A year later, Obamacare still faces bipartisan opposition. Public sector unions have awakened a sleeping giant. It is irrelevant which way public broadcasting tilts--the problem is that it tilts at all. Cato founder and president Ed Crane made a rare media appearance yesterday, joining talk radio host Neal Boortz to discuss Libya and...well, a bunch of other things: Wednesday Links is a post from Cato @ Liberty - Cato Institute Blog (Source: Cato-at-liberty) Cato-at-liberty blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=4626791 Wed, 23 Mar 2011 15:01:47 +0100 4626791 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=4544946&cid=t_110596_87_f&fid=36438&url=http%3A%2F%2Ffeedproxy.google.com%2F%7Er%2FCato-at-liberty%2F%7E3%2F73g4ZE1P40U%2F By David BoazI appeared on WFPL, the NPR affiliate in Louisville, Kentucky, today to argue for ending the federal funding for NPR and PBS. Sort of like Daniel in the lion's den. But since I survived, and since NPR stations are using all their government dollars to mount a vigorous radio and internet campaign to get more government dollars, I thought I would pull together some of my writings on the topic. You should shortly be able to listen to the show here. I made the point that we have a $1.5 trillion deficit, and every spending program has to be on the table. But more importantly, as I said in my article on the top ten reasons to privatize public broadcasting, And the number one reason to privatize public broadcasting is: 1. The separation of news and state. We wouldn't want the federa...

Rand Paul (Ky.), they have not detailed many cuts that would seriously slice the deficit? My response: It's Valentine's Day and love is in the air, especially on Capitol Hill where Congress anxiously awaits the 10:00 a.m. arrival of the president's FY 2012 budget. It should be well shredded by noon. And as it is, across the land we'll be hearing the cries of "Not me, please, not my sinecure" -- no more plaintively than from the minions of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.

Kevin Brady (R-TX) has introduced the Cut Unsustainable and Top-heavy Spending Act, which would cut spending by $44 billion annually.  Brady’s effort moves in the right direction but it is a very modest fiscal reform effort. The legislation, which Brady calls a “down payment on getting America’s financial books in order,” chooses targets that have already been proposed by the Obama administration or the president’s Fiscal Commission. Therefore, the proposal should have bipartisan appeal. For example, Brady’s bill would cut Pentagon spending and eliminate subsidies to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Many of the targets represent “house cleaning cuts” that would reduce spending on bureaucratic activities such as printing and federal travel. Th...

I’m from the IRS and I’m here to help.” The author is no less than Lee Bollinger, former dean of the law school at the University of Michigan and now president of Columbia University, my undergraduate alma mater. As with many an academic, Bollinger has long been a friend of public-private partnerships: indeed, one could say he has lived by them. But the partnership at issue here is so fraught with peril that one wonders how it can be advanced as uncritically as it is in this little piece. The argument, in essence, is this.

Dr Bernard Carroll, for instance, posted here and here, and I posted here (with links backward).We have also posted about how well-intentioned public broadcasters seem to have got caught up in the web of health care conflicts of interest. Here we talked about how a drug company ended up funding a special on obesity, and here we talked about the involvement of a device and a drug company in the "Mysterious Human Heart."In late June, the Columbia Journalism Review included an article by Paul Scott about how a US Public Broad...

For a sense of her views, here’s an interview I recommend that she recently did with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

(See our post here.)Last week, Gardiner Harris, writing in the New York Times, indicated that the show's host, Dr Frederick Goodwin, had even more extensive financial ties to pharmaceutical companies than were previously known.An influential psychiatrist who was the host of the popular public radio program 'The Infinite Mind' earned at least $1.3 million from 2000...

Earlier this year, the issue arose when PBS aired an episode of a health series that was underwritten by Glaxo - just as the drugmaker was awaiting FDA approval to sell its Alli diet pill over the counter. The latest dust up occurred this month as PBS aired a three-part series called ‘The Mysterious Human Heart.’ As Roy Poses at Health Care Renewal notes, Medtronic and AstraZeneca were two of three corporate sponsors. And not only do those companies sell heart-related products - defibrillators and cholesterol meds, respectively - but both have had troubles with those same products. Ye...

The ban will begin at the end of the year.Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments (Source: The Cancer Blog) The Cancer Blog blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=528058 Sat, 07 Apr 2007 04:00:00 +0100 528058
