>> HI.
I'M JAMES STEINBACH.
I'M A VOLUNTEER
HER E
AT PBS WISCONSIN.
WE'RE TAKING
JUST A REAL QUICK
BREAK FROM THE "NEWSHOUR."
AND THE THING I
LOVE ABOUT
THE "NEWSHOUR,"
IT'S HARD TO
SAY YOU
LOVE A NEW
S SHOW BECAUSE
THE CONTENT
IS SO
DIFFICULT NOW
, BUT
IS THAT
IT'S ALL
ABOUT INTEGRITY
AND IT'S
ALL ABOUT
DIGNITY REALLY.
THE "NEWSHOUR"
RESPECTS YOU,
RESPECTS US
AS AN
AUDIENCE. IT
REALLY SAYS
EVERY NIGHT THIS
IS WORTH WATCHING NOT
BECAUSE WE'RE GOING
TO GIVE
YOU ALL
THESE FACTS,
NECESSARILY, BUT BECAUSE
WE'RE GOING
TO GIVE
YOU BACKGROUND,
CONTEXT, ANALYSIS.
WE'RE GOING
TO GIVE
YOU MEANING
AND VALUE. AND
IF YOU
STOP FOR A
SECOND AND
THINK ABOUT THAT, HOW
OFTEN DO
YOU GET THAT
FROM YOU
R T V
SET? IT
DOESN'T HAPPEN
THAT OFTEN.
A LOT
OF GREAT
THINGS YOU
GET ABOUT
WATCHING MANY
SHOWS, BUT
THE ONE THING
YOU GET OUT
OF WATCHING
THE "NEWSHOUR"
IS A DEEPER
UNDERSTANDING OF THE WORLD, YOUR
PART IN
IT AND
AN ACT
ABILITY
TO THINK
THROUGH ISSUES
THAT NEED
SOME KIND
OF BACKGROUND.
SO IT'S
WORTH INVESTING
IN BY
CALLING 1-800-236-3636. >> HI.

THE "NEWSHOUR" WAS BEGINNING TO
BE INVENTED I
WAS LUCKY
ENOUGH AS A
YOUNG PRODUCER TO
BE A FLY ON
THE WALL
IN THE
MEETING TALKING
ABOUT WHAT THEY
WERE GOING TO DO.
THE EMPHASIS
WAS ON
INTEGRITY AND TRUST
IN THE
AUDIENCE, THAT
IF A PROGRAM WAS
DONE THAT
REALLY GAVE
PEOPLE CONTEXT
AND BACKGROUND
AND INSIGHT,
THAT THAT WAS SOMETHING
THAT AN
AUDIENCE WOULD WANT.
THEY DIDN'T
JUST WANT
THE HEADLINES.

PRETTY YOUNG AND
I THOUGHT THIS
IS SOMETHING I NEED
TO REMEMBER
ALL MY
LIFE. AND
I HOPE I HAVE.

GREILING, DIRECTOR OF

FREE INTO
YOUR LIVING
ROOM TONIGHT?
WELL, FOR
THOSE OF
YOU WHO HAVE
BEEN WAITING FOR
THIS SEASON,
YOU CAN
PROBABLY GUESS
IT'S NOT
EASY. IT'S
ALSO NOT
CHEAP. OUR
DIRECTOR OF PROGRAMMING GOE
S OUT
AND ACQUIRES
PROGRAMS LIKE DOC
MARTIN. THEY ARE
PART !
THEY
AREN'T PART
OF OUR
PBS MEMBERSHIP.
HE WORKS HARD
TO FIND
THOSE PROGRAMS,
BRING THEM HERE,
WORKS SOME DEALS TO
GET THEM
HERE FOR
YOU. THE BEST WAY
YOU CAN
HELP THAT,
HELP YOURSELF
ENJOY PROGRAMS LIKE
THAT, IS
TO BECOME A
SUSTAINER. BECOMING A
SUSTAINER JUST
MEANS YOU'RE
MAKING A MONTHLY,
AUTOMATIC PAYMENT
FROM YOUR
CREDIT CARD OR

COUNT ON

QR CODE
IF YOU
PREFER. 1-800-236-3636.>> SO
WE'RE IN
THE MIDDLE,
THE MIDST OF
OUR YEAR
ENDZ MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
AND THIS IS AN
IMPORTANT TIME FOR
US BECAUSE
THIS CAN
REALLY HELP
US WITH
OUR FINANCIAL
END-OF-YEAR. THIS
IS EXPENSIVE.
THERE'S NO OTHER
WAY TO
PUT IT.
TV IS
NOT CHEAP.
AND
THE REASON
WE'RE ABLE
TO DO
THIS, CERTAINLY
WE DO
GET FUNDS
FROM THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT,
BUT THAT'S A
RELATIVELY SMALL AMOUNT.
I THINK
IT'S ONLY
10%, SOMETHING
LIKE THAT. WE
GET SUPPORT
FROM THE
STATE.
T THE
MOST IMPORTANT
SUPPORT WE
GET IS
FROM VIEWERS,
FROM YOU, FROM
ME, ALL
OF US
TOGETHER SUPPORTING PBS WISCONSIN.
