On NPR's Morning Edition last week, Nina Tottenberg said that if the >Supreme Court supports Congress, it is in effect the end of the National >Public Radio (NPR), National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) & the Public >Broadcasting System(PBS). PBS, NPR and the arts are facing major >cutbacks in funding. In spite of the efforts of each station to reduce >spending costs and streamline their services, some government officials >believe that the funding currently going to these programs is too large >a portion of funding for something which is seen as not worthwhile.
>The only way that our representatives can be aware of the base of >support for PBS and funding for these types of programs is by making our >voices heard. Please add your name to this list and forward it to >friends who believe in what this stands for. This list will be forwarded >to the President and the Vice President of the United States.
This >petition is being passed around the Internet. >Please add your name to it so that funding can be maintained for NPR, >PBS, & the NEA.
>HOW TO SIGN & FORWARD: IT'S EASY: Please keep this petition rolling. Do >not reply to me. Please sign and forward to others to sign.
>If you prefer not to sign, please send to the E-mail address indicated >below.
>DON'T WORRY ABOUT DUPLICATES. This is being forwarded to several people >at once to add their names to the petition. It won't matter if many >people receive the same list as the names are being managed. This is for >anyone who thinks NPR/PBS is a worthwhile expenditure of $1.12/year of >their taxes, a petition follows.
>If you sign, please forward on to others. If not, please don't kill it >send >it to the Email address listed here:
>wein2688@blue.univnorthco.edu > OR kubi7975@blue.univnorthco.edu > > > >If you happen to be the 150th, 200th, 250th, etc., signer of this >petition, please forward a copy to: wein2688@blue.univnorthco.edu > > This way we can keep track of the >lists and organize them. Forward this to everyone you know, and help us >to keep these programs alive.
>Thank you!
