In high school, you say? Indeed, a wonderful course...that ought to
be required everywhere.
My hat is off to Mrs. Gulick! The intrigue is what the term
"government-sponsored" means. The folks at Radio Netherlands will
argue voiciferously that Dutch law and tradition provides sufficient
separation from the funders and the editors such that editorial
integrity is not compromised.
Whether or not one wishes to divine agendas for all public or private
broadcasters, I'll agree 100% that every broadcaster has some sort of
agenda, and we owe it to ourselves to be comparative listeners.
