"Americans overwhelmingly see public broadcasting as an unbiased information source," Rep. David Obey (news, bio, voting record) (Wis.), the ranking Democrat on the subcommittee, said in a statement. "Perhaps that's what the GOP finds so offensive about it. Republican leaders are trying to bring every facet of the federal government under their control. . . . Now they are trying to put their ideological stamp on public broadcasting."
