WOSU: Air 'Citizen Koch'

It is ridiculous that a documentary about a major donor was not aired, likely due to the fact that the subject of the documentary is also a major donor. This undermines the credibility of public media entirely. Shows and documentaries should air on their merits and use to the public alone. By allowing interference with programming by a donor WOSU and PBS are deviating from their purpose and mission statement- to produce and air material that serves the public and society.

Why is this important?
