PBS later followed NPR’s lead in announcing that it would stop tweeting after its accounts received the same “government-funded media” label

NPR on Wednesday said that it is suspending its use of Twitter after clashing with the social media company and its owner Elon Musk over a controversial new “state-affiliated media” label applied to its accounts. “NPR’s organizational accounts will no longer be active on Twitter because the platform is taking actions that undermine our credibility by falsely implying that we are not editorially independent,” the broadcaster said in a statement.

PBS is primarily funded by the public and philanthropic organizations, with only a small portion of our funding coming from entities affiliated with government.” The moves by NPR and PBS threaten to undermine one of Twitter’s key selling points — its role as a central hub for news — especially if other outlets follow in NPR’s footsteps. Twitter has also faced backlash over applying a similar “government funded media” label to the BBC, which is also primarily funded by the public.

As a taxpayer, I think that label is great

But they are government funded news. How should they be labeled?

😁

HiddenSecretsInQuran It is written in Quran Surat Furqan 25 verses 52 to 59 that there is only one God named Kabir who forgives sins. Allah Kabir

😂

Oh damn. The government funded news doesn't want the government label. Even they don't want to be associated with this shite show.

Liberals continue to hate facts

Are they not?

Elon did right by labeling them as they are. It’s nice to be one a platform free from liberal disinformation

Your next commienewsnetwork

Bye Felicia 😂 👋

GOOD RIDENCE TO BOTH... CNN PLEASE BE NEXT

Ohhh nooo nooo pleeeease nooooo!

So?

CNN (China News Network) should follow!

Happy to see that government funded media is sticking together & saying bye to Twitter!

🤣

Neither one is a legitimate source of honest reporting. All they do is carry water for the Brandon Identistration. Leftist spin.

I seriously waiting for you guys to leave too tbh. Propagandists...Fox too, and have the remaining anchors start their own podcasts. If they suck, no one will listen to then period.

Thank God !

Both are government funded media. I don't understand what the problem is.

Lmao Cry babies !!

Ok! See ya. 😁😁

CNN IS ALL PROPAGANDA AND LIES FAKE NEW

But… they’re government funded 🙄

Didn't notice either one. 🤷🤷🤷

I always thought that NPR was proud of being state media, why are they so touchy?

CNN should follow in a twitter cleansing exercise to rid it of the lies and fake news

It is after all what both are... Follow the money...

PBS and NPR will not be missed except for those who owe allegiance to the CCP

You been caught!! LOL

Wow, this is a huge statement by PBS! It's great to see media outlets take a stand and prioritize journalistic integrity over the fear of political backlash.

‘We are not government funded media.’ - Government Funded Media.

Guess they don’t like the truth

Good news.

They'll be back 🙌 They don't really have a choice...

It’s true. They receive government funding. Why deny

They are.

Elon should label y'all the same way...

Awesome. Good riddance.

Good -not needed any longer It’s all them and division

Sweet. Are you next?

Stop tweeting? npr NewsHour should close their accounts and leave. Everything they post is directed disinformation and we all know it.

Amanpour is the most Liberal on PBS & she's been caught lying many many times just like CNN. LOL

C un t network... when are u going off the grid ? leave NOW

Good.

Time to defund both NPR and PBS. CNN is dying without anyone's help.

As a company it’s their prerogative where they want to express their views. What they’re probably upset about is that they thought most of us didn’t know that they were bought & paid for to repeat what the Democrats want us to hear. Elon just wanted people to know who owns them.

Truth hurts huh? It’s about time we label these organizations for EXACTLY what they are. We conservatives & libertarians have known for a very long time. It’s the nitwits on the left who can’t think for themselves that can’t tell the difference.

Both will quietly come back as a result of monetization Term limits for Congress!

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Aren't they?

😄😄😄

As a long-time (decades) supporter of WBEZ in Chicago I'm delighted to read this. NPR has been irrelevant for years and particularly harmful during the declared pandemic. I say with relief, but also genuine sorrow - I learned many useful things over the years: Good riddance.

No loss

The truth hurts. Of course, as I remember, in these various Covid bailouts, they were tens of billions of dollars for the main stream press. So maybe elonmusk should label all main stream press, “government funded media”. Unless you want to disclose and give it back, that is?

Feel free to leave in solidarity with them. You won't be missed either.

🤡

tommyBoomboom If you receive tax payer money as part of your funding, you are government funded. Twitter is not wrong to alert people who have no idea that this is the case.

When the government pays the bills why bother trying to make money

Both are horrible anyway. Who believes anything they report and broadcast anymore. Totally controlled fake woke garbage. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Sounds like a win...when are you next CNN? I think people are done with the communist news network

Meanwhile at CNN

No loss.

Good

BA-BYE! All the BETTER FOR AMERICANS... Getting that 'Govenment Rat Pack' off Twitter means LESS PLATFORM FOR YOUR PROPAGANDA! SEE YA!

The god 👍🏻

NPR is government funded. FACT. Grow up.

What’s weird is I’ve never seen a post from PBS or NPR.

And just who do you think is going to miss them?

Twitter should also highlight any media corporation that takes money from Bill Gates or George Soros.

This will end them

When are you commies going to stop tweeting?

Why are they so ashamed to be government funded?!? They want to hide the source and motivation for their biases and misleading narratives?

GOOD.... I hope you follow suit

Oh how we will miss Biden’s message-I mean your independent opinion

Easy stop taking government funding then.

PBS and NPR are in lock step with the US establishment. The one thing they hate the most, is transparency. Just look at what they do to whistle blowers. They want the public to believe that controlled media is somehow free and alternative.

I'm surprised they haven't attached the label to CNN or MSNBC yet!

The label is accurate

You're next 🤣🤣

Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Will you be joining the propaganda to leave Twitter as well? Bunch of fake news cowards.

Truth hurts.

It’s not false. They are funded by our money.

Don't let the door hit them..... Bye bye!

For a news organization to be 'independent' it must be independently funded. A government-funded news organ is a government source. Which is more important to PBS and NPR? Independence or government money ?

Oh no. Whatever will we do. 😂😂😂 Oh and they ARE government funded.

Good. Less liberal propaganda.

It's simple. Stop getting government funding. They won't. Just stop using Twitter. Typical leeches

You along with the majority of the MSM should likewise be labeled state news as you are direct branches of the DNC ministry of propaganda and by extension the federal government.

You will be the next network with that label. propagandapushers

Excellent! Less fake news.

PBS gets even more federal funding

Good. Crap tax funded propaganda machine can fund itself.

CNN should have a propaganda funded media company with low rating like you has to be getting the money from a propped up government system of cable reach around.

Sayonara

They are government funded. Maybe they are suggesting they no longer want government funding? Nah.... Just don't want to be called out for the partisan news they spew.

NO ONE CARES

You should follow them...

So PBS and NPR carry the water for the government, censor and lie at their bidding, and when called out, they cower and go away. Keep exposing these frauds! Light is disinfectant.

YAWWWWN

Good riddance to Propaganda. Hope they lose their funding.

Hey hey hey, goodbye.

Bye bye! Hate to say it, but you won’t be missed … 😲

PBS literally stands for PUBLIC BROADCASTING SERVICE and is funded by both the government & the public…. I guess the truth is now hate speech too

It's called PUBLIC in it's name. It is funded by the government. I don't see the issue. Not that anyone cares what PBS tweets

Good! Two down, more to go. Hey CNN, take the hint. You're state TV for the Hitler regime in the WH right now. Biden and his goons.

Truth is leftist cryptonite.

They are indeed government funded, just as CNN is Democrat Party affiliated.

👋🏻 👋🏻

Now we have to stop funding pbs and npr with tax payer money. They are both part of the democratic party and we should not have to pay for them.

Another W

good less misinformation on the internet.

F PBS, communist Marxist media outlet, paid with our good tax dollars. F PBS and NPR.

Wow, Twitter may end up being the only place to get factual news soon. Let’s hope this trend continues and the rest of the gov propaganda machines leave. Thanks elonmusk !!!

Good! CNN should be next!! CNN = Commie News Network

Boy - those state-funded media companies sure hate to let people know they're state-funded media. CNN and MSNBC should get the same label.

Truth hurts…

Happy Friday Everyone

Thank Jesus!!

So you next ?

Does PBS and NPR received funding from the government? Yes? Well, guess what they are then…

Serves them correctly

It’s a simple fix. Don’t take federal and state money and guess what?! The tag will disappear. They don’t want to because… reasons? 🤣

I would ask that you show me one article where PBS or NPR disagrees with government policy. They will back it up no matter how flip-flopping and 180 out the subject is long as it's from the US government.

I'm sure all 23 of their fans are brokenhearted that they're no longer talking about whatever the hell it IS that they talk about on Twitter. I wouldn't know - I'm not one of the 23. But I have to say that I couldn't care less either way because neither exists in my world.

Awesome news!!

Stop Goverment funding of PBS and NPR now! All they report is liberal propaganda at the taxpayers expense.

CNN is pure garbage, a network that sold its soul to the deep-$$$$$$tate long ago. It's nothing but an overpaid mouthpiece for the vastly crooked government, exactly the opposite of what real 'news' and 'journalism' is supposed to be.

Great, less leftist bullshit on my feed.

Facts Matter! Who funds you then

I have no problem with either of these two leaving Twitter. Bye-Bye

Lol PBS is literally government funded!!! Wtf

You're Next 🙃

que all the musky suckers explaining to us all how this was some genius 4d chess move by elon

when CNN?

Fake lying news needs to be labeled as such.

But THEY are Goverment Funded media. Should that Not Be Covered or Covered Up 🤔 Are they Ashamed of the Truth and how this appears to be State Media? Solution: Run from Social MEDIA that Reports their Federal Funding Truth ... seriously State Media? 😆 🤣 😂

Y’all should have the same label.

The left is allergic to the truth.

CNN you are government funded too? If not you are getting ripped off cause you parrot their message everyday..

CNN Is fake news as well. They should follow their lead

What's even funnier, the other funding comes from state governments, station fees from public universities.

NPR The fact that you get 97% of your operating capital from the government and don’t want to own the truth is funny.

Great idea from pbs-npr. At this moment in america's history they are nothing but a communists' tools.

I am still trying to figure out how they are government funded? Both only exist from donations..

Good!

The truth hurts?

NPR and PBS brag about being state funded, then cry they are labeled state funded. Lying to us about what we see w our own eyes & hear with our own ears, that's also Leftist. Leftwing fascists are worried others will see that communism is being brought to the US by the left.

PBS had a twitter account?

It’s like a fat girl getting mad when you call her fat. Like, ummmm… I just called you what you are. Sometimes the truth hurts.

Tragic loss of trash fake news serving leftist communist

Government operated TV

So they want to continue getting govt funding but don’t want twitter to acknowledge it. Ok, sounds about right to me.

Why do we need either of them anyway? The public should not be funding them. If so then content should be party neutral and balanced.

Please make sure the BBC and the (Aus) ABC follow suit Would make our days 🙂

It’s like they keep getting “corrected” by the community and don’t like it… the queens of Coronavirus disinformation are being dethroned by scientific facts from experts which both PBS and NPR silenced and called crackpots.

They ARE Government funded media 🤡

Truth hurts?

They are drawing themselves out of the tree line. How interesting.

Great move buying Twitter, eh Elon?

Excellent example of 'The Truth Hurts'

You guys don't like truth either.... might as well hit the door too

Police STATE NEWS

I think CNN should follow PBS and NPR. It’s the right thing to do CNN.

What are you afraid of YOU ARE GOVERNMENT FUNDED MEDIA!!!

Woohoo

But aren't they?

I followed them on Twitter. That was my access to them. Sad, I liked their content. I will miss having them on the platform. They will lose lots people who only accessed them through twitter.

As they should. Goodbye Liberal mouthpieces!

Lol. Are they hoping they'll start a boycott of Twitter because they're leaving?

They should, as their tweets are a tool for the state run media filled with propaganda and lies. They would need to be continually fact checked & put in Twitter jail. They are an enemyofthepeople

Not even disputing it is the strongest evidence that the label is appropriate.

Truth hurts

Defund both.

CNN is next staterunmedia

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out!

cnn is next hopefully

Literally no one cares and we are great for both outlets are off of Twitter!

Good. Twitter was best before celebrities and journalists were oni t.

Buh-bye

Well receiving hundreds of millions does qualify as government - funded.

How is this possible…they literally don’t want to be labeled as what they are 🤦🏽‍♂️

Their misinformation and disinformation won't be missed - bye!

Excellent! Now if and MSNBC would leave Twitter look at how much better it would be!

This is how liars react.

Why does the truth and owning up hurt the leftists and their thin skinned media. NPR has always been federally funded, Elon is making it known. Nothing wrong here. I think you all need a course on virtues. Something Harvard won't teach you. moonbats

Good. Less lies on the internet.

Goodbye

Good no one will miss the leftists media...

Awesome!!! Who’s next?

Aww their losing their platform oh well

That'll teach them....

This is great news!

WTF do they think the “P” stands for?

Now if we could just get CNN of twitter. Twitter would be more factual.

They are government funded .

Both government funded……😂😂😂😂 Truth hurts…..their whittle feel-wings!

Now if everyone that works there quits their job and shuts down the organization in protest, that will really be a gut punch to Elon and people that don’t like them

Great! A lot less fake news on here then! I only want truth and facts!!!

Please tell me what is wrong with the label other than pointing out all Americans are funding them and they are supporting a progressive platform. Oh wait they don’t like being called out.

'CAN'T handle the truth!'

This is fantastic!

No one cares.

Who cares? Just their government sponsor? Hmmmmmm

This is like an only fans girl getting pissed off cuz everyone calls her a whore. How can you be mad?

Can CNN follow?

CNN needs to be added to the government funded media as well!!

Ok. Bye. You should do the same.

And no one will notice

Further roof that they’re just activists and not serious about journalism.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Awesome!

Good bye and good riddance.

PBS & NPR

Filed under 'could not care less'

They are shooting themselves in the foot and it is glorious to see

Even Liberals hate who they are.

They wanted to ... soo what

Very good news!

Aww, the propagandists are fleeing

😀😀😀

Propaganda outlets.

LOL. Bye.

Let's see how that works out for them.

NPR & PBS decided to leave twitter but not refuse government funding so they'd lose that title 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Stop taking taxpayer money, or deal with accurate label.

😂😂😂😂

'Oh happy day!'

CNN should also get off twitter if that’s the case considering all the government propaganda money they take in. 🤷🏻‍♂️

All right ! A twofer for Twitter.

God how I wish CNN would follow!

Both are government funded liberal fascist propaganda outlets! If they weren’t neither one would be leaving! Just proof of their liberal fascist bias in their disinformation messaging! Good riddance!

🥳

CNN deserves the same label. Cry some more bitches.

Is it true? Isn’t PBS funded by donations and royalties?

It's CNNs turn !!!

Well……..they are 🤷🏻‍♂️

🥾

Prove its false.

Good

Oh shit my life is now so much more miserable w/o PBS & NPR 😂.

You are next 😎

Defund the democrats propaganda outlets

Lol. CNN deserves that label, too, except you spread regime propaganda for free.

Hopefully u next cnn 👀👀😘😘

They were tweeting? I had no clue anyway. 🤷

Nobody cares

Yay!!!!!

CNN is probably gov funded

Haha... publicly authorized as regime media... congratulations...

You’re next

Good riddance. The best solution is to remove all taxpayer funding and remove the word “public” from their names. They can substitute “people’s” or “communist” instead.

Cnn next or what ?

It’s okay they left. Plenty of other news out there.

And so began the start of the end for said organisations.

Do you know what else is government funded? All of Elon Mush room Head's business endevours. ll the tax breaks and sweetheart deals probably net him more than NPR and PBS get COMBINED! ALL YOU CONSERVATIVE JACK WODDS SHOULD JUST GO WALK INTO THE SEA!

You're next, although 'state affiliated' might be more appropriate.

Good riddance. CNN should follow suit.

Less propaganda and disinformation thank you and bye 👋 elonmusk now CNN

Yay!

If they don't like the truth, they can always give up the government funding.

What's wrong with coming to reality that government funding is there for the channels. It doesn't say anything else

Can we really have an unbiased social media outlet? If not, then, which outlet out there comes near to being independent and unbiased?

Elon is correct.

I've been muting right-wing 'news' sources.

When is CNN gonna stop?

i wondered why twitter reads better suddenly

glass heart

GREAT NEWS !!! LET FAKE NEWS CNN be Next !!! 🗑️

So they are not National nor Public.... ...Got it.

Fantastic. Hopefully CNN and MSNBC will go next. Elon cleaning up Twitter. If NPR can’t live with the truth, so be it. They ARE state sponsored.

Really weird that government funded media orgs would be this upset about being accurately labeled as government funded. The tag doesn't even imply that they're propaganda.

Good riddance

Don't want the tag? Stop accepting govt money. It's pretty simple.

so what,means less misinformation on twitter

😂😂😂😂🤡🖕 Awe, the poor state funded megaphone for the Left got it's little feelings hurt! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

In the real news today

CBC in canada is next

Ok. Cool

Independent? Yes, but you lean heavily left, while conveniently forgetting about the right.

I’ve noticed the improvement on Twitter already

Don't worry your label is coming soon also CNN

Good, less propaganda

Who really gives a crap, wont miss them!!

Nobody cares about their “Schweedy Balls”🤣🤣

And that according to an account with a yellow checkmark 😜

They will be sorely missed...not. charliekirk11 dbongino kayleighmcenany GovRonDeSantis IngrahamAngle JesseBWatters Johnny_Joey marklevinshow maddow TheLeoTerrell TheView thereidout Caitlyn_Jenner CharlesHurt VDHanson TuckerCarlson seanhannity PlanetTyrus cnn

Both do get funding, so the label is correct.

Now they know how foreign media like RT, CGTN, and Press TV felt, except that those outlets didn't take their ball and go home.

I notice they aren't closing thier accounts

CNN - Corporate funded news

Libtards spitting out their dummies when confronted by reality is old news.

But they are federally funded. Was it supposed to be a secret?

Some people “can’t handle the truth!”

They could both stop taking government money or not cry about a factual label.

A win is a win

No one cares. Whats their use anyway? They are not trying to provide clean air or anything useful. The truth you see in the mirror is finally said out loud by someone who is not your reflection. Thats always a hard pill to swallow .

How about they stop getting tax payers money to spew leftist propaganda?!

Truth hurts

Do the same!

Maybe they should buy twitter

They're not going to stop lying no matter what

Good less rubbish being pumped into my Timeline when are you quitting CNN ?

I don’t see a “Saudi Funded” label on Elon’s profile. 🤔

CNN = fake news

Good! Now just CNN and MSNBC

CNN fakenews should definitely have that label

CNN you're disgusting, even you know this

When cnn ?

GREATTTT One LESS AH COMMIE broadcaster....

such a mature decision - not childish at all

They don’t want people to know the truth

Truth hurts

CNN doing such awesome journalisming

Hey maybe CNN and MSNBC can follow

The truth hurts. Proof they were hiding sth

👋👋👋👋👋👋

They were too used to having comments censored that proved all their bull shit wrong. Now that Elon put a stop to it, and allows FREE SPEECH, it's a lot harder for them to get away with their propaganda and lies.

Yet here you are, CNN. Show some solidarity.

You’re next

Just waiting till CNN gets the ‘funded by the democrat party flag’

Don’t really need state propaganda machines posting information anyways.

And this was Musk’s goal all along. Get the objective media out so that all that is left are far-right fanatics obsessed with trans people and whose ultimate goal is to peel back all well-fought for human rights.

Lol. Democrat propaganda outlets censoring themselves!

It’s working!!!! F ya

Bye bye. Less Dem propaganda on Twitter.

It’s so hilarious how these “trusted news sources” freak out when anyone actually tells the truth

Can't accept reality.

Take your toys and go home

Why are they so afraid of the obvious transparency? Is it a problem that people know that they are funded by the gubment? NPR and PBS have gone more and more left over the years and thrown objectivity out of the window. Is that the problem? Makes ya think, huh

I’m confused. If they are government funded which they are, why are they trying to separate themselves from that fact?

...and too much backlash against government propaganda and lies directed at United States citizens after the Smith-Mundt act was repealed in 2013. All the news organizations parrot the same lies insisting it's Russian this China that. It's the U.S. destroying the U.S. cya NPR PBS

Ouch 😂

Lol

Byeeeee

What is untrue about both of them being government funded ?

But they're both government funded so what's the problem?

Please be next.

Uggh how did this US state affiliated propaganda site get on my feed

They are government funded!..What’s the issue?

Joe Biden is a crook.

Poor babies😭😭😭

PBS NPR

Oh no, npr wont tweet. what ever shall we do?

Lol

Good!

The truth is hurting cnn or Communist News Network and npr or National Propaganda News

Bye Felicia

Ewwww. I just like a cnn post. I feel kind of gross now.

Whats npr? Radio?

No one watches the Biden state funded media or cares about war criminal liars. ByeBye NulandWarCrimes

At least we don't have to read their fake lying Government Propaganda news

CNN next?

Bye bye

Awww

Great to see there'll be less government sponsored fake ass news. when are you gonna follow suit?

New stations playing politics.

Public broadcasting system lol. CSPAN will be next to disavow being political and govt funded right?

PBS sucks. Used to be chill used to be cool but no mo

Well, they are government funded, lol 😆 Where is the lie?

Bye bye

Freedom of choice and freedom of expression. It should be said, there is this.

Oh please CNN follow the leader.

Youtube has literally had these tags for years and neither of these companies said a word until it was a Elon Musk owned media company 😂

Good riddance, NPR and PBS! FINALLY.... But what took so long? We were aware of your one sided political stance, using pubic funds to promote the narratives. Even if the public $ percentage is small . Still it's tax payer money 💰 👍 Just Saying 👍

Name gam, both the same

Well, It is! So... They're running away from what they are?

PBS was on Twitter?

PBS and NPR are state funded media.

😭

Well, it's the truth and you're upset! It doesn't change the fact that your leftist slant, and agenda are trash....that's why hardly anyone watches this crap. You're 'The View' of news networks.

CNN next?

Aight. Bye bye. 🤣

Smith Mundt Modernization Act. look it up. Obama made it legal for the U.S. govt to push propaganda on the American people!

Cowards.

This is a battle between who has the power to legitimize information: The government or private industry? Choose neither.

elonmusk NPR isn’t state run. It’s National Broadcasting brought to the local cable market.

You guys next?

When will all Legacy MSM just cease to exist? Hopefully they can stop imposing their lies on citizens any further.

Good

If the weren’t publicly funded they’d have been out of business already.

They both suck

Good! I don’t know why we are forced, via taxes, to support either of their biased platforms.

Sweet, cleaning house. Cancel all your support for left wing propaganda

No one cares. It's all left-wing propaganda. Lol

They must not have faith in their product if they feel that less distribution of their news is the right solution.

We’re all waiting for CNN announcement

And nothing of value was lost.

CNN is controlled by the Democratic elites

Who gives a shit! Both are government funded if they take $1. If they took $0 then they wouldn’t be gov funded. Pretty simple

NPR has become a super bias Politicaly Partsian group they myswell mate with MSNBC, Washington Post, and the New York Times - and become ONE

Peace. Don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you!

Well it's not wrong

If PBS isn't government-funded media, what is it?

In the immortal words of Babylon Bee, National Public Radio denies being national or public.

You mean the truth ?

No one cares.

It’s true though. What’s the problem if it’s true. I hope cnn is next

Bye

they may be leaving twitter, but can they credibly argue that they’re not publicly funded? obviously not. because they obviously are…

What exactly are they complaining about? The truth?

Like we care!

Yes. When will CNN say it’s government funded? Well democrat leftist globalists funded. Close enough

Hey CNN, which Trump employee are y’all having on tonight?

Are ya'll next?

They're both government funded They're both bias as F

Seems like a minor win, overall, although they're still government funded.

Ok. elonmusk if NPR and PBS come back, would you be willing to relabel it as community funded?

Those overly sensitive potatoes. Oh the drama...

Only ones left now to be labeled is and MSNBC

So they can't handle the truth?.

But both of them are lol. They're certainly privately funded also. How much has Bill Gates alone donated to both of these outfits the last 3 years? Pretty, pretty please answer that question.

They are finding their lies aren't flying anymore since the un-cancelling of all the truthful accounts that expose the lies. Simple.

hey why don't you ask billie gates what he meant by this?

Who cares

Better headline: Both PBS and NPR voluntarily cut one of their lines of garbage distribution.

So truth pisses them off? Smh

It’s ok because they are government funded. Why are they upset for the truth being told.

GOOD! YOU NEXT, FAKE NEWS ccpcnn!!!

Good! No one cares! When CNN’s turn?

Bye bye

You're next.

Why don’t they want people to know they receive government funding?

Follow your leader

Nobody cares

Finally some common sense

I for one think you should really stick it to Elon and follow suit

Good

Facts are 'hurtful'

Just because it's government funded doesn't mean they're biased.

National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service are upset that they are founded by the government .

Well, it is? 🤷🏼‍♀️

CNN is government funded media 🤡

They are exactly that…. NPR for sure will be back

You also should stop using Twitter, internet in general and go home.... yer drunk.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is good news

cool story

Is CNN next?

With all the dealings cnn has with the American socialist party, I’m surprised y’all haven’t been labeled as government funded.

Saying it was a weak response was enough to piss off a friend. Why?

It's true, why do they care?

Hopefully will follow.

Good

Defund Elon Musk.

And how much money did they accept from Bill Gates?

Great news! Finally getting rid of liberal lying stations. Love it! Thanks elonmusk

Yay

Both have the word “public” in their titles for a reason. So ridiculous

Why don’t they want us know they’re funded by the government?

Fantastic.

Great. At some point only Fox and Breitbart will be the only news (“nEwS”) outlets without the “government funded” label and this app will be even more of a cesspool that it already is.

Why do both PBS and NPR keep insisting they are not government funded? NPR literally scrubbed their website of verbiage saying they were government funded. Why? So they can lie? Lying has become an epidemic.

Where does NPR and PBS get most of its ‘substantial’ funding, aside from the minimal private donations? That aside, why is NPR so definitely so skewed Left in its reportage?

Good. They should get ZERO FUNDING.

It’s actually insane looking back at Twitter prior to Elon. It really was a Dem Gestapo trying to control everyone’s thoughts and speech.

PBS, NPR and CNN are 💩💩💩💩

Propaganda network suits better

And no one cares.

Not a good look.

Now, if only elon would give your garbage network a fake news label you will leave too

They're government-funded. Is the truth that offensive?

I mean it's not a lie.
