I'm divided. In the short term, if this leads to the demise of public programming and/or even more commercials/pledge begging, I'll be qutie upset.
However in the long term, if the stations manage to pull in the funding from elsewhere, I'll be happy to see them free of meddlesome (and quite probably illegal) government pressure like has been seen recently.
