Comments: Dear PBS, who will humanize the murdered children?
2 years ago we went from the $80/mth bazillion bullshit channels that we rarely watched on the DISH to the 13 bullshit free channels that we rarely watched on the Leaf antenna, and throughout it all PBS is still the only thing on any TV worth watching and that is less than about 1 hour per 24 hour period.
I have never supported PBS and it could disappear right now and it wouldn't bother me for 1 second.
The same could be said for every other TV channel out there as well.
Mostly trash viewing for insecure losers with no sense of the value of time or self worth.
I have no use for any of it.

We ditched cable. Then we ditched the HD antenna. We kept Roku in order to watch the Roku logo bounce slowly from one side to the other on the screensaver.

People still watch television.
Amazing.

It depends upon what one watches. You can burn your brain or actually find some of the more obscure channels that will edify your life. True, they're few and far between and probably consist of 2-3 hours out of 24.
But you're right about the rest: Drek!

My uncle Louie Lozko, we all called him "Letsgo Lozko", he raised bantam chickens.
The only TV he ever watched was The Lawrence Welk Show.
We all have to know our limitations.

Organizations like CNN, the New York Times, and PBS have two choices really: improve their content and be more broadly balanced ideologically... or become really hard left so they get mindless zealots supporting them and sweet, sweet, leftist government cash subsidies. PBS has chosen this path; to become even more a leftist mouthpiece than ever before.
