STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. A container ship sailing from Taiwan to New York hit a storm. Sixty containers fell overboard, including two soon-to-be released cookbooks - yet another supply chain delay. The publication of both books have been delayed now by several months. Author Melissa Clark tried to keep up a sense of humor. On Instagram, she wrote, I like to think that if the books are at the bottom of the ocean, they're at least teaching whole schools of fish some very tasty recipes. 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.
