CPB and PBS agreed to jointly commission a new Friday night series to pair with Now. The show, still in development, is intended to balance Moyers' views, according to two producers who spoke with PBS execs about the concept.

Everytime there is a controversy, Public Broadcasting promises to do something "in the future" and they promise to stop doing it. It's like Lucy promising Charlie Brown she won't pull the football away.

It may be impossible to satisfy every viewer, however, since fairness and objectivity are, to some extent, in the eye of the beholder.

In other words, objectivity is subjective.

(Moyers) Powerful vested interests, of course, don't like strong, credible, fact-based truth telling, and they turn to their cohorts in Congress to protest.

That's right, Moyers. It's the reason you and the rest of the Rats whine about talk radio. What an arrogant piece of clinton!

Public television is still around? I seem to get everything with my dish, but no PBS channels. Not that I miss it, mind you, because any good programming has been picked up by HGTV/TLC/History/BBC/NOGIN/etc etc.

If they want me to watch, maybe they should replace Moyers "now" with R Lee Emery
