President Trump signs order seeking to end federal funding for NPR and PBS

[Starmix]

According to the report, President Donald Trump signed an executive order Thursday directing the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to end federal funding for America’s two biggest public broadcasters, which have faced a series of attacks from the White House and Republican lawmakers accusing them of biased reporting. The order instructs the CPB’s board to terminate direct funding for National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service to the “maximum extent allowed by law and shall decline to provide future funding.” It also orders the board to take steps to “minimize or eliminate” indirect funding to NPR and PBS. The corporation, however, is a private entity that is supposed to be protected from government interference, including executive orders from the president. The corporation is currently suing Trump because the White House tried to terminate three of its board members earlier this week.

Donald Trump approach to governance is something i find difficult to understand. United States have never have such a bloated ego president. He is so full of himself and always sees anybody that don't support him as enemy.

These broadcasting networks had better not attack the Trump government. They lose and it is hard for them to reconcile with the US government.

These broadcasting networks keep on attacking the Trump government. They are oppositions, the pro Democrats. They have to face the reality that that the winners in the election and the appointed cabinets are Republicans. They better have used their coconut shells.
