To all of the people calling to defund PBS and NPR, here are some facts:
- NPR receives approximately 0.6% of their funding from federal grants. The vast majority of their funding comes from corporate sponsors, and donations.
- Fox News has saved millions of dollars through dodging US taxes by opening shell companies in the Cayman Islands and elsewhere.
- Tesla, SpaceX and Solar City all receive substantially more in government funding than NPR.
