I Stand with Big Bird

Dear Jason, We don't oppose or endorse any candidates for public office. But we do fight for public media — and we have for almost a decade. During last night's presidential debate, public media — and its convenient symbol, Big Bird — were attacked once again.  Facebook and Twitter lit up with people's outrage. Here's how you can add your voice: Stand with Big Bird. Click here to get your FREE Defend Public Media sticker. This isn’t just about Big Bird. It’s about quality journalism, arts programming, educational shows — all that we’ve come to expect from PBS. And it isn’t about one party or the other. The majority of Americans, across the political spectrum, support federal funding for PBS.  Attacks on public broadcasting have been going on for years. No matter who's in office, we need to make sure that public media funding is protected for good.  We’re in this for the long haul. Get your FREE Defend Public Media sticker and show the world you stand with Big Bird. Thanks, Josh Stearns and the rest of the Free Press Action Fund team P.S. We've been inspired by the creative responses on Facebook, Twitter and elsewhere as people show their love for NPR and PBS.
