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.

Excerpt:

The scene: My youngest daughter and I were returning from a couple of college visits.  We were trying to find a gas station to fill up the rental car so I wouldn’t have to pay the good folks at AVIS $5 / gallon, or whatever exorbitant rate they charge these days.

As is often the case, there were no gas stations near the airport.  We used the GPS to search for nearby stations.  There was one a few miles a way.  Good news, right?  Not exactly.

We went down a narrow, winding road through the woods and came to a road by the river.  Then we went along the river for about a mile.

What? It’s still Friday night on the west coast, and I don’t want to go to bed.

Here’s what the new Republican program is all about:

YouCut – a first-of-its-kind project – is designed to defeat the permissive culture of runaway spending in Congress. It allows you to vote, both online and on your cell phone, on spending cuts that you want to see the House enact. Vote on this page today for your priorities and together we can begin to change Washington’s culture of spending into a culture of savings.

Here is the announcement for the new program:

And they announce what people vote to cut every week, and submit a bill to do it! Then they show the voting results.

Here’s week #1, announced by Tom Price:

Here’s week #2, announced by Michele Bachmann:

And you can suggest your own program to cut at the web site! I want them to abolish the Department of Education.
