Reminds me of back when SOPA was in the news how I ranted about how much good internet piracy has done us. The leaked print for Wolverine let us know that even special effects wouldn't be able to save us from the bad writing and how Stephanie Meyer refused to publish Twilight Book 5 after her manuscript was posted to a fan site.

The only way Romney could have bounced back from his crack about PBS is reminding people that for every Sesame Street, Mr Rogers and Reading Rainbow theres a Barney the Dinosaur waiting to be funded by your tax dollars.

Agreed.. Remember, the Sesame Workshop CEO rakes in $684,000 a year.

Have always loved Public Broadcasting programming, but won't be contributing anytime soon.

david_b,
All due respect but your argument against giving to PBS doesn't make sense to me. The CEO of Apple made about 350 million in compensation for 2011. Should I not buy an Apple product because of that? And whatever I buy from them will be obsolete in a year.

david_b said...

You're missing the point entirely, sir... (?)

Do you donate funds to Apple to keep them making laptops..? Do you watch folks on phones calling past contributors, hosts politely pleading for your funds..?

Not sure why I'm explaining this.

Hey, I appreciate the explanation. I still think they are worth giving to. Oh well. And thanks for the honorific.
