Download - PBS39 March-April Matters
MARCH 2013
Dear Friends,
A mentor of mine once said, “never
miss an opportunity to say thank you,”
and I try to live by that maxim. To that
end – let me express my deepest ap-
preciation for your continued support
of YOUR public media station –
WLVT/PBS39. Your investment in this
station is invaluable and necessary to
ensure we remain the vibrant, locally
connected and relevant station we are
right now.
As your public media station contin-
ues to grow and expand, you may have
noticed a change in our evening pro-
gramming. Last July we changed our
format to create a different viewing ex-
perience for the public media con-
sumers in our broadcast area. Rather
than having two channels showing
identical programming at the same
time, we now have a lineup that is
100% different from the other public
media station in our market. This
change allowed us to bring our viewers
new shows such as Doc Martin, Death
in Paradise and Sherlock Holmes – as
well as show PBS favorites like Master-
piece Theatre and NOVA at a different
time. Our market research has shown a
large increase in the viewership of our
programs since the changeover – but I
am most interested in what our mem-
bers think, so please share your
thoughts and opinions with our Mem-
bership Team at 610-984-8100.
Together We Can Be more – and in
doing so become even more important
for our community. Thank you for all
you do for PBS39!
Best regards,
Timothy S. Fallon
CEO, PBS39
