PBS has outlived its need, if it every had one.  Consumers today have access to more radio stations and TV channels than one can possibly need.  Liberals, of course, will publish fake news that Republicans want to toss Big Bird into a frying pan, reminiscent of Paul Ryan pushing granny over a cliff during the Obamacare debate, but there is no need to worry.  “Sesame Street” and other PBS programs that are worth anything, will quickly find new homes with other broadcasters.
