This may sound like something out of a “Snopes entry”:http://www.snopes.com/politics/arts/pbs.asp, but it looks like the House is actually looking to “cut all funding for NPR and PBS”:http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/06/09/AR2005060902283.html over the next two years.
If that angers you as much as it does me, then consider signing the “MoveOn petition telling Congress to save NPR and PBS”:http://www.moveon.org/publicbroadcasting/.
