There is no shortage of media in the United States today. When I was a kid, there were 7 TV channels and PBS. That was a lot. I remember visiting my grandparents and they only had 4 channels. In those days, you could argue that the government should subsidize some programming that would not be aired on the limited stations. That is not true now. We have a glut of programming on a vast array of topics. Niche programming abounds. If you can't find your thing on TV, the internet - YouTube, Hulu, Rumble, and so on will have it. Government-funded media was always questionable and is now just wasteful. Any programming that has a sufficient audience will find private media to air it. There is no reason for the American taxpayer to subsidize programming for anyone.
