CW NETWORK AFFILIATES

The May 17 program entitled "Labor and Education" will rerun in prime time from 10:00 to 11:00 p.m. PDT on Thursday, 26 May 2011, on Reno CW Network affiliate KRNS TV. It will repeat from 4:00 to 5:00 a.m. PDT on Saturday, May 28, and Tuesday, May 31.

The CW is available on Nevada cable systems at channel 6. Satellite (Dish, Direct et al.) or AT&T UVerse subscribers in the telecast area noted hereinbelow should consult their program guides for the dial position of KRNS TV from Reno.

If you are searching your TV guide programming database, be advised that we are pre-empting Tyler Perry's House of Payne at 10:00 p.m. and Tyler Perry's Meet the Browns at 10:30 p.m. pm the CW. So search those titles. It takes six weeks to two months to get a listing in the big computer back east and I never have that much lead time.

KRNS is accessible through the airwaves on digital 27.2 or analog 46. It is receivable over the air from just east of Sacramento, Calif., to Pershing County, Nev., and to the south through Fallon, Yerington and Mineral County (Hawthorne), Nev.

Viewers with analog TV sets without digital converters, cable or satellite may access the program over the air with rabbit ears at UHF channel 46. Viewers in Susanville, Calif., may receive CW-Reno over the air at analog channel 29, again with no converter necessary.

It became necessary to destroy the state in order to save it
Will legislative stalemate spawn litigation and petitions?


RENO, Nev.(5-26-2011) – With the Nevada legislature apparently paralyzed, the political debate has turned toward outside-the-box budgeting.

Tonight's edition of Barbano on the Barbwire explores two options: Budgeting by litigation and initiative petition.

This evening at 10:00 p.m., every television set in the region will be able to view a discussion of causes and possible courses of action.

The Nevada State AFL-CIO has raised the specter of circulating an initiative to do what the legislative and executive branches apparently can do no longer: fund basic government services. Its affiliated unions have more than enough members statewide to qualify initiatives without going out of house. After years of congressional and legislative inaction, organized labor raised the state minimum wage by petition in 2006, almost entirely a benefit to non-union workers.

The Reno-Sparks NAACP has been building a coalition to explore potential court action against state government for violating constitutional mandates by illegally underfunding education for years. (The Nevada League of Women Voters prevailed in such an case against the Clark County School District in 1969. The NAACP's recent letter to lawmakers is posted at RenoSparksNAACP.org)

Tonight, program host Andrew Barbano welcomes three frontline Nevadans: Paul McKenzie, executive secretary-treasurer of the Building and Construction Trades Council of Northern Nevada/AFL-CIO; Emma Guerrero, a sophomore political science major at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas and Sheralynn Kern, an 11-year state employee and member of American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) Local 4041/AFL-CIO.

Representatives of the Las Vegas and Reno-Sparks chambers of commerce were invited to participate, as was the Sandoval administration.

All turned it down.

The program airs in prime time from 10:00 to 11:00 p.m. PDT on Thursday, 26 May 2011, on Reno CW Network affiliate KRNS TV. It will repeat on that station from 4:00 to 5:00 a.m. PDT on Saturday, May 28, and Tuesday, May 31.

The CW station is available on northern Nevada cable systems at channel 6. Satellite (Dish, Direct et al.) or AT&T UVerse subscribers in the telecast area noted below should consult their program guides for the dial position of KRNS TV from Reno.

KRNS is receivable over the air at digital 27.2 or analog 46 from just east of Sacramento, Calif., to Pershing County, Nevada, and to the south through Fallon, Yerington and Mineral County (Hawthorne), Nevada.

TV sets without digital converters, cable or satellite may access the program over the air with rabbit ears at analog UHF channel 46. Viewers in Susanville, Calif., may receive CW-Reno over the air at analog channel 29, again with no converter necessary.

A CW Network coverage map may be accessed at Barbwire.TV. Rebroadcast times in other parts of the state will be posted later as schedules are finalized.

The program will also rerun on Charter cable channels on Friday, May 27, at 8:00 p.m. and Saturday at 11:00 p.m. Reno-Sparks-Washoe viewers can tune in digital channel 216, Carson City/Dayton digital households can dial in channel 226. Those with digital converters for analog over-the-air TV sets may also be able to receive the program on 80-295. The program is also available online via Barbwire.TV.

The next live cablecast of The Barbwire is scheduled for 7:00 to 8:00 p.m. on Tuesday, May 31, on Washoe Charter channel 216 and Carson/Dayton channels 210 and 226. The live in-studio call-in line is 882-TALK (775-882-8255). Questions may be submitted in advance by e-mail to <barbano@frontpage.reno.nv.us>

Next Tuesday's guest lineup will be posted at Barbwire.TV.

Rebroadcast times and stations will be announced later.

Quotes from tonight's guests:

Paul McKenzie: "The (Republican) minority caucus in both houses clearly stated on the first day of this legislative session that they would be unwilling to even discuss generating the revenue needed to balance the state's budget and properly fund your children’s education unless the (Democratic) majority party was willing to attack the working men and women of this state.

"So here you are, brothers and sisters. You are the hostages of Nevada’s governor and his political party. You are the hostages of the Chamber of Commerce. And they are holding you and your future hostage, not to fix the problems of this state, but rather only after you have been sacrificed will they be willing to discuss – I repeat, not agree to — but discuss a way to fix Nevada’s financial woes."

       (From McKenzie's speech at the May 19 labor rally in front of the legislature.)

Emma Guerrero: "I worry that there won't be a UNLV to grant me a degree."

Sheralynn Kern: "We have state employees working for minimum wage. One woman takes home only $1,800 a month after 23 years on the job."
