“Very timely — convenient format...We use
your stories a great deal
for our Montana news...
We appreciate your
service, keep it coming...
Seven newscasts per day
and I want audio in all of
them, BSC really helps.”
“BSC is excellent for our
organizing work.We don’t have
the time or money to get to all the
people that need to know what
we’re doing, and how these issues
effect their lives.When people hear
these stories on the radio, they
call us.That’s outreach, connecting
people with services, promoting our
organization and our work, and
public education — all from one
30 second radio story.”
Mary Caferro,
Working For Equity and
Economic Liberation
“A ten-year redistricting battle
in Montana created districts that
maximize Indian representation
and reshaped others in a way that
helped turn this red state blue in
the 2004 election.The Big Sky
Connection has no doubt played
a factor in Montanans being better
educated on this and other issues
of importance to us all. Kudos to
Public News Service and the folks
who make it happen!”
