It's unfortunate but true that right-wing zealots have declared war on any form of news reporting that exposes their extremist views. They're using the self-manufactured "crisis" of the budget deficit to attack all sorts of programs, but particularly reporting exposing it. It's a sad state of affairs when our own elected officials try so blatantly to manage their news coverage. (Anything non-Fox propaganda has to go~) Seriously, how stupid do they think we are?
I say PBS, as the last outpost of non-corporate media reporting, owes a a duty to report on it. I rely on PBS for my news. No other source devotes as much time to intelligent reporting and discussion of current issues.
