Watchdog group urges public to petition PBS on Moyers and Now replacements

Fairness & Accuracy in Media, a national news watchdog organization tracking bias and censorship, is encouraging the public to sign a petition urging PBS to replace the departing public affairs programs Bill Moyers Journal and PBS Now with "similarly thoughtful shows" that continue the tradition of "hard-hitting, independent programming that should thrive on public television." It adds: "What replaces those programs will be a test of its commitment to the very foundations of public broadcasting itself." Here's a link to the petition.
