It's like arguing it doesn't matter if the stream dries up the plants don't get water from the stream, the plants get the water from the ground. Where did that water in the ground come from? The stream!
You're right, these shows aren't going off the air tomorrow. But this does affect the funding for the shows produced by PBS and NPR.
