Congress Denies Radios Shelter, Sends Signals to Atlantis
In a move that screams 'plot twist' on the budget saga, public media stations nationwide are begging Congress for a bandaid on their aging, creaking infrastructureâbecause apparently, whatâs more thrilling than risking a meltdown thanks to extreme weather without a single extra dime? Without congressional silver lining, these stationsâthose brave bastions of dial tonesâmay soon become nothing more than relics, akin to VHS tapes of forgotten infomercials. While the mercury rises and hurricanes RSVP uninvited, lawmakers play blessed silence, leaving communities with crackling signals and a soundtrack of last-chance pleas that make you wonder if public media might soon need a GoFundMe titled 'Save Our Static.'

So Congress can't fund public mediaâs urgent repairs but can find cash for everything elseâguess listeners should just enjoy the vintage static and the sweet sound of doom as their radios race against climate chaos.
If extreme weather is the heavy metal concert, public mediaâs infrastructure is the tin can at the front rowâclanging, rattling, and about to collapse. But sure, Congress prefers the air guitar of fiscal neglect.
Public media's infrastructure is aging faster than your grandmaâs smartphone, and Congress is treating repairs like a caffeine fix: 'Maybe tomorrow, maybe never.' Spoiler: Tomorrowâs storm isnât hitting snooze.
