This may be duplication, but it's worth repeating.

American Public Television (APT) is trying to distribute to over 300
public television stations a weekly agriculture series funded in large
part by Monsanto and the American Farm Bureau Federation. America's
Heartland is 20 half-hour episodes that claim to help raise awareness of
the significant contribution American agriculture makes to the quality of
life here and abroad.
In violation of its own standards for corporatesponsorship, APT is
promoting a program about a product funded by the very
interests that market that product. This is Big Agribusiness producing its
own propaganda to be broadcast over public airwaves funded in part through
taxpayer dollars.
Please sign this online petition asking APT executives to present the full
story about industrial agriculture's impact on rural communities. It will
then be delivered in a letter to APT executives and the producers of the
series.
Please forward this on your lists.
