And we do want to bring to your attention the fact that the Chicago Defender does run the CHICAGO TV 19 program schedule, a real public service. We hope that the other dailies will soon follow suit, and, of course, we appreciate anything the Reader can do to draw attention to our unique program services on cable channels 19, 21, 27, 42, and–later this year, 36.

Staff, board and volunteers have all worked prodigiously to develop this unique communications resource for the citizens of Chicago in ways which are consistent with our mission, attractive and useful to cable viewers and supportive of the future for local public access. We are grateful for these efforts and the support of the Chicago Cable Commission, Group W Cable of Chicago and Chicago Cable TV
