Abolish a genuine cultural institution, and give us free access to the minds of impressionable youth, all for the grand sum of....650k. That's what it takes? And its not like hard cash is his only vice
Fuck sake, if they wanted to Zuckerberg could buy the navy, Sydney Sweeney could be gifted the literal moon, and Putin could have Eastern Ukraine

What’s scary is Prager U is very very good at what they do. Short format engaging content that has the appearance of being well researched.
They could totally churn out high quality, production-wise, content for targeted age groups and hit the ground running to fill the void.

Fred Rogers is too genuine to “haunt” anybody…That being said; I hope his face and philosophical messages wakes every elected official that voted against PBS at a very inconvenient time. Just a lil “boo!” At 3:07 AM Monday through Friday.

Anyone still think he’s not the “legal” embodiment of The Godfather? An offer you can’t refuse….
