*******************************************************************
Like most people, I am annoyed by the ads interrupting programs on SBS-TV. SBS is a public broadcaster, paid for by our taxes and was intended to be commercial free, like the ABC.
Save Our SBS is a group of ordinary people who want SBS to be fully funded by government, as it once was, so it is not reliant on ads. Your support is needed. I urge you to look at the web site below and tell all your friends to do so too.
www.SaveOurSBS.org and please click on the link there to sign the petition about advertisements on SBS and funding for our multicultural public broadcaster.
Also, anyone can become a ‘blogger’ and write material for the web site as well about SBS and the direction that public broadcasting is heading in. Details are on the web site at: www.SaveOurSBS.org which is a not for profit, volunteer, community organisation that is not aligned with any political party or group. Don’t forget to sign the petition.
Copy, paste and send a copy of the relevant paragraphs of this to as many people as you know.
*******************************************************************
