Government funding of the arts threatens the integrity of the arts

I'm writing an essay in response to this prompt. I'm confused as to in what way does government funding for the arts threaten the integrity of the arts?

Some people believe that government funding of the arts is necessary to ensure that the arts can flourish and be available to all people. Others believe that government funding of the arts threatens the integrity of the arts.

Weel, there are some who believe that if you take money from someone, you are obliged to behave respectfully towards them. There is an implicit (perhaps explicit) obligation to the donor. The integrity of art, however, is predicated on the artists' complete freedom to express their ideas, even ones that are critical of the government.
