Subject: NPR and PBS heads face sharp questioning about federal funding during House hearing
Dear Alabama journalism and communications professors:
The United States House of Representatives hearing reported on last night at NPR and PBS heads face sharp questioning about federal funding during House hearing | PBS News prompts me to ask you the following questions:
1. How do you rate the journalistic performances of PBS Newshour (with which I am familiar) and NPR?
2. In your teaching of students, do you cite PBS Newshour and NPR as exemplars of excellent TV and radio journalism that your students should learn from?
3. Do you think Alabama local TV stations should try to learn from and try to aspire to the journalistic quality of PBS Newshour and NPR?
4. Do you think worthwhile improvement of the journalistic performances of Alabama TV stations is a hopeless aspiration?
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Rob Shattuck

I have emailed Alabama journalism and communications professors asking how they rate the journalistic performances of PBS Newshour and NPR, with copies of my email going to Alabama TV stations. https://t.co/RZ5BmtJEMp#alpolitics https://t.co/QS6pq8yVr0

I'll email this PBS segment to AL TV stations & journalism/communications professors as what I think is excellent TV journalism. https://t.co/RZ5BmtJ6WR#alpolitics
