Right now, whilst most people rely on commercial broadcasting, they don’t owe anything to you. Their only obligation is to their shareholders, who want to make more money. Advertisers can threaten to pull funding if they disagree with certain reporting.

📣Have your say in a global survey on public service media! I need your help—your voice matters. I’m writing a paper on the role & challenges of PSM, especially with calls to defund NPR & PBS. It’s vital to understand its impact, not just in the U.S., but globally.
