Celebrating 50 Years: Support PBS News Hour

For 50 years, millions have turned to the PBS News nightly broadcast for the solid, reliable reporting that has made News Hour the #1 most objective and most credible news program on television. As of October 1, News Hour is no longer receiving federal funds for the first time in our history, and we are facing some very difficult decisions.

Your generous contribution of $250, $500, or whatever you can give, will provide the critical funds we need to plan for the months ahead and secure our future. And if you give your most generous gift now, your gift will be doubled, up to $50,000, thanks to a generous Friend of the News Hour.
