In 2012, the Obama campaign warned that Mitt Romney’s plan to eliminate public funding to PBS would “fire” Big Bird and mark the end of Sesame Street exclusively on public television. Well, that’s happening anyway:

You mean, Sesame Street can survive without public funding? Say it ain’t so!
Obama campaign went after Romney for two weeks on his Big Bird comments. Big Bird now on HBO. Romney was right again.

Remember when Obama accused Romney of killing Big Bird when he wanted to cut funding for PBS. HBO is not publicly funded. #SesameStreet #HBO

I hate to say it, but I think this Sesame Street news makes Mitt Romney's point.
