It's amazing to me that it's June 16th already. I've been so crazy busy with stuff, that I can't remember it all! And, there's more to come with weekend's booked until the end of July.
The big switch to digital television has happened as well. One thing is clear, they're still working it all out. I did loose the stations I expected I would, but gained one. Then, last night, lost it. So, I "rescanned," and to my surprise, found I am picking up CBS (kind of). It's not a solid "signal" but not many of them are with the exception of PBS — which is really what matters anyway.
Even with all the graduation parties, festivals, out of town guests, etc., I have made sure I catch my favorite Friday night PBS programs — even if I have to watch on-line. NOW and Bill Moyers Journal are the BEST journalism on television and have added to my understanding many of the complex issues the United States is dealing with right now.
I'm a huge fan — this is what journalism looks like, and one of the reasons I'm such a huge media reform advocate. If you've never watched, NOW or Moyers, I recommend a visit to their websites where you can watch past shows on-line, or read the transcripts. An informed citizenry beings there.
