Will protecting ecosystems really come down to whether environmentalists can raise enough money to buy them outright? Is the future of public lands, beloved and supported by great majorities of Americans, truly that precarious? nytimes.com/2025/07/21/opi… @MargaretRenkl

OMG!!!! Watch the late night family come to support @StephenAtHome Colbert ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

PBS News is not going anywhere. We will continue our work without fear or favor, as we have for nearly five decades on the air. We are profoundly grateful to Viewers Like You for your loyalty and unwavering support.

For more than 50 years, Sesame Workshop has been proud to partner with PBS to bring learning and joy to children across America. Generations of children have benefitted from the public investment that has enabled PBS to do such important work, and the need remains. PBS, we’re so…

Happy birthday to the legendary Vince Guaraldi, born on this day in 1928! He’s best known for composing music for animated television adaptations of the Peanuts comic strip. His compositions for this series included their signature melody "Linus and Lucy" and the holiday…

Thank you for the good thoughts for PBS and esp. @NewsHour. It means the world. We're as determined to ever. Ways to support: 1. EASY one - let's build. Folo me - @LisaDNews. Folo @NewsHour RT this.

Politicians prioritize election wins over constituents' needs, skewing policy towards extremes instead of common solutions. So, meet the people where they are... on their phones. Bradley Tusk explains how @MobileVoting could save our broken democracy. ted.com/talks/bradley_…

PBS is the “Declaration of Independence applied to the communications world.” - @KenBurns The stakes are high. Call your elected officials. Tell them to fund public broadcasting, @PBS and @NPR.

“Every time I go to Nashville, I just love the music community there, and I love the musicians there." You can add Tal Wilkenfeld’s name to the list of world-class musicians who now call Nashville home. nashvillescene.com/music/features… @NashvilleScene @DarylSanders615 @talwilkenfeld

Attacking and defunding the arts means silencing voices and erasing stories. It means suppressing our expression, our truth, and our power. Protect art. A silenced society can't sustain a democracy. Art is power.
