There's an important distinction between https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_broadcasting and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_media though. I'm pretty into the former but share your distaste for the latter.

From a practical perspective I completely agree, but my nightmare scenario for PBS isn't seeing it defunded, but seeing it lose some or all editorial control. That scenario seems very unlikely at present, but not impossible. I just wanted to point out that it's not a completely unreasonable case to make.
