Hey instead of just canceling your Paramount plus subscription, put that money you were spending to good use by donating to npr and pbs

Only about $1.60 per tax paying us citizen was being spent on public broadcasting per year.

Donating $1.60 per month would make up for the loss of budget from 12 taxpayers. If you donate your paramount plus subscription of $7.99 you are making up for the money spent on it from 60 tax payers per year!

If you had the 12.99 subscription? You are making up for the loss of budget that would have come from nearly 100 people.

If just ten people do a donation of 12.99 per month, that makes up for the taxes of 900+ people. Imagine if 100 people did monthly donations? And that's JUST if you do 12.99$ a month.

Consider donating.

Support PBS by giving to the PBS Foundation or by donating to your local station.

NPR+ | NPR Network

Hell npr has a special bonus service if you do 8$ a month^^^^

Cancel some subscriptions you don't use and do this instead.

South Park absolutely obliterated and humiliated the Trump administration and the parent company of CBS Paramount in their test season premiere that debuted last night on Comedy Central

For context, this all started when the Trump administration sued Paramount (CBS) for 20 billion dollars over their Kamala Harris’ 60 Minutes interview claiming it was edited with selected edits only released.

Donald Trump would have probably lost this lawsuit as it’s a very big reach on the grounds of merit. Interviews and TV programs are edited literally all the time, even Trump’s own interviews are edited constantly.

However, Paramount is currently in the process of acquiring a $8.6 billion dollar merger deal with Skydance Media and is afraid that by challenging Donald Trump with the 60 minutes lawsuit, he would deny their merger approval. Mergers would need to be approved by the Trump administration and the FCC. So they ended up settling in court for $16 million dollars.

Then, on a July episode of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert which also airs on CBS, Colbert then criticized Paramount (CBS) for settling in court with Donald Trump, then 3 days later Paramount announces that Colbert’s show will be cancelled after 2026 in part because they are desperately trying to get on Donald Trump’s good side to approve that merger with Skydance. Paramount CBS claimed “financial reasons” as to why they are cancelling Colbert.

In the meantime while this is all happening, Paramount CBS and the creators of South Park Trey Parker and Matt Stone are in back and forth discussions with Paramount to extend the streaming rights to South Park. They eventually reached a deal last week for $1.5 billion dollars.

After the contract was signed on the dotted line, South Park went scorched earth on Trump and Paramount. Mocking and humiliating them and even depicting Donald Trump with Satan which has the White House absolutely furious. No word on how this will impact the Paramount and Skydance merger and if Trump will threaten Paramount again.
