if people actually cared about this station then it wouldnt need govt funding. of course you have a small group of people who insist that it is in the public interest...but if it really were they wouldnt have a funding issue in the first place. this is a true test for folks who believe in the public broadcasting system. put your money where you mouth is!

and dont give me that garbage about people who cant afford the alternative programming on cable. if you depend on any TV station to entertaion your children youve got priorities to examine.
