At least a couple of the non-commercial radio stations to which I listen regularly are currently in the midst of their seasonal fundraising drives or recently wrapped up a drive. I'd suppose that's the case for the public TV stations near me, too, though I'm no television watcher. Have you noticed that it's pledge drive season for radio and TV stations by you, too? Yes

I don't pledge to any, but I do support at least one outlet like that by other means.

I don't listen to nor watch any such non-commercial media, so it's a moot point for me.
