KNIGHT COMMISSION SEEKS PUBLIC INPUT
PBS Engage is partnering with the Knight Commission to seek public input and offer an interactive experience at www.pbs.org/publicinput from Tuesday April 21 – Friday May 8, 2009. The site will feature a preliminary analysis of the Commission’s work, videos of the Commission’s public forums and meetings, blogs about the Commission’s work and a forum for citizens to express their thoughts and opinions.

The Knight Commission on the Information Needs of Communities in a Democracy and PBS Engage have teamed up to explore the issues around each citizen's information needs, and we would like to hear from you. See the Commission's draft introduction to its report and please share your answers to our questions [see link below.]

We need your input

In today’s media environment – with so many newspapers cutting back on editorial staff, and online media becoming more ever-present each day - do you have the information you need to accomplish your personal goals and to be an effective citizen?
