Hi, it's Brooke. I'm just going to take a second to remind you that you're listening to Public Radio,

and you are our public. We've always relied on, especially now as we scramble to make sense of the news,

and you, well, you are too. You all know that on the media is produced by WNYC, and the station's

fiscal year ends on June 30th. So right now, on the media is produced by WNYC, and the station's fiscal year ends on June 30th.

So right now, on the media is also planning for the year ahead, but with all that's happened

in the last 12 months, it would be nuts to think that we could predict what's going to happen

in the next.

We only know that we'll be here, and we're counting on you to be there for us,

as you always have. If we've helped you in the inescapably hard work of sorting through all

the shiny objects, could you contribute however much you can comfortably manage to help us

keep on, keep an on? Just mosey over to onemedia.org slash donate.

Thanks.
