WYOU's PEG funding is going away in 2011, so we are working hard to become self-sufficient by then. Unfortunately, Mayor Dave has said that he wants to take away half of our 2010 PEG money. PEG monies are the funds allocated from Charter Cable subscriptions to cover the Public Access, Education, and Government TV channels. But unlike the education and city channels, WYOU does not use any tax payer money. Thus, we need the support of the community to stay alive.
Read the Wisconsin State Journal article about WYOU's quest to raise money and our upcoming on-air pledge drive.
