WNYC Pledge Drive Hell

It’s pledge drive time at my beloved NY NPR affiliate, WNYC. Please give generously, so they will shut the hell up!!

My favorite part of the fund drives is when they explain how basic math works ad naseum when they get a “dollar for dollar match” by some rich donor, meaning, as they’ll explain, “That means, if you give $50, we get $100. Or, if you give $75, we get $150. Or, if you give $100, WNYC gets $200. Or…”

Enough. We can all multiply by two!
