Watched Bill Moyers tonight on PBS, main topic was, yep, about 
broadcasting.  Very interesting.  It was no surprise that big business is 
the reason for so many undesirable changes in many areas.  But sitting here, 
I do not see just how entrenched they are.  A single company that can and 
does own many tv stations, even more radio stations, newspapers, Internet 
dot coms, cable and service providers, etc.

    Yet it was a young guy in Mississippi I think, whose home brewed radio 
station survived Katrina, and kept the local community up to speed on the 
state of affairs.  He was only one of 4 other stations out of 40 that stayed 
up.  And was still the only one still operating 9 months later.  Think he 
was operating a 500 watt FM station and with some help after the storm, went 
to 2000 watts to reach more lcoals.

    Vewry interesting program.
