As the author noted, "even though federal spending on these non-profits is negligible"...Trump cutting the "negligible" amount of Federal funding will not hurt either of these networks one bit. In fact, he may have actually helped them by further angering a lot of Trump-bashers who will be dashing for their checkbooks to donate more. I stopped listening to NPR a couple of years ago, but I still like a few shows on PBS, might even donate to them myself.

this is not correct at the macro level as explained in the video.
As Air America demonstrated: let the public economics determine the success or failer
PBS et al (including the followers) hate the concept of paying their own way
The success of conservative media is based on content and advertising support
As should PBS
A solution to their problem: be fair and balanced = represent ALL of the public; not merely liberals/progressives...and survive on ad dollars like the rest...
