PBS Kids Channel: TERMINATED

PBS Worships the Almighty Dollar

As you may already know, PBS Kids is no longer on FTA. PBS discontinued the channel and replaced it with a new all-preschool channel called "PBS Kids Sprout." DirecTV no longer carries Kids, but they carry Sprout in place of where Kids used to be (ch. 295). Local PBS Stations do not carry the channel anymore, either. Kids Sprout is not commercial free. Ads appear between shows, not during them. (This channel is a joint operation between Comcast, PBS and HIT Entertainment.) PBS goes commmercial...this is public? [-X [-X :mozilla_cry: :mozilla_cry:
