    That article is reporting a survey though, which showed 24% of adults supported removing these broadcasters’ funding. The “one quarter” is not about how people voted, it’s about this survey. There’s are links at the end of the article to more information about the survey and its methodology.

      The fact that it’s as low as 24 percent is honestly kinda good, about 20-30 percent of any given population will go with basically anything the survey asks means tat the grouping for the cuts is comfortably in the “Statistical dumbass” region. That’s with decades of right wing propaganda degrading NPR, PBS, etcetera.
