5. SOUNDBITE (English) David Bauder, The Associated Press:
"They are going to lose $1.1 billion over the next two years in funding. President (Donald) Trump was behind this measure, which will be finalized most likely on Friday by the House, because he and a lot of Republicans in the legislature don’t like how PBS and NPR’s news programs cover Republicans. They say it has liberal bias."

8. SOUNDBITE (English) David Bauder, The Associated Press:
"But the impact of the cuts is likely to have far more wide-reaching impact on the stations, particularly in smaller communities where the federal funding for PBS and NPR is a higher percentage of what they spend compared to larger stations in big cities."

New York – 17 July 2025
12. SOUNDBITE (English) David Bauder, The Associated Press:
"The impacts can be seen in many different ways and will roll out, I think, over the next month or two. One thing that’s not really known for NPR, for example, is that the spending that they get from the feds pays for some of the music licensing that a lot of their stations have to pay for in order to play the music that they have on. NPR says as much as 96% of classical music listening comes on their stations, so an entire art form, in many ways, is threatened by what is going on here."

STORYLINE:
The legislation, which now moves to the House, would have a tiny impact on the nation’s rising debt but could have major ramifications for the targeted spending, from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to U.S. food aid programs abroad.
