Q&A
Silver responding to Larry Grossman’s skepticism – other countries have made Internet access accessible. We just need to copy other successful political movements to make this happen.
I cannot help but agree with with Larry Grossman. Ellen Goodman believes that the case just has to be made. But the reality is that the massive federal deficits will handcuff policymaking for years to come. Goodman wants people to focus on how public broadcasting impacts their lives? How can we do that?
Silver admits that it could take 30 years before we see a real renaissance in public funding for public broadcasting. But that is dependent on constant advocacy and vigilance – and it should not deter us from making the effort.
