Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that 黑料吃瓜网 relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what鈥檚 been lost.
