President Trump orders Corporation for Public Broadcasting to end federal funding for NPR and PBS

28. I'm doing the same.

I wrote our NPR station asking if there was a way to find out which NPR stations in the US had a greater need for support or were vulnerable. They replied that they had no record of such. Local stations buy from NPR and other sources to fill their roster.

So, if one wished to support furthering NPR in areas that have the greatest need they'd have to research the local station's financial status, percent of NPR programming and the number of hours they are able to broadcast NPR programming. It's not easy. Many NPR sources are funded and run by universities and one can assume they are fairly well supported, others are private. But I'd like to zero in on the most vulnerable stations to help expand or keep broadcasting NPR. I've done some research myself but I just don't know the details of how the system works. Questions come up like, "Which stations broadcast both left and right leaning material?" It gets muddled.

This morning, my station said that that NPR government support amounts to about 1%, but that there are smaller stations that could be adversely affected by that loss.

Maybe someone has some info on how to weed out such information so we might be able to lend support where it's needed most.
