Dear Friend, 

Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday, and I'm reaching out personally to ask for your support of PBS News

I don't take this lightly.  Every day, I see our team living the values that make PBS News different. It starts with careful preparation and a sense of curiosity that guides our work long before a story airs. And great journalism requires more than accuracy. It demands editorial judgment that reflects what matters to you, and empathy for the people whose lives shape the stories we tell. 

But here's the thing—we can only do this work with your support. 

This Giving Tuesday, we've set a bold goal to bring in 1,500 new monthly donors. Monthly giving allows us to plan ahead, to invest in the stories that take time to get right, and to be there for you every single day—whether that's on your TV, your phone, or wherever you turn for news. 

In a media landscape that often feels overwhelming, where it's harder than ever to know whom to trust, I want you to know this: PBS News is committed to bringing you reporting you can trust. We hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards, ensuring fairness and balance in everything that goes on air and online. Every person in our newsroom, from reporters and producers to correspondents and anchors, is part of the PBS News family, and we rely on each other completely. When breaking news happens or plans change, our team pivots gracefully, adapting without compromising quality. This is the journalism you've come to trust, and it's only possible because of your support. Will you make a monthly gift today to help us continue this vital work? 

Your monthly gift makes a real difference. It means we can send reporters into the field. It means we can bring you diverse perspectives from across the country. It means we can keep doing the kind of trusted journalism that puts people first. 

Will you become a monthly donor today and provide the critical, reliable support that PBS News relies on?  

DONATE MONTHLY

I'm so grateful to be part of this community with you. Thank you for trusting us with your time, and for supporting our work

With gratitude, 



Michael Rancilio,

EVP, General Manager of PBS News 

P.S. As a special thank you for your Giving Tuesday gift, I would like to send you direct access to Settle In, our new video podcast.
