NPR, PBS
Move On is organizing a petition drive to stop the funding cut for NPR and PBS. Now, I'm never satisfied with public radio and public television -- they're just too far to the right and they cave in over everything: but they're the most centrist media we have, and they do a better job of reporting a wider view of our society than any other media. Silencing public radio and telvision, together with removing net neutrality (and all the sneaky little provisions: less public-access television, no more local control over cable, etc.etc.), is a move to silence the vast majority of Americans -- all the minorities of which the majority of the country is made, actually, leaving only one small minority with a voice -- those who already have disproportionate power and wealth and control of the other media.
Mostly it will be Tuesday when you read this. Sign the petition immediately, Tuesday's the deadline.
On another front: Escape Pod did not want Seven Little Men.
