Are TV channels funded by advertising on average better than TV channels funded by tax payers?

Asked by dotlin (422points) July 30th, 2010

Are corporations such as ABC Australian Broadcasting Corporation and the BBC better due to not having to pander to advertisers, can be more objective, spending more money on certain shows such as documentaries that wouldn’t gain enough in revenue from advertising alone, can experiment with new styles other channels may not want to try?

Over channels such as FOX, ABC, etc?
