The $1.1B cut to CPB via the Big Beautiful Bill isn't about emergency alerts—it's about ending taxpayer-funded propaganda disguised as "public media." FEMA's $22B budget handles disaster warnings, while CPB shovels cash into NPR's coastal elite programming like "How I Built This" rebroadcasts and DEI consultants.

If hurricanes are the concern, redirect that $1.1B to hardened infrastructure instead of Sesame Street reruns. Bureaucrats crying about "lifesaving alerts" ignore that NOAA Weather Radio exists—and isn't funded by PBS grants.
