> Outside of PBS, do you have evidence for this claim: "News is/was paid vast sums by the government to tell a certain story"?
Yeah, they wouldn't have to rely so much on Madison Avenue if they were just paying the news agencies to report whatever they want.
Incidentally, I'm not sure I'd characterize even PBS' government funding as "vast sums", either absolutely or relatively (to the rest of their funding).
