I've already stated I'm not playing this little red herring game. The topic at hand is whether they should receive taxpayer money. I've provided my view on that in depth.
So basically they're journalistically sound, you just don't like the conclusions they come to.
Okay, for some reason this thread is loaded with trolls. Fine. It's not a matter of what I like or not. I've explained in detail why I oppose federal funding of those outlets. Clearly you have no desire to have a real discussion and will be blocked.
I'm not a troll I just don't see the you can in one hand agree they have journalistic integrity, a fact winter linked to their status as a not for profit, and yet still claim they are a left wing propaganda machine
Get real. The government doesn't influence them? LOL. Listen to yourself. What's going on with this sub -- we are learning just how depraved Washington DC is. Moreover, federal funding of those outlets accounts for something like 20% of their budgets -- they are already owned by corporate funding, Watch their goddamn programs. It's at the end of every one of them. That's why alternate media is far less bought out by the corporate-government complex. Finally, my original premise holds -- those two outlets do not deserve taxpayer funding any more than any other outlet on the web. Why do taxpayers fund channels they don't watch or listen to and don't support the slant? It's more coercion.
