🔵   Trump signs order defunding NPR, PBS for supposed bias

politics

President Donald Trump signed an executive order to eliminate federal funding for NPR and PBS, citing alleged bias in their reporting [2][6]. This move follows a historical conservative critique of public broadcasting, framing these outlets as left-leaning [8]. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funds these organizations, argues that it is independent of presidential authority, challenging the legality of the executive order in court [6][7]. Critics of Trump's actions, including civil society groups, fear that this could undermine independent journalism and democracy by weakening local news organizations [5][6]. Supporters argue that public funds should not support biased media [3][4].
