Twenty years ago today, on December 15, 2000, RFD-TV hit the airwaves for the very first time. Founder Patrick Gottsch stated two decades ago, “I feel confident that there is an audience in America for rural programming that is being ignored by urban broadcasters” – a conviction that is certainly as true today as it ever was. We owe everything we have managed to achieve within the past 20 years to our audience – the greatest and most loyal in the world! Thank you for watching, and thank you for furthering our goal of connecting city and country!
