Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. When broadcasting live news, you must be prepared for anything.

INSKEEP: A golden retriever snatched the microphone from a journalist in Moscow. Everybody's news reflexes worked. The reporter chased down the dog, the cameraperson followed the action, and the dog later returned for another live shot, as the reporter gave it a scratch between the ears. 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.
