Trump Can Remove Public Broadcasting Board Members, Judge Rules
2025-06-09
[DEADLINE] A federal judge on Sunday declined to issue an order to prohibit Donald Trump
...Never got invited to a P.Diddy party...
from removing three board members of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, as the administration seeks to zero out funding for public media stations, PBS and NPR.

U.S. District Judge Randolph Moss wrote that the CPB had failed to meet the threshold to issue a preliminary injunction to halt Trump's effort to remove Sony's Tom Rothman, as well as Laura Ross and Diane Kaplan.

But Moss' ruling does not mean that Trump will be able to wrest control of the board. The judge also cautioned that Trump could not unilaterally appoint their replacements, and noted that the corporation had recently changed its bylaws that restricts the president's actions.

Why is the Gov involved it something being done willingly by the MSM for free?

#1  Get the government out of broadcasting and controlling media including by funding it or NGOs that fund it.
