From the PresidentGuide to All Things ’GBHYes, our August program guide is slimmer. These are challenging times andWGBH is cutting costs as we close the fiscal year (with your help!). We are alsosaving trees with this temporary measure. But you’ll still find the essential TVand radio program information you count on in these pages.Even as we trim the summer guide’s size, we’re expanding our programresources—on wgbh.org. There you’ll find not only up-to-the-minute TVand radio schedules, but also a rich menu of video previews.If you’re a fan of Greater Boston’s popular Beat the Press program on Fridaynights, you won’t want to miss their new website (beatthepress.org).Now you can easily shareBeat the Press videos withyour friends, comment onsegments and blog entries,and even suggest topicsfor upcoming shows.We’re also expandingour online radio services.WGBH recently launchedA Celtic Sojourn Radio, withnative Irishman and hostBrian O’Donovan exploringtraditional and contemporary music from around the Celtic world. The onlinestream offers a continuous set of programs recently broadcast on 89.7, givingyou 24/7 access to all things Celtic.Our latest online feature may even help you decide what to watch,with Ron Bachman, director of WGBH programming, as your guide (seewgbh.org/webcasts). A 25-year WGBH veteran who used to write theintroductions for Mystery! host Diana Rigg, Ron brings insight and humorto his “best of what’s on” rundown. “I see my monthly webcast as a way totake viewers behind the scenes,” he says,“and to showcase some quirkierpieces that remind people of our full range of TV programs.”So in addition to thumbing through our August guide, I hope you’ll visitwgbh.org to get the full picture of all the great programs your generousannual support makes possible this month, and every month.Jon AbbottStay tuned for a fabulous fall!September:• Ken Burns’s The National Parks (6-part series)• Classical Music MonthOctober:• Latin Music USA (4-part series)• American Experience: The 1930s (5-part series)Where to Tune InTVDigital broadcastComcastFiOSRCN2 2.2 2 2 2 2 2 28444 44.1 16 44 14 804 21 n/aWGBH World 44.2 209 473 94 807 222 n/aWGBH Create 44.3 237 474 95 805 223 n/a’GBH Kids 44.4 217 472 93 n/a 153 n/aWGBH HD 2.1 802 502 602 703 782 819Boston n/a 22 n/a 3 n/a n/a n/aKids & Family(Boston only)WGBH n/a Comcast 1 n/a n/a n/a n/a n/aOn Demand“Get Local,”“Local Networks”Cable channels: Channel numbers and availability may vary bycommunity; contact your provider.For more information, go to wgbh.org/tvchannelsRadioWGBH 89.7 Boston,in Back Bay/Beacon Hill tune in 96.3on Nantucket, tune in WNCK 89.5All-Classical WGBH89.7 HD2 BostonWCAI, WGBH’s Cape and Islands NPR® Station90.1 Martha’s Vineyard91.1 Nantucket94.3 Brewster89.7 HD3 BostonAll channels available streaming, on wgbh.org/multimediaStay ConnectedWGBH Member Hotline 617-300-3300weekdays 9am–5pm, membersonly@wgbh.orgCoxCharter24-Hour Program Feedback Line 617-300-5200Leadership Circle MemberLine 617-300-3505leadershipcircle@wgbh.orgRalph Lowell Society Hotline 617-300-3900ralph_lowell_society@wgbh.orgLocal Corporate Sponsorship and Advertising 617-300-3730rose_cullen@wgbh.org, wgbh.org/sponsorshipBell ExpressVu (Canada)Full schedules: wgbh.org; Go paperless: wgbh.org/paperlessguide1
