This feels a bit like an orphan crushing machine.
None of this would be happening if the government just funded Public Access properly. They shouldn’t have to resort to selling stuff just to remain on the air.
What do you mean? PBS and NPR have done fundraising drives regularly since inception.
Yes, their situation is worse off now than before because of the current government admin, but to imply they have never needed to ask for money or raise funds is to ignore reality.
And then what? This kind of feels like when a hedge fund takes over and sells all the assets. What do they do when all the paintings are gone? Mr. Rogers’ sweaters? How about recurring revenue model? They have these fancy displays for things like van Gogh. A bunch of original works gathered together with a surreal video screen deployment. They could do something like that.
Ah man, I’ve never really related to FOMO feelings before I imagined the Mr. Rogers Red Sweater Auction.
They could invest the cash and try to secure funding this way; that would be a more sustainable path than just handing out the cash, but probably need a lot more cash as starter to sustain operations at the current level.
cool. happy little trees
