John, it’s Laura Carlson, Chief Digital Officer at the DGA with an urgent update.
|
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down.
|
This is devastating news and yet another victory for Donald Trump. But we’re not backing down – right now we’re calling on DGA supporters to act ASAP to help us hit our signature goal, John:
|
|
<< Will you add your name NOW to OPPOSE Donald Trump’s blatant attack on public broadcasting? >>
|
|
John, this news comes as no surprise. MAGA Republicans have spent MONTHS attacking PBS and NPR:
|
- Marjorie Taylor Greene had their CEO and president testify in front of her DOGE committee in Congress.
- Donald Trump signed an Executive Order to defund NPR and PBS.
- And now, Congressional Republicans have officially stripped essential public broadcasting services of more than HALF A BILLION DOLLARS a year in previously approved federal funding!
|
Now, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting – the largest single source of funding for public radio and television stations – is officially shutting their operations down, and local stations across the country will suffer.
|
But NPR and PBS aren’t giving up – they’re SUING the Trump administration over these attacks!
|
<< So we at the DGA need to know who’s in this fight, John. So we’re asking: Will YOU be one of the 84 supporters we need in Pennsylvania to sign on RIGHT NOW to oppose Donald Trump’s attacks on public broadcasting? Don’t delay >>
