Ironically, PBS and NPR do a pretty good job of covering both sides of the political spectrum, whereas Fox News, where commentators love to bash PBS and NPR, actually does a piss poor job of covering both sides of the spectrum.
Like I said before, I'd be willing to end government support of PBS, but not because of any liberal bias. And Sesame Street is still by far and away the best children's programming out there, (although PBS actually does Barney**, which sucks, and some of the shows on for-profit competitors, like Blues Clues, are quite good).
**Fun fact: Guantanamo interrogators would torture their detainees by subjecting them to the Barney theme music! Aaahhh, torture .... good times.
