I used to call the Federal funding, “The Copper Ration for Public Broadcasting,” especially after the Conservatives started going after it.

At least they’re advertising what you’re using. Other stations advertise stuff they want you to want.

Out here in Minnesota we’re lucky to have the best public radio station in the country – 89.3 The Current. Awesome music selection even during the fund drive. I’ll put up with a good fund drive over the same four songs every hour with 25 minutes of insipid commercials every time…

I would love to know how much I need to give to NOT sell my information to literally every other charity in the nation that can afford to pay public radio money for that information. You can keep the manatees mating mix tapes, just don’t sell my personal info to everyone with cash at the ready.
