Cheryl Halpern is the chairperson of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. About 90% of the 2005 budget was distributed to public broadcasters across the country, including both local and national organizations.[2] CPB also distributes money directly to PBS and NPR to fund both programming and equipment. In 2004, for instance, about US$38 million went to PBS itself and about US$2 million went to NPR itself.
Ms Halpern historically has a Republican party affiliation but may or may not meet the critieria of "neocon" which is very specific label. Despite her affiliation and presumably alleged agenda, there are a number of other board members of both party affiliations. Actions require a vote of those members.
There are those who would argue that PBS and NPR are very liberally biased and needs to make a moderate swing. I doubt any of this will affect the selection guests, commentators, or views of the broadcasters - which means that the net net of all of this is zero.
