In my opinion, the rightward correction has gotten even worse since the defunding. For a long time now they've run a graphic showing their corporate sponsors before each broadcast (Meta and oil companies often show up there). They love to say it's "viewers like you" that make them possible, but I think the corporate sponsors are a lot more important. It's been a very long time since the government funding has even been that big a chunk of their income.
