That is really upsetting.

Here is the link to the show...via WUSF which does not appear to be carrying NOW tonight.

Here is the link to WEDU, another PBS station here in this area...it is not showing it either.

Sad reality now, I guess.

3. NOW is listed at 2:30 am on WEDU
Guess I will have to tape it. What a lousy time to show it! And they keep sending me mail to solicit money.

4. What areas are carrying the program? Anyone?
We have a maybe at 2:30 in the morning on one PBS station here, and not at all on the other.

Are most areas carrying NOW, or is this typical.

6. Thanks, trying to figure it out.
First they cut it down to half an hour, now they are putting it at 2:30 in the morning. One of our PBS not even carrying it at all.

And they keep soliciting me for donations. I called and griped one day. I presented the info about the CPB trying to control them. I said if you are going to let them control what you air, stop asking for money.

I got a call back from the manager of the station, was not home. Hubby answered. He never did call back.

8. You're welcome. I was hoping to see how many other areas..
Edited on Fri Jun-16-06 08:44 PM by madfloridian
carry at the usual 9:30 slot where it used to be here, or a reasonable hour...not 2:30 in the morning.

Some guy making bird calls and singing is on instead. Very urgent to pre-empt NOW.
