Aden Ng has published a deep dive video about AltNPS (& AltYello), the dangers of their money grabs, & how your personal data may be at risk.
With background info from @drsturg.bsky.social book, We Are #AltGov, & current watchdog @altwatcher.bsky.social adding context, this is quite informative.

Keep resisting and holding their feet to the fire. Thank you @pbsnews.org and @schiff.senate.gov

First we have the election.

Then, we had funding removed. Grants, loans, regular appropriations.

Then we had the fork emails and the deffered resignations that took talented folks because they were afraid.

Then, they threatened to use Reduction in Force to threaten to fire us.

Thank you to the CPB for pushing to the very end and keeping their commitments to public media. #altgov #altfam

Duckworth: "Let's make it clear -- the President of the United States essentially just declared war on a major city in his own nation. This is not normal. This is not acceptable behavior."

If you didn’t know, now you do! Sunny days are headed our way!

American Public Health Association: “Legislators and officials at all levels of government who are interested in protecting their constituents should demand Kennedy’s removal.” That’s what I call leadership 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 www.apha.org/news-and-med...

Thread on CDC shooting👇...

Good morning.

Yesterday, after hours of hiding, trying not to make a sound, we stepped outside and saw massive bullet holes in our office windows.

Those weren’t random shots. That was a high-powered weapon no civilian should ever own.

Keep sciencing. We are living through a time when looking at a rock and wondering how old it is qualifies as an act of resistance.

The station would meet its goal. But you’re right, it will vary by station and population given the area footprint.

The amount of funding that has been lost for a current member station is $2.5 million. This would mean that the fundraising arm would have to raise a total of $3.6 million in order to keep the network going. Since this is a smaller station, if every person in the footprint gave around $1.50, then

Private donors, businesses, and foundations are what will ultimately help the most in our current climate. Starting with local level support, things can be saved.

To my knowledge, no other PBS programming is getting picked up by streaming services. Sesame Street was purchased by HBO some time ago, so it is an outlier in regard to programming that was originally produced for PBS and now has a home somewhere else.

Is a bevy of art that is legitimate and can be credited to an individual. Thank you and I hope I’ve answered you fully and to your satisfaction.

Former PBS employee and currently contracting with a local PBS station that has already lost a portion of its funding. My area of expertise is individual fundraising and I’ve been doing that for over five years.

I absolutely own posting that AI art and will remove it, because you’re right, there

Precisely. Monthly sustainers give stations the ability to plan ahead since they have a much better idea of what donations are coming in.

This website is a good resource to show the most endangered stations around the country. I love knowing who can be helped with this kind of immediacy. adoptastation.org Adopt A Station

I think it’s natural to feel hopeless right now. However, the children of this country shouldn’t have to grow up without role models that inspire and celebrate them for the wonderful, diverse humans they are. So, we continue to fight because they deserve better.

If you can spare $5/month, you can help. This not only gives you access to PBS passport, but it directly supports your local station.

Correct. These scars will last for a long time.

Donate to your local station and support other stations if you are able. If you know of private foundations, write to them and inform them of how essential PBS is and urge them to support financially.

As for larger stations, in past experience, they have helped smaller stations through sharing resources and collaborating on productions. We don’t know if that will translate to fundraising in this climate or not.
