YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump said he is in favor of defunding National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service, casting the outlets as unfavorable to him and a drain on taxpayer money.

“I would love to do that,” Trump said Tuesday at the White House, suggesting that there was no longer a need for the public broadcasters.

PBS and NPR receive a small portion of their funding from federal sources, with the radio broadcaster pulling in 1% directly from US government sources. PBS’s budget includes 16% of its funding from the federal government. The networks also receive money from sponsors and individual donors.
