I guess this is real. I do not feel like researching it and I do not want to take the chance, though I doubt these things make a difference.

Dear Friends,
On NPR's Morning Edition last week, Nina Tottenberg
said that if the Supreme Court supports Congress, it
is in effect the end of the National Public Radio
(NPR), National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the
Public Broadcasting System (PBS).
PBS, NPR and the arts are facing major cutbacks in
funding. In spite of the efforts of each station to
reduce spending costs and streamline their services,
some government officials believe that the funding
currently going to these programs is too large a
portion of funding for something which is seen as not
worthwhile.
The only way that our representatives can be aware of
the base of support for PBS and funding for these
types of programs is by making our voices heard.
Please add your name to this list and forward it to
Friends who believe in what this stands for. This list
will be forwarded to the President and the Vice
President of the United States.
This petition is being passed around the Internet.
Please add your name to it so that funding can be
maintained for NPR, PBS, & the NEA.
HOW TO SIGN & FORWARD: IT'S EASY: Please keep this
petition rolling. Do not reply to me. Please sign and
forward to others to sign. If you prefer not to sign,
please send to the E-mail address indicated below.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT DUPLICATES. This is being forwarded
to several people at once to add their names to the
petition. It won't matter if many people receive the
same list as the names are being managed. This is for
anyone who thinks NPR/PBS is a worthwhile expenditure
of $1.12/year of their taxes, a petition follows.
If you sign, please forward on to others.. If not,
please don't stop it. Send it to the Email address
listed here:
[email protected] OR
[email protected]
If you happen to be the 150th, 200th, 250th, etc.,
signer of this petition, please forward a copy to:
[email protected]
This way we can keep track of the lists and organize
them. Forward this to everyone you know, and help us
to keep these programs alive.
Thank you!
NOTE: It is preferable that you SELECT (highlight) the
entirety of this letter and then COPY it into a new
outgoing message, rather than simply forwarding it. In
your new outgoing message, add your name to the bottom
of the list, then send it on.
Start with 1174.
