The heads of National Public Radio (NPR) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) responded to Republican allegations of liberal bias during a March 26 hearing by the House Subcommittee on Delivering on Government Efficiency.
The hearing occurred a day after President Donald Trump, echoing other Republicans, said NPR and PBS should be defunded.
