happy to do so: http://www.wnep.com/wnep-lacka-budget-cuts-affect-wvia,0,5816803.story notice, its not just wvia. frankly, i'm not surprised supporters don't know. hell, here it is from the horses mouth: http://www.whyy.org/support/statefunding.html but i'm not just talking about obvious line items, which thankfully, may finally be getting killed off in Pa, i am talking about indirect support too. for instance, WPSU on the penn state campus. they are subsidized by psu, not just financially, but in terms of cheap space, (lots of it!) cheap utility, etc... they built a huge overkill facility with giant plasma screens everywhere and then they cry they're broke??? we're talking about a "business" that pays no taxes, has very few operational expenses, gets subsidized right and left, begs for money from suckers, and still is in the red???? are you kidding me? how can this be? b/c not only do they have TOO MANY useless people, but like so many gov't employees, they get paid WAY TOO MUCH. thats just the fact of the matter. aubuti;479693 Wrote: > If you're referring to the tax subsidies from donations being tax > deductible, then the same argument could be made about any 501(c)(3) > corp, thousands of which you or I may not like to support. i'm not. aubuti;479693 Wrote: > ...which puts them head and shoulders above the 95+% of news/talk radio > that is completely crap. and completely NOT tax funded, and in fact, tax PAYERS. -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 & sbc (my home) / sbr (parent's home) - sbs 7.4.2b - win xp pro sp3 ie8 - p4(ht) 3.2ghz / 2gig ram - 1tb wd usb2 raid1 - d-link dir-655 - 35k mp3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70539 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezenetwork
