I can't say I watch PBS very much, but I do occasionally listen to NPR. And to borrow a phrase from the West Coast, I find those advertisements hella annoying and I certainly don't think we should emulate them.
If you have an alternative funding plan for NPR, you should publish it.
But I do take issue, perhaps not alone, with what I view as language subversion and manipulation, such as trying to redefine what constitutes advertising or net neutrality. I think there's great beauty in truth and honesty. And I think that's part of Wikimedia's values.
I take issue with being accused of "language subversion and manipulation." I invite you here not to accuse me of it any further.
