To be fair though, you cut out the "may have" part. "May have is certainly different than "will have" or "does have," and to me, says that government control is not necessary to be considered government-funded.
Is there really an argument that the CBS is not government-funded. Yes, there are bias implications that Elon and twitter are banking on by doing this, but the CBS is funded by the government. There's nothing wrong with that in itself, but it is a fact.
