3. Does this include NPR?
Then I have to say, "Hell yes" Otherwise my only other option where I live is the Clear Channel Limbaugh/O'Rielly/Hannity dribble

6. We Need 2 of Them
Seriously, 2 independent Public Broadcasting orginizaitons (and 3 would be even better). Let them vie with each other for the most important coverage.

Bring back Moyers
