PBS, defunded by Trump, says 'we're still here' with big new Ken Burns documentary [View all]
Sunday’s premiere of Ken Burns’ new PBS series “The American Revolution” doubles as an attention-grabbing statement, months after President Donald Trump succeeded in stripping away all federal funding for public broadcasting in the US.
The message is clear: “We are still here.”
The documentary, which airs over six consecutive nights, is “a really big moment” for PBS, said Paula Kerger, the organization’s CEO.
There has been some marketplace confusion as a result of Trump’s campaign to defund public media.
