Senate vote restores funds for Kansas public TV expansion
The Kansas Senate approved 18-12 restoring 1.2 million dollars to an appropriations bill for expanding public television. Debate centered on whether the Public Television Board should originate local programming with three new stations in Hays Garden City and Chanute rather than satellite links to existing stations. Critics warned of rising future costs and questioned last year’s legislative intent while supporters argued the program warranted expansion.
