This is YOUR television station! If we want to continue to have the ability to have a television station that the public can program, we need to support WYOU! Here’s a recycled action alert:
WYOU, Madison’s Citizen Access channel, currently is in the middle of a fund drive, featuring a lot of live, local, prime-time programming.
This week is a good time to see the diversity and originality of WYOU’s programming.
WYOU presents more original, local programming each month than any of the local commercial television channels (probably more than all of those channels combined).
WYOU also provides training to the general public in filming, editing and studio production. We do outreach to youth groups and media support for area non-profits.
WYOU does this with a staff of 3 and a miniscule annual budget.
As you know, because of recent changes in the state cable franchise law, over 80% of WYOU’s funding soon will disappear.
Please take a look for future reference and if you are so inclined, now is a good time to help.
Please consider donating by visiting the WYOU web site www.wyou.org
or by calling 258-9644Please consider alerting your friends and contacts of the need to support WYOU.
