NPR, both at WKMS, Murray State University in Murray, KY, and WSIU, Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, IL. Both depend on Federal dollars. We have very little in the way of "Arts" in our area on this side of the river, other than NPR news and programming. The local newspaper and media are controlled by one family and it may as well be Fox news owned by Rupert Murdoch as far as their "reporting" goes. Without NPR, we have nothing!

Don't cure the budget ills by removing arts money from it. And citizens should think about for whom they are voting -- really think about it and the consequences of how it will affect them personally.
