The head of PBS says President Donald Trumps executive order aiming to slash public subsidies to PBS and NPR is unlawful. Public Broadcasting Service CEO Paula Kerger said Friday the Republican president's order threatens PBS' ability to serve the American public with educational programming as it has for 50-plus years. Trump signed the order Thursday, alleging bias in the broadcasters reporting. Trump's order instructs the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and other federal agencies to cease Federal funding for Arlington, Virginia-based PBS and Washington, D.C.-based National Public Radio. The broadcasters get roughly half a billion dollars in public money and have been preparing for the possibility of stiff cuts since Trumps election.
