John Lewis

I have supported PBS for years--programming, auctions, etc. My TVdial almost never goes off WNED KCET, WGBH, etc. I was actually appalled that the short shrift was given to the death of John Lewis---possibly less than a minute. I have seen tributes to movie stars, rock musicians, and the ilk that lasted possibly 5 minutes. Mr. Lewis was such a heroic person. I hope that PBS does a documentary about him very soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
