Summary
The Republican-led push to defund public broadcasters like NPR and PBS has gained new momentum with Sen. John Kennedy’s proposed “No Propaganda Act,” echoing longstanding conservative critiques of media bias and fiscal waste.
The effort is bolstered by changing media consumption habits, a weakened public radio audience, and competition from digital platforms like Spotify and The New York Times.
NPR faces challenges in adapting to a digital future, while internal divisions and declining funding threaten its sustainability.
Advocates warn this campaign may succeed where past efforts have failed.
Is the US government often dropping bombs on apartments? I would hope the working class would investigate that if it happened. If all out war has been declared - I will support the working class people who come into contact with my life. Also, helicopters have to refuel somewhere.

Not nearly frequent, but it has happened. The working class can investigate all they want, but when they bring their findings to those with the power or ability to do anything, they’ll be met with “and?”
Oh you’re assuming we’re waiting for courts at that point. When the government is bombing apartments the courts won’t matter much at that point.
Sorry, it probably isn’t common knowledge, I was referring specifically to Waco (M1A1 Abrams tank and several Bradley armored vehicles against civilians inside the continental US, in a 51-day siege that resulted in the deaths of 82 civilians, 28 of whom were children) and the MOVE bombings (dropping bombs on apartment complexes, after which Philadelphia Police Department allowed the resulting fire to burn out of control, destroying 61 previously evacuated neighboring homes over two city blocks and leaving 250 people homeless. Six adults and five children were killed in the attack, with one adult and one child surviving).
Nothing of significance, of course, happened to the people who did these things.
