-wing welfare queens claim ad revenue did not meet expectations. But, with an annual operating budget of $300 million, this $30 million shortfall gave the serial liars no other choice. More
Just raze the place.
Funny how a non-commercial network could claim”ad revenue” did not make expectations.
In the early 80’s I lived on the Central California Coast and got both the Los Angeles and San Francisco PBS stations on cable. That allowed me to observe several beg weeks on both stations. I calculated that with the time they spent on beg-a-thongs, they had just as much “commercial” time as commercial stations — and that was before the regulations were relaxed that allowed actual commercials.
I also noticed that most of the shows that a large number of people would be interested in watching were shown in only in beg weeks.
I don’t like the fact that the UK has licensing fees if you have a TV, but at least the BBC does not have commercials. Canada, on the other hand, subsidizes the CBC AND the CBC also has commercials. And that does not include Fidel’s subsidizing approved propaganda outlets such as the CBC.
Good, maybe now All Things Considered will now become No Things Considered. I haven’t listened to NPR snooze radio since the mid 80’s.
Democrat propaganda programming isn’t all that popular. Hmmm. They’re failing at brainwashing.
They fail at everything. They are democrats. What did you expect?
That was a satisfying article, but unfortunately just like their federal government overlords, running at an annual deficit is par for the course. More tax-payer funding will be forthcoming.
Best news all day.
NPR should just move shop to Ukraine; then they could have billions of our tax dollars instead of just millions.
But what will become of the tote bags?
Tote bags full of rubber dicks?
The royalties that PBS gets from Sesame Street merchandising is enough to run the whole operation.
@MJA – “…But what will become of the tote bags?…”
You mean their top propagandist Nina TotenBag?
The MSM made NPR obsolete.
TDS doesn’t pay with no T
An oldie but goodie from Sesame Street sung by Bert and Ernie, Rubber dicks you’re the one that makes bath time lots of fun.
National Propaganda Reruns.
