| #12 I don’t like federal funding of public television. I like the Feds funding someone else’s television even less. You can’t even argue that the BBC was producing Pro-US propaganda. They can hate us for free. |

| #11 Donors look like less than 15M pounds, out of a total budget of about 2500M pounds. Just to put it in perspective. |

| #10 So USAID was paying BBC to run articles calling for the prosecution of Bukele for jailing the soldier gangsters of El Salvador? The BBC who embedded with and game media alliance to the soldier gangsters of Hamas? The BBC who runs hit pieces on the native people of the UK? |

| #7 USAID employee says staffers hid pride flags, 'incriminating' books when DOGE arrived This means they are smarter than they look. The Petulant Child would have doubled down and made a big deal about their "You're not the boss of me!" defiance. I wonder if any USAID money goes to National People's Radio (NPR). Not directly, of course, but via intermediaries. A standard NPR trope is that they are not government funded but "listener-supported, by people like you", which is kinda sorta true. Basically, the grift is USAID, etc. gives money to The Center for Media Excellence which makes a grant to the Media Excellence Center which passes out cash to local NGOs, QUANGOs, and fellow travelers who all make donations to NPR during the multiple pledge weeks. See, people like you! And a generous grant from YOUR NAME HERE. |
