[QUOTE="clueless, post: 778595, member: 15572"] The problem with that comparison is that the private sector cannot (legally) engage in wars with other countries! That is solely the purview of the federal gov't. whereas broadcast tv/radio programming can and should be done commercially--think the Discovery Channel, the History Channel, The Learning Channel, Animal Planet, National Geographic Channel, ad infinitum. Additionally with the advent of the internet and alternative media, virtually anyone can widely disseminate an opinion or information in real time for little cost. There is no longer any excuse or need for 'public' television or radio funded even partly at taxpayer expense. [/QUOTE]
