I will not send our state's PBS affiliate network any donations until they fix their numerous problems with their stations. The biggest problems are underpowered VHF channels that are too unreliable to watch and lack of any clue on how to display programming in the proper aspect ratio.

Or you end up with Fox or MSNBC, with cheerleaders keeping things simple to say hurray for our side. The other side are idiots and this one liner explains why they are idiots. That is a waste of bandwidth.

Exactly Trip, it's supposed to be informative. Thank goodness for The News Hour.

Back in the late 1980's, I was getting WVIA 44 from Scranton and they were playing my favorite show regularly. I sent them $25 when they were doing a fund raiser and it was in support of "Lost in Space".

Next month they cancelled it. I never sent any $$ to PBS again.
