The US has NPR and PBS but I'm guessing they're not as influential as the CBC is in Canada

I don't even think PBS & NPR are as well funded (though I don't have sources to support that). That's why they're always doing telethons and thanking "viewers like you" for supporting their programming.

And they’ve already had massive funding cuts and corporate sponsors stepped in.
