As a PBS donor, I am dismayed that the national public television broadcast has been cancelled due to fear of the loss of Koch brothers funding. Although the Koch's donate much more money than I do, it is no reason to self censor. I, and I am sure that 10's of thousands of supporters of public television, will give more support to replace Koch money, and will stop funding public television if this self censorship is not overturned. Public television cannot be silenced by money. Money is not free speech!

Public television shouldn't be controlled by political groups, like the Koch brothers. What's aired on public television should be decided by the public, not politicians! I want to see the film Citizen Koch on PBS!

Public television has a responsibility to air this documentary without fear. Don't be another bought and paid for information source. Citizens need a information source that stands up and tells the truth. There are so few left. Public television may be the citizens last hope that this source still has the integrity to the public to tell the truth.

Because KRWG, as a public television station, funded by its subscribers is supposed to be a reliable, independent and unbiased source of information for all - a far cry from the major commercial networks who carry a brand of "world News" that simply is NOT about the world or unbiased, but mainly seems to cover US sports figures and some of the events. I personally find the network news to be unreliable and not really informative on the major issues that affect us daily.

"Citizen Koch" was pulled from national public tv broadcast because of fear of upsetting Davis Koch who has been a major donor to public television. PBS should answer to viewers like me not to billionaires like the Koch brothers- and I want to see this important documentary. Will you join the call for a national broadcast of "Citizen Koch on Rocky Mountain PBS?

We want to learn from GOP takeover in the 2010 election year and fight back for a Democratic takeover in 2014.

PBS should air the truth.

The Brachs factory is facing demolition the 32 acres the land sits on should be used for a new Austin community school and performing arts center. The city is offering $10.6 million in TIF money to demolish it but that very money can help fund the Root2Fruit development campus which includes a new area school and a performing arts center both are critically needed in the community.

The foreclosure crisis threatens our economy, society and families from achieving the American Dream. Finally, someone found a no-cost way to turn your name and address into a powerful weapon against the greedy banks. Unlike other petitions, this one is not a means to an end requiring some politician's approval to bring about change. Our participation (power of the people) creates the desired change; the BLERS Mortgage.

Just want to make sure this feature works properly

Our county-owned nursing home, Falling Spring Nursing and Rehabilitative Center, provides end-of-life and restorative care for our citizens who need care and who have exhausted all of their resources. We must fight this because: *Our home receives the highest marks for the excellent care given to its residents & their families by professional, caring staff. *There has been no suggestion or evidence of mismanagement of the home. *Most of the residents were not accepted at privately owned facilities. *It accepts all Franklin County citizens regardless of their ability to pay. *It does not pose an unreasonable burden on our county budget. *County Commissioners have given no reason for the sale.
