Probably not the best idea though for independent journalism. My country had a publicly funded news agency and it was notorious for never reporting any bad thing the government did.
Speaking from the US, so please forgive my underlying bias:
If we could figure out how to actually maintain a “separation of powers” maybe we could actually have a little more “for the people, by the people”. And I don’t mean it as just a US standpoint (though I am quoting our doctines), because I do believe that those ideologies have merit. But here I am in the US, still “wondering” how “separation of church and state” can’t be (and never truly was) maintained.
People hold the power AND people need to be held accountable. I really wish we could find a way to balance that appropriately. Maybe simply throwing around a few more “-isms” could fix it (the last sentence is sarcasm)
Of course, I meant under the assumption that it’s actually independent. It’s definitely possible though I understand in some (many…) countries it would be choosing between the anvil and the hammer.
Or public, like the BBC for example.
