The Corporation for Public Broadcasting–which funds NPR and PBS–is shutting down, it announced on Friday. 

This follows the Congress voting to cut the funding for the CPB. 

In a press release, the CPB said it will begin an “orderly winddown.” 

“Despite the extraordinary efforts of millions of Americans who called, wrote, and petitioned Congress to preserve federal funding for CPB, we now face the difficult reality of closing our operations,” said CPB President and CEO Patricia Harrison in a public statement. “CPB remains committed to fulfilling its fiduciary responsibilities and supporting our partners through this transition with transparency and care.”

National Public Radio, and the Public Broadcasting System have been widely criticized for for liberal bias for years. 

The majority of staff positions will end with the close of the fiscal year on Sept. 30, according to the CPB, and a small transition team will remain until January 2026.
