cant cantor maybe

Post #94,623 by boxley 4/5/03 11:49:23 PM Reply	cant cantor maybe so one place governmentally sponsored that must goosestep to the little red book. Around here NPR informs me that white people cannot understand geopolitics because the rest of the world is not white except for europe who does understand because of large amounts of correctly colored immigration. Only jews may be deliberately discriminated against and Sammi Al Arian is a man who unjusly is being accused of assisting terrorists because they only attack jews and thats ok. As you say it is regional. I beleive in government funding for the arts without censoring what is acceptable because western civilization from the the greeks, to the industrial age has supported bad artists out of nobless oblige. Since here we have no monarchy that demands 10% and a church that demands 10% automatically deducted and both covered the poor as well as artists it is money well spent. Government money spent on entertainment should be given equally. If the show pulls listenership it should be allowed to go on no matter what agonizing horrors the camp followers go thru when a dissenting DJ is heard in public. Farting in church is not a hanging offence. thanx, bill will work for cash and other incentives [link\|http://home.tampabay.rr.com/boxley/resume/Resume.html\|skill set] questions, help?

Besides, you haven't been doing your homework - the amount paid by "The Government", about a postage stamp a year per capita; maybe even less by now - is hardly even 14% of the budget. Newt's long-term defunding ploy has pretty much worked.. and will hardly be noticed, given the digital attention span. As a result, Archer-Daniels-Midland and others are getting their smarmy messages on as 'sponsors', more and more often. When Murica has a "non-commercial public network" - it will be the most commercial non-commercial network ever devised. (As was noted years ago: when Murica builds a small car - it'll be the biggest, heaviest least economical small car ever.) KPFA-FM, OTOH launched its "listener sponsored" station in early '50s. No govt. support at all. Not many others around elsewhere, I note. We like 'free' stuff. Given that about 1/7 of PBS listeners support with $ and the rest freeload, it's pretty clear that Muricans generally, have no idea what TANSTAAFL means anyway - along with all the other things not known. So no need to worry pretty little head that there will actually be more than a token alternative to the homogenized -fotainment. Except on the web - til we start seeing various ISP Ashcroft Security rules, with PATRIOT-II. Nope, nothing to worry about - your preference for a series of wars will be +positively+ 'covered' - it's 'embedded', one might say. Hmmm - maybe it will be handiest for him to just shut down PBS "funding". But then - with the pittance of 14% yanked: it will survive anyway, till physically trashed by the Home Guard. Ashton

I'll assume that when you say "NPR" you are referring specifically to local programming on your NPR affiliate station, rather than anything from the mothership in DC (a charmingly undistinguished, slightly shabby building they bought or leased used, by the way--I was encouraged to see that NPR had the sense not to commission a palace), since I've been following the national programming for about a quarter of a century now without hearing anything resembling your lampoon. Am I correct here, or--are you receiving these "special" broadcasts through your fillings? cordially, "Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist."
