Wow. I didn’t think it’d be that high. I expected something like NPR where they get a very small amount of their money from the government and being flagged as government was technically true but functionally meaningless. (For the record, I didn’t agree with NPR being flagged as a government mouthpiece. During the Trump era they were VERY anti-Trump. If they’re owned by anyone, it’s the Democrats, but not necessarily the government.)

70.6% gov funding.
