Fox in the henhouse, again.
What the mother fuck! We’d have no Mr Roger’s had this shitbag been there back in the day. Fuck him!
WTAF? So he can ruin PBS too?
Yup. Bye bye sesame street
Sesame Street isn’t actually owned by PBS, it’s a nonprofit called Sesame Workshop. And it was like 8 years ago that SW was running into funding trouble due to declining DVD sales, and ended up licensing the show to HBO so that they could continue producing episodes at the rate they wanted. PBS now gets episodes several months behind.
TIL, I did not know that. Since I have young kids, I’ve started watching it with them the last couple of years and it’s such an amazing, wholesome TV show. I can’t believe they were running into funding problems, I feel like they should do national fundraising drives and they’d get their funding in a heartbeat (or at least, I sure as hell would donate every year).
