A majority of the
public judges that the amount of
|
|
|
government
support that PBS receives is too little. When
|
|
|
told that PBS
receives 15% of its funding from the federal
|
|
government,
translating to about one dollar per person
|
|
|
per year of
government support, 51% of Americans said
|
|
|
the government
was giving too little money.
|
|
|
| • |
Just 8% feel
this amount of support is too much.
Another
|
|
35% say it is
about the right amount.

Those most likely
to feel that PBS receives too little
|
|
|
money from the
federal government include people with
|
|
|
a college degree
(56%), those aged 55-64 (59%), and
|
|
|
blacks (67%).
