Comments on: South Dakota (Conservative) Public Broadcasting http://prairieprogressive.com/2005/02/14/south-dakota-conservative-public-broadcasting/ thoughts while vastly outnumbered on the northern great plains Fri, 21 Nov 2008 10:02:41 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Douglas http://prairieprogressive.com/2005/02/14/south-dakota-conservative-public-broadcasting/#comment-79 Douglas Mon, 14 Feb 2005 23:36:00 +0000 http://prairieprogressive.com/?p=340#comment-79 SD Pub TV often preceeds science shows that cover anything but church organ design with a disclaimer warning viewers they may be offended. I can't remember if they warned about the dangers of watching programs on medieval philosophers who did not find the earth to be the center of the universe. I am still curious about why they are transferring ownership from one Board to another in an application to the FCC. I don't think about half of South Dakota will be happy if this is a way to move bandwidth from the citizens to Clear Channel or some other wingnut-loon media system. The press release from SD Pub Broadcasting was filled with double talk blather that was meaningless in the context of blanking out a program or two. One good thing about their censorship, it will probably mean the SD kid's at the state music events will get more TV face time.
