at Boer booh R boer reminder dot com. The popcorn moment,
let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go. It's a story.
You need to hear it to believe. Then grab your
popcorn because there is more. I have not shed any
(02:15):
tears at all for NPR National Public Radio. There is simply,
and I'm going to say this as clearly as I can,
no need for NPR. That is different than whether or
(02:40):
not I think NPR should exist. The answer is if
they want to self fund and not take government money,
our taxpayer dollars to engage in real nonsense in terms
of reporting, well then that's fine. Go out there and compete,
do what it is that we do every single day.
(03:04):
By the way, if the question is do we need
to exist, well not necessarily. I think local radio matters,
and I think it matters greatly. But we have to
prove ourselves. We have to go out there and exist
every day. We have to prove ourselves to sponsors, We
have to prove ourselves regarding ratings. We have to show
that we provide a value, and we at WIBC most
(03:26):
definitely provide a value. NPR doesn't have to do that,
and Kathin Maher, the CEO over there, has never had
to do that. Opposed to free speech, opposed to ensuring
that the stories are actually accurate, as opposed to being
ideologically driven. Nah, no one needs NPR. If NPR wants
(03:50):
to compete, NPR is more than welcome to compete. This
brings us to Ken Burns, who is upset regarding what's
going on with the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. This was him.
I don't think he curses in this in this interview
with John Avalon. John Avalon is a noted anti trumper,
(04:14):
and this was their conversation. It's a big deal.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
They killed the the Corporation for Public Broadcasting incredibly short sighted.
It'll hurt mostly rural communities. Maybe that's their intention. They'll
be news deserts. Nobody will be covering the school board
or the city council meeting. They'll miss not only the
children's and primetime programming, but they'll miss you home land
security stuff, continuing education, classrooms, of the air warning stuff
(04:42):
that comes from the PBS.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
That's a lie. It's a lie. Nobody was tuning into
the Corporation for Public Broadcasting or NPR for their local
town council. They were going to local sources for that.
(05:06):
It wouldn't you want the most controversial thing I'll ever say,
the thing that will make more people say I can't
believe you just said that, But it's absolutely true.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
If you wanted to.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Know what was going on in Brownsburg, Indiana, where are
people tuning in more NPR or Rob Kendall. My work
here is done. Everybody, thank you, good night.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
End of the list.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
It's not a debate. There's no question here. No one
is touting there's gonna be news deserts. I'm sorry, everyone's
without a phone and an app. This is a lie,
This is fraudulent. This is a childlike tantrum being happening
(05:54):
here from the film director Ken Burns, who, by the way,
has done some great work and fascinating, a unique and
different It really created a whole presentation. But holy hell,
what a lie, What a fraudulent thing to say. Let
NPR compete. Let them compete, by the way, let them
(06:14):
all compete. There's nothing ideologically strange about what it is
that I'm saying here. Everything is consistent with me. Competition
is good, the market is good. If NBR is so good,
go out there and win. We need it. We don't
corporation for public broadcasting. We need it. We don't Sesame
(06:35):
Street gets tax breaks and gets to sell Big Bird
and Elmo and profit. No no no, no, no, no no no
no no. And I like Sesame Street, not anti Sesame Street.
I'm not anti electric company. I'm not anti three to
two one contact. Am I the only person remembers three
two on contact? I'm not. I'm certainly opposed to the
(06:55):
ideological clap trap that can happen in those places, but
I'm opposed to that everywhere. Go out there and sell
it and then present it to people. That's the answer,
The market's the answer always is the ken Burns here.
(07:16):
That's news deserts, that's just garbage. And if you buy
into that, you're probably somebody who listens to a lot
of NPR
