Don't taxpayers fund Armed Forces Radio as well as PBS? |

Regarding public funding of "liberal" PBS
Don't taxpayers fund Armed Forces Radio?
Rush Limbaugh spews his hateful right-wing bile on that network straight into our barracks as well as into the homes of Iraqis.
Perhaps this information should be part of the PBS discussion going on today in Congress and on cable news.

That's a fair point - although I understand that they broadcast PBS on Armed Forces Radio as well. Bryant Check it out --> http://politicalcomment.blogspot.com

I do wish this were part of the discussion, since PBS's enemies are all in a dither about taxpayer funding of point-of-view broadcasts.
