RENEE MONTAGNE, HOST:

Good morning, I'm Renee Montagne. As the Yankees fight to keep their season alive, one fan fought to keep his future alive. After dropping to his knee for a very special marriage proposal at Yankee Stadium, he dropped the ring. But after an embarrassing scramble on camera, he got the ring and got a yes. A different couple in New York's Central Park got lucky on their wedding day. Tom Hanks happened to jog by, stopped for a selfie and ended up in their wedding photos. It's MORNING EDITION.

Federal funding is gone.

Congress has eliminated all funding for public media.

That means $2.1 million per year that Connecticut Public relied on to deliver you news, information, and entertainment programs you enjoyed is gone.

The future of public media is in your hands.

All donations are appreciated, but we ask in this moment you consider starting a monthly gift as a Sustainer to help replace what’s been lost.
