_______________
GENERAL MANAGER’S REPORT
Ellis Bromberg
State Budget Cut
For many years, a grant to Milwaukee Public Television from the State, for instructional
television broadcasts and support, has been embedded in the budget of the Wisconsin
Educational Communications Board (ECB), the state agency that coordinates public
TV’s on-air and online services to Wisconsin teachers. In recent years, that state grant
totaled $211,900 annually. The ECB also maintains the infrastructure around the state
for Wisconsin Public Television (WPT) and Wisconsin Public Radio.
The original FY 15-17 State Budget proposal, released in February, called for a
significant cut to the ECB: a 34% cut to the agency’s General Purpose Revenue (GPR)
income, which totaled $2.7 million. In May, the legislature’s Joint Committee on
Finance (JCF) voted to restore $1.6 million in GPR funding to ECB for infrastructure,
but left in place a $1.1 million cut to its educational services, also known as the
Wisconsin Media Lab (WML), as well as the $211,900 cut to MPTV. MPTV has been a
partner in the WML, and we have used our grant to fund broadcasts, an online library of
educational resources, teacher workshops in southeastern Wisconsin, promotion, and
appearances at statewide educational conferences in support of the WML.
With the cut, the ECB has chosen not to fill three vacant WML positions, and has also
laid off three WML staff members. Two positions will remain within WML in order to
keep its website online, provide outreach for K-12 educators, and ensure than resources
that have been licensed or paid for will remain available for Wisconsin teachers and
students. Unless funding is restored in a subsequent budget, however, the WML will
produce and distribute no new content.
Similarly, with the loss of the annual state grant, MPTV has curtailed our support of the
WML.
We are grateful for the many viewers of MPTV and WPT who contacted their legislators
and the JCF to express their support for state funding of public broadcasting.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Spectrum Auction
On June 9, MATC Vice President and General Counsel Janice Falkenberg, MPTV
General Manager Ellis Bromberg, and MPTV’s engineering and administration
managers met with FCC staff during the commission’s “road show” visit to Milwaukee.
We attended a general session about the Spectrum Auction, and then met privately with
the FCC staff, discussing our specific circumstances, concerns, and options.
We have now received reports from our team of consultants, Greg Best Consulting, Inc.,
Gray Miller Persh LLP, and BIA/Kelsey – funded by a matching grant from the
Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) – to advise us of matters we should consider
and likely costs should we participate in the Spectrum Auction. We intend to present
those findings to the PTV Committee and MATC Board in September.
Last week, the FCC released its Auction Procedures Public Notice which finalizes a
number of details of the Auction. Our FCC counsel, Gray Miller Persh, will be providing
a summary this week.
In September or October, we expect to receive from the FCC firm offers for WMVS and
WMVT spectrum, under several options available to TV stations in the Auction. After
that notification, the licensee will have 60 days to inform the FCC whether or not we will
participate in the Auction under those conditions and at that price.
The first round of the Auction is now scheduled for March 29, 2016. There are expected
to be several – perhaps many – rounds, and each time the amount offered to the station
will decline. The licensee may continue to participate, or not, each time, but when a
station decides not to participate in a round, it will not be permitted to come back into
the Auction for a subsequent round.
Federal Funding
We are pleased that level funding for CPB was included in both the House and Senate’s
Labor-Health and Human Services-Education appropriations bills: $445 million for
CPB’s two-year advance in FY 2018.
The Senate bill also includes level funding of $25.7 million for public TV’s Ready To
Learn (RTL) program in FY 2016, but unfortunately, the House bill does not contain
funding for RTL. And neither the Senate nor House included additional funding of $40
million requested for public television’s interconnection system, although the Senate
does grant CPB the discretion to use some of its funding to pay for it.
The inclusion of level funding and the preservation of the two-year advance for CPB in
both bills, and level funding for RTL in the Senate bill, represents an extraordinary
endorsement of public television's work by the Republican majority as well as the
Democratic minority, especially in the context of legislation that significantly reduced
funding for many other programs.
Public TV will continue to advocate for the inclusion of a separate funding line item for
interconnection, as well as full funding for RTL, as the appropriations process moves
forward. Funding for interconnection remains especially challenging, as it requires new
spending when many other appropriations are being reduced.
The U.S. House and Senate have adjourned for August and are not scheduled to return
to Washington until September 7. Funding decisions for public broadcasting are not
expected to be finalized for FY 2016 until the fall.
SESAME STREET and HBO
Last week, Sesame Workshop, the producers of SESAME STREET, announced they had
reached a deal with the pay-cable service Home Box Office to bring the iconic series to
their HBO Family Channel.
HBO will be the primary funder for the series and get first play of the new episodes of
SESAME STREET for the next five years. HBO will have a nine month window, after
which the programs will be aired on MPTV and other PBS stations. While we are losing
exclusive telecasts of the series, the HBO deal will mean that more new episodes can be
produced every year, and that licensing fees PBS was paying to Sesame Workshop –
reportedly $4 million a year – can be invested in other children’s programming.
Two new science-oriented children’s series, NATURE CAT and READY JET GO! will
join the PBS Kids lineup this season.
Note that in a move unrelated to the HBO deal, SESAME STREET become a half-hour
(rather than a full hour) program beginning November 16. It currently airs at 9 am
weekdays on Channel 10, and will continue to do so.
Local Programming
New seasons of BLACK NOUVEAU, THE ARTS PAGE, and ¡ADELANTE! begin in
September. Among many stories the series are covering: BLACK NOUVEAU opens its
season with a segment about Milwaukee Repertory Theater’s production of
“Dreamgirls”; THE ARTS PAGE takes a look at local portrait painter Brian Kuether, the
Wisconsin Philharmonic’s annual “Music That Paints a Picture” family concert, and the
exhibit “Dressing Downton: Changing Fashion for Changing Times” at the Paine Art
Center and Gardens in Oshkosh; and ¡ADELANTE! features Milwaukee’s First Stage
world premiere of the play “Luchadora!”
4th STREET FORUM will be ending its run on MPTV this fall. Unfortunately, the weekly
public affairs series, in production for more than a decade, lost significant underwriting
this year and its producer, Deidre Martin, retired. The station is looking at ways that
some of its important elements – deep dives on significant local issues with
knowledgeable and diverse panels – can be incorporated in surviving MPTV programs.
In a budget-tightening move, two other MPTV series, HEALTHFUL INDIAN FLAVORS
WITH ALAMELU and TRACKS AHEAD, will take hiatuses from production this year,
but may resume production in FY 2017. Encores of previous seasons’ programs will
continue to be scheduled on our stations.
Premieres this fall and winter include:

NEXT AVENUE MOMENTS. 25 short programs, funded by a grant from the
Helen Daniels Bader Fund, that offer tips about healthful living and learning for
older adults in rural Wisconsin

METTLE AND HONOR: THE WAR MEMORIAL CENTER VETERANS STORY
PROJECT. Interviews with a diverse group of Wisconsin veterans from every

Produced by Mark Siegrist.


American female reporter to be killed in action. Produced by Maryann Lazarski.

And the station is pursuing discussions with historian John Gurda and producer
Claudia Looze to produce a follow-up chapter to the Emmy Award-winning THE
