Quite a few public radio stations in Europe don't have ads. They're paid by taxes and you receive them ad-free.
- numbsafari 2y agoIn the US there is a requirement to make “public service announcements” every so often. Most of them are pre-written in a book by the board and you just read them. I found one about the nutritional benefits of pork rinds and another about the versatility and utility of duct tape and just read those. Many of them were clearly commercial in nature. I forget if we were allowed to make our own.
