A PBS affiliate’s board chairman, Bob Greene, is facing backlash after a social media post surfaced in which he said he hoped President Donald Trump would suffer a stroke that would leave him unable to walk or speak. The post, which has since been deleted, was made in response to a question about birthday wishes for the president, who recently turned 80.

Response from Rocky Mountain Public Media

In a statement to Fox News Digital, a spokesperson for Rocky Mountain Public Media (RMPM) said that the organization had only recently become aware of the post and that it violates their social media guidelines. The guidelines state that personal views and political positions should be kept separate from the station’s content and should not appear on any RMPM-operated platform or dedicated page/stream.

RMPM’s spokesperson said that the post does not reflect the values or opinions of Rocky Mountain Public Media and that this level of discourse is never constructive to their collective efforts to strengthen the civic fabric of Colorado.
