Auf Wiedersehen Bill Moyers and NOW

PBS is axing both Bill Moyers Journal and NOW, two of their flagship public affairs programs. Regardless of the political bent of these shows, they often looked at issues that get little to no play in the rest of the media. I will especially miss Moyers as he brought on people who were fascinating to listen to. I mean, where else would you find an hour devoted to discussing Thomas Paine featuring UW Green Bay prof Harvey Kaye?
