By a vote of 284-140, Congress restored funding to public broadcasting.

But, according to the article, the threat to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting may only be building:


"The corporation was created by Congress in 1967 to shield public broadcasting from political influence...Also Thursday, the corporation's board selected Patricia S. Harrison, a former Republican Party co-chairman, as president and chief executive."


"Shield"?

UPDATE: WaPo has this follow-up.
