Shame on you, Johnson, Rounds, and Thune. Your weak refusal to stand up to Trump (again) hurts South Dakotans. You are complicit in the dismantling of democracy for the sake of pleasing an egomaniac who knows that securing his dictatorship requires silencing any media he does not control.

These are SD Stories and SD Voices that have been reduced or attempting to be "eliminated". I'm so proud of SDPB and all the important information that they provide. Please, if you are not a donor already, reach out to them. We are in great risk of news and information becoming more and more skewed. We need real conversations such as those that Lori Walsh provides on In the Moment.

You can thank Senators Rounds and Thune and Rep. Johnson for this!

So, what lessons can be learned from this?

Here's one: Don't be so political.

Here's another: Stick to your core mission.

Here's another: Play with fire and you will get burned.

What examples do you have of SD Public Broadcasting being so political? I was recently on In The Moment talking about food waste and food recovery on In The Moment. These are stories that need to be told. What fire did they play with? Please can you give us some examples?
