Why Is Npr And Pbs Breaking Laws By Airing Commercials Designed To Have Viewers Lobby Congress?
Posted on March 9, 2011.
lol, NPR and PBS are not partisan. my a$$
For you intellectuals that say they are not breaking the law. It is like saying that the KKK receiving a small percent of Government funding is not breaking the law.
The fact that they receive one dime of TAX PAYER money they are to be neutral. They are not suppose to be political, GET IT!
No one has broken any laws. No one has been charged. And yet…you say “they are breaking laws.”
Why are you saying they are breaking laws when the only ones saying they are doing so are conservatives who want to cut their funding?
Start an investigation if you like…but no one is guilty in the US until they are found to be so with proper due course. No matter what conservatives say.
They aren’t
You need to understand the difference between advertising and lobbying. Asking viewers to express their beliefs is not the same as contacting elected officials for private discussions
I don’t think anyone appreciates the conservative War on Teachers, Education and Science.
Because both are undercover arms of the democrat party, it is shameful that our tax dollars support these liberal propaganda machines
It’s not against the law if it comes out of their budget. if the funding comes from an outside source it is illegal and violates their non-profit status. .,.
NPR and PBS air NO commercials, so the point is moot.
They are entitled to air opinion to their hearts content.
No they is not.
Don’t believe everything you read in the Moonie Times. It’s funny how Republicans love free speech…as long as you agree with them.
They probably learned from the church about how to do that.
The left knows nothing of these laws.
PBS is lobbying that is 100% legal!
they themselves are not lobbying. no law broken.
Because, so far, they can.
WHY DID THE KOCH BROS SEND ILLEGAL
CAMPAGIN MONEY TO GOV WALKER and the tea party
