#BillMoyers Dead: Elder Statesman of #PBS #Journalists Was 91
Bill #Moyers , who carried an unblemished air of moral conviction throughout a 43-year career as an unapologetically liberal #journalist, mostly for PBS, died Thursday in Manhattan. He was 91.
Like his protege #CharlieRose, Moyers was characterized by an insatiable and wide-ranging intellectual curiosity, but he was deeply concerned not only with how things are but how they should be.

Democrats and Republicans on the Senate Appropriations Committee pushed back against the Trump administration's bid to kill $9 billion in federal funding that Congress already has approved for public broadcasting and international aid programs.
I’m seriously alarmed by Trump’s push to cut funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which puts NPR and PBS in real danger. Public broadcasting isn’t just nice to have; it’s a necessity for reliable news, education, and emergency information. Losing this vital resource would be a huge blow to our communities and democracy.

Carl Sagan's #Cosmos is my fave series of all-time. Pretty sure I've seen the whole thing, from start to finish, about 30 or 40 times, maybe more. And the soundtrack is pretty fab, too. It's "must-see TV" -- still! #Television #PBS #Science #Space #History https://mastodon.social/@osman@hachyderm.io/114741087389214516

What to know about the 3 Iranian nuclear sites that were hit by U.S. strikes
President Donald Trump said the strikes, which he described as “very successful,” had hit the Natanz, Fordo and Isfahan sites, with Fordo being the primary target. The Atomic Energy Organization of Iran confirmed there were attacks early Sunday at all three nuclear sites.Israel launched a surprise barrage of attacks on sites in Iran on June 13, which Israeli officials said was necessary to head off what they claimed was an imminent threat that Iran would build nuclear bombs.Iran, which has long insisted its nuclear program is peaceful, has retaliated with a series of missile and drone strikes in Israel, while Israel has continued to strike sites in Iran.The U.S. and Iran had been in talks that could have resulted in the U.S. lifting some of its crushing economic sanctions on Iran in exchange for Tehran drastically limiting or ending its enrichment of uranium. Until Saturday, Washington had helped shoot down Iranian strikes on Israel but had not launched direct attacks on Iran.Intentional attacks on nuclear sites are atrocities committed against both humanity and the environment, atrocities against not only the present, but the far future.

Sign the Petition to the #Senate: #Trump’s #attacks on #PBS and #NPR are attempts to silence independent media. We must protect #free, fact-based #journalism and ensure access to trusted programming for all Americans. https://click.actionnetwork.org/ss/c/u001.qUXRBnqZ7T8nxbpAcIVwocMWCl0Z_ZtCTHi4CaOp3PMBJuEuR5115YSQyWqSmciowraIs7zmwW0oNCnv1xQYCCChcdSUZm_aMPCZPh70rsEcfM1jbzsgvq8nDGouE8_13znryp1lwcNEFLcF5jGE_oi4uN9dPaKPUBfA_YZL2EPtRpiHRynaoH8S-Myds0XJji2QpDfGeLT3BzszgPC9ocDFolXVJaomEJfdXLJPMEL388OCXASmvS0tZtoFiuprtQG8iZhXz_5sWLaNkujQKu9AYWnnuNWUrMAZDhwl_wria51qih76fDfDwlHusGU1XAo4jd8hmhfZCqOUoUlPmIKwpbcy_OdpDnBrxZ78YK-byngkj4sbewRPz3c295e222eYodGcdczkOPCbrGbP3THs9CdHY8HIMbJAOnC2nJ7XD8JAYiboxgNT9mBsFB5VIF-LcycSi-ossO01JW_LEzMe87VERVAfD8WW1P6u1kgTca-U83QABztmKW6WKGnK8IlzAVN_puxP9qnuOO79a7amufgjGNy6MpvEM1rHaoDl4QMCvn9y_Q1tXTGyfNZwYdgwnrUv5_ftV9ILNSd5HQUMh5Dy5FkIHKLlK8dwJZPyupVJKpCQ5NXYrtoB5wydfDio1AyAnC72Jq6qZRDkMYzFujPa9Lljh9-KRSXgsdJrbpsRN23l6bEAn6cp9ZaXCezhQdFzv8hblxdooCEF6DX0cNSREWH1PFEyt-mA-28/4hj/7SM1h4g0Qqmaob_4SrSZ6Q/h1/h001.Y0W4E9me4w1H5rT1o7knuLLz5BF9hFAJLp-Ug_IrW7s

This is a very powerful — and at times emotional speech — well worth watching.

Your public media is still under attack. The administration wants to cut funds to the likes of PBS, NPR, emergency alerts, etc...
Go to protectmypublicmedia.org to see what you can do to help save it. #publicmedia #npr #pbs #kexp
Watching a new video from PBS on TRex and Triceratops (on YouTube - I won't be able to watch the real thing when it comes out on a paid service), but their CGI *still* doesn't show them with feathers.
Isn't that a "solved" question now? Or is it still speculation? (yes, it's all speculation until we see one in person, but I thought the science was more supportive of "has" than "doesn't has")
Is that wrong?
"NPR and PBS are targeted here today precisely because they are so good at delivering the truth," Texas Democratic Rep. Lloyd Doggett said. He pointed to Trump's social media attacks on the outlets, saying, "Trump doesn't want a country of engaged, informed Americans. He prefers those who salute on command."
