How reliable are government-paid broadcasters like Tavis Smiley?

Consider this sample from government-run broadcast media.

Christian taxpayers are paying him to say that about Christians. We would never freely choose to pay a corporation to bash our religion. But we allow the government to do it through mandatory taxation on income. They take a part of our earnings and use it to bash us in public.

Christians really need to think twice about voting to enlarge government. We don’t need to hand nitwits like Tavis Smiley any money. If he’s so good at his job, then lets abolish PBS entirely, and he can find a new job in the free market like the rest of us. I want him to have to work for a living, offering value to the people who pay him. Then we’ll see how anxious he is to insult people who pay his salary.

The nerve of these people. Asking for money in pledge drives after they are already funded by government.

NEVER GIVE A PENNY TO NPR OR PBS. They are anti-Christian bigots.

  1. Well said. That guy is clueless. Blaming Columbine on Christians?! They were professing atheists. No wonder he has to work for the government.

  2. At least the host was willing to say that she disagreed.

    I guess Tavis thinks that everyone in America is a Christian if he is saying the Columbine killers were Christian. Where does he get that information?

    What a nutjob. I don’t give my money or time to PBS or NPR so that is already taken care of. You are right though. They need to have the tax dollars cut off as well.

    1. It doesn’t even matter if he was saying that everyone in America is Christian: Christians don’t go around murdering people for ‘offending’ their faith, etc., so his entire, lunatic, premise has no basis in reality.

  3. I’d like to know where they find funding for PBS in the Constitution.
    The government has one goal – propaganda of all sorts against the Christian faith, marginalize it, extinguish it.

  4. Cassie Bernall & Rachel Scott were attributed to be martyrs, whether that’s true or not; irregardless, by Smiley’s reasoning wouldn’t the victims be moreso Christian.

    1. See, the trouble with you is that you actually know what you are talking about. Whereas Smiley is totally unaware of the facts of the case. He doesn’t know anything about the worldviews of the killers of the victims, he just projects his worldview onto the story and the facts are irrelevant. That’s the left.

      1. The odd thing is Smiley says: “…when you were last here we were starting to have a conversation about your view of Christianity. We’ll come back to that a little bit later in the conversation because I want to pick up on that conversation. I’ve been waiting for months to continue that dialogue.”

        So he’s been waiting for months to say something so rash?
