... at that time public broadcasting depended more on government funding than it does now. The PBS and NPR networks can survive just fine without government funding. It's their member stations I worry about. The big ones will survive, though they will have to find cutbacks somewhere. Or more on air pledge drives. It's the smaller stations and the more rural stations I'm concerned about. Best case scenario they find the money and stay on air. Worst case they close down and sell their licence to a religious broadcaster (just what we need, another K-Love /s) or middling case they get taken over by a nearby station and operations get combined.
