Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr has put the Public Broadcasting System and National Public Radio on notice that he has ordered an investigation into those outlets for violating federal law by airing paid advertisements. //

As Carr says in his letter, it is one thing to credit underwriters, but you cross the line into advertisement when they "promote the contributor's products, services, or businesses, and they may not contain comparative or qualitative descriptions, price information, calls to action, or inducements to buy, sell, rent, or lease." //

Let them run all the advertising they want...and cut off ALL government funding. I remember when this all started as “educational” TV. Ha! Now it’s propaganda TV and radio.
