I am also really annoyed when people repeat that it's only 15% government funded or whatever. It's a misrepresentation to the point of lying. Which is further reinforced by: if it's only 15%, why are you having to shut down? It's so dumb.

The CPB is closing, not PBS. PBS says it's 15% funding from federal sources. CPB, well they're closing so who knows.

Please check my link again. It's from PBS.

Are you suggesting that PBS is misinforming people about how much of PBS's funds are government funded?
