Roughly 70% of the corporation’s money went directly to 330 PBS and 246 NPR stations across the country. The cuts are expected to weigh most heavily on smaller public media outlets away from big cities, and it’s likely some won’t survive. NPR’s president estimated as many as 80 NPR stations may close in the next year.

You and I look at this as a loss, but the administration sees it as a win. Less NPR and less PBS means people - especially rurals will have fewer media choices, particularly those which give the alternate reality outlets (Fox, radio talk shows, etc) any kind of balance.

So don’t think they care. This is a MAGA victory, not a “public loss.” Obviously it’s the opposite of that, but this is the world we’re in now.
