PBS Faces 21% Budget Cut Amid Federal Funding Losses
TL;DR Summary
PBS plans to cut its budget by 21% due to the loss of $1.1 billion in federal funding over the next two years, leading to significant financial challenges for public media stations across the U.S., with some stations in rural areas being more heavily affected. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting will shut down by year's end, and NPR is also reducing its budget to support affected stations. The funding cuts are part of broader political debates and budget reallocations.
