Subject: PBS News Weekend - RIP
I just heard that the PBS News Weekend show is going away. It was 30 minutes of news on Sat and Sun.

This is due to the gov't funding cuts.

I have to ask: isn't there some multimillionaire philanthropist out there who loves PBS and could easily foot the bill in entirety for several years? How much could it cost? A few million a year? I'm looking at you Bill Gates and Michael Bloomberg.
