The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) and National Public Radio (NPR) have both quit Twitter as a result of their designation as "Government-Funded Media."

“PBS stopped tweeting from our account when we learned of the change and we have no plans to resume at this time,” PBS spokesman Jason Phelps said. “We are continuing to monitor the ever-changing situation closely.”
