Protect Public Media

Extremists in Congress are pushing through legislation to slash all funding for NPR, PBS and other public media. This is the closest they have ever come to pulling the plug on the news and cultural programming that a vast majority of Americans support. 

Help fight these attacks by urging your representative to stand with the American people and protect public media.  Click here to sign a petition to put Congress on notice, that: It can't use politics to eliminate the best sources of news and programming in America.
 
For some communities, local NPR and PBS stations are the only source of serious reporting. They also employ thousands of journalists — at a time when commercial newsrooms are shedding jobs. (This article is brought to you by, Free Press Action fund)
