If you watch PBS a lot much of this information is already known

What is the significance of PBS? I'm not in the US but do get to see
PBS
news (sometimes). I know what PBS stands for but why is watching PBS
(as
opposed to any other US network) of relevance to knowing these facts?

I sometimes forget that this is a global forum. PBS, Public Broadcast
Service, is an American non profit television network that is funded by
the US government and donations. In many ways they have better
programming than for profit television. PBS is not concerned about
profits and will often "tell it like it is". They tend to favor the
scientific communities when it comes to the environment and evolution.
For profit broadcasting will lean against global warming or evolution
views because of commercial funds from polluting companies and religious
programming.
