A budget hearing marked a pivotal moment in the campaign to save Prince George's Community Television, as community members passionately advocated for the station's funding. CTV, a nonprofit media entity since 1989, has provided essential local programming, including news and educational opportunities. However, proposed budget cuts threaten its existence, reducing funding drastically from $924,600 to just $231,200. Stakeholders stress that the station serves not only the youth but also the entire community, making it vital to local culture and information.
"I beg of you all, please save CTV. They're not only for the youth, they're for everybody."
"CTV as we know it, as we've known it over the years, would've been pretty much closed down."
