Fred Rogers Testifies before Senate

I heard on the vomitus podcast 21 that there was a clip floating on Youtube about Fred Rogers testifying before senate in 1969 to secure funding for public television. Nixon wanted to cut the PBS grant in half and Fred Rogers went in and kicked some ass… in the relaxed Mr. Rogers style he is famous for. Bless his soul. With that said, was mr. rogers brain fried on acid? I mean, watch the Sesame Street videos from last post. I’m sure these guys at PBS all hung out at the after party. Hmm. Anyway, thanks to all you PBS peeps from that era.
