I wish KPBS was funded by listeners: the Feds put $495MM into PBS for '06:  http://www.boston.com/news/nation/washington/articles/2006/06/08/gop_takes_aim_at_pbs_funding/

PBS is the antithesis of critical, independent thinking.  To my ears, it sure sounds like the Kommie Pinko Broadcasting System.

I look forward to the big recession (probably depression) so that federal and state governments are forced back to focusing on the few important things, and not spending my money on junk like PBS.
