Attention Viewers!

Tune in to a very special Rural America Live with Patrick Gottsch this coming Monday night at 8 PM Eastern, 7 Central time. Patrick will be updating everyone on our one and only, last chance to get protection for rural programing by attaching our bill to the next stimulus package. The major urban media companies are lobbying hard against passage of this bill. Tune in to get the facts and see how you can help get our bill across the finish line.

As always, Patrick will be taking your questions live on the air. Join us and let’s make sure that rural programing is protected. We are the only ones who can make sure that there is not a wall built between urban and rural America!
