A MARTÍNEZ, HOST:

Good morning. I'm A Martínez. One of my favorite aimless activities is to scroll through real estate listings online that I can't afford. I can daydream. Anyways, last week there was something unique on Zillow. Listed for just over 42,000 bucks was Meade High School in Maryland. It was described as having a nice, spacious kitchen and dining room with a private basketball court and with 15 bathrooms, all with sewage issues. It wasn't really for sale. It was a senior prank. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

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.
