Corporation for Public Broadcasting Announces It's Shutting Down Next Month, NPR and PBS Remain

Tim Graham : Aug 4, 2025  MRCTV.org

"...For years, Americans were forced to foot the bill for NPR and PBS, two media arms that insulted the very taxpayers funding them. When you spend years sneering at America, promoting drag queen story hours, and pushing climate hysteria while claiming neutrality, eventually, the jig is up." -MRC President David Bozell

[MRCTV.org] Deadline.com is reporting the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down its operations after the loss of federal funding. "The CPB informed employees on Friday that the majority of staff positions will end on Sept. 30, with a small transition team in place through January, 2026." (Screengrab image: via CPB.org)

If this happens, this is not a shutdown of PBS or NPR stations, but a shutdown of the corporation that sends out the taxpayer money to PBS and NPR stations. After all of their protests that their taxpayer funding wasn't a large portion of their budgets, they are now acting like the defunding is catastrophic to their operations.

On X, MRC President David Bozell approved of the breaking news:

Finally. After decades of taxpayer-funded propaganda masquerading as "public broadcasting," the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down.

For years, Americans were forced to foot the bill for NPR and PBS, two media arms that insulted the very taxpayers funding them.

When you spend years sneering at America, promoting drag queen story hours, and pushing climate hysteria while claiming neutrality, eventually, the jig is up.

The "public media" lobby has been attempting to get the defunding reversed, but this week, Senate Republicans advanced a funding bill that also included no money for CPB in the years to come.

Republicans have long felt that when it comes to reducing the size of the federal government, an obvious place to start is government-funded radio and TV, an outdated concept in an age with so many options in media. Because of this, CPB has always relied on Democrats to keep the taxpayer spigot open, and the pro-Democrat bias has sweetened this natural affinity with those who would maximize the federal establishment.

Could CPB have maintained funding if they had attempted to live up to the language in the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 that demanded "objectivity and balance in all programming of a controversial nature?" We can tell you from our daily review of news: PBS and NPR made no serious attempt in 2025 to change their historical pattern in favoring the Left.
