TV Junkie: Summer Doldrums Have Begun and It's Not Even Summer

Our June member drive is live: protect this resource!
Right now, we need your help during our short June member drive to keep the local news you read here every day going. This has been a challenging year, but with your help, we can get one step closer to closing our budget gap. Today, put a dollar value on the trustworthy reporting you rely on all year long. We can't hold those in power accountable and uplift voices from the community without your partnership.

A Word or 34:
These are the doldrums dear friends. Not much to offer other than a couple mediocre talent competitions and a teeny-bopper premiere on the CW. Really, this is a chance to catch up on your reading.

Tonight - Wednesday - May 30, 2007
