Help save PBS from partisan operatives

 

Kenneth Tomlinson, the Republican chairman of the Corporation for

Public Broadcasting (CPB) — the government-funded organization that

was designed to shield PBS from political pressure — is aggressively

pressing PBS to correct what he considers " liberal bias. "

 

This top-down partisan meddling goes against the very nature of PBS

and the local stations we trust. Let the people speak and decide the

future of PBS, not secret dealings by White House operatives.

 

Sign this petition to demand that Congress, the CPB and PBS station

managers remove Tomlinson and support town meetings in your community

on the future of PBS.

 

Please join me in an effort to save PBS from meddling by partisan

bureaucrats. This top-down political interference goes against the

very nature of PBS and the local stations we trust. Let the people

speak and decide the future of PBS:
