A Message to Our Members from General Manager Mark Leonard

2

Innovation from AdversityWe have begun implementing changes over the past year to meet the funding challenges that affect WILL, particu-larly as a result of a two-year decline in funding from the state. Although bud-get and staffing cuts are never pleasant, they can result in fresh, innovative ap-proaches. In the case of WILL, we have invested considerable time and effort evaluating our programs and services to identify what is essential, with an eye toward the rapidly changing role that media plays in our society.

An example of the dramatic change in established media: The Detroit Free Press announced on December 16 that it will be reducing its home delivery of newspapers to three days a week, mark-ing the first major daily newspaper to abandon full-week delivery to homes. The Christian Science Monitor plans to stop printing newspapers on a daily basis in April, relying exclusively on Web readership.

Why does this matter to WILL? We must be equally mindful of the ever evolving competition for people’s time

and attention. A generation of young adults has no interest in radio. If they ever used a radio, which is doubtful, it has now been replaced by on-demand media players like iPods. They demand control over their media, something that traditional broadcasters (like us), find to be very threatening. As we ignore their expectations, they increas-ingly migrate to other media forms—YouTube, Hulu, Facebook, Pandora.

Our challenge is to navigate the changes in user expectation, decreases in funding, and the incorporation of emerging technologies without offend-ing or alienating our core of current listeners, viewers and supporters. No small feat!

One example of meeting our chal-lenges is the changes to our FM radio service that kick off this month. We are shifting our emphasis away from using our on-air talent exclusively to host daily programs. If we are to be truly lo-cal and unique, we need to be building a more robust connection to our local arts and cultural scene. It’s hard to do that when you are confined to a radio

studio for the majority of your work-ing hours. So beginning this month, we are freeing up Kevin Kelly to join Roger Cooper in working more exten-sively outside the building, producing features about our local performance scene, as well as preparing a weekly arts calendar for use on air and on the Web. Vic Di Geronimo will move his show to 6-10 am, where the largest au-dience for FM 90.9 occurs, and where local live information is most valu-able to listeners. By being challenged financially, WILL was forced to look for new work patterns, ones that hopefully will build upon our strength of being a local media organization. The music we play can be found many places—on CDs, off satellite or through the Inter-net. The connections to our local arts and performance communities are something that these other sources can never duplicate.

Thank you for your continued support and interest in WILL. We look forward to an ongoing dialogue with you as we navigate these challenging times.

FM 90.9 will devote more attention to promoting regional music performances beginning this month. Kevin Kelly has been named WILL’s first community music and arts producer, and as such will host a new noontime program on FM featuring local music and artists, joining senior community events liaison Roger Cooper in giving listeners expanded access to information about music events and organizations in our communities. Meanwhile, Vic Di Geronimo takes over from Kevin on weekdays to host a new and expanded four-hour morning music program.

Live and Local with Kevin Kelly, airing from noon to 1 pm weekdays beginning February 2, will feature music as well as interviews and features about music-mak-ing in central Illinois. These features and interviews will also be heard on Prairie Performances Sunday evenings as well as on AM 580 and on-demand on the WILL Web site. In addition, Kevin will produce Living Music Calendar modules that will air regularly on FM, covering music events throughout the listening area, and which will also be accessible at our Web site. Kevin, who serves as music director of The Prairie Ensemble and The East Central Illinois Youth Orchestra in addition to his work at WILL, said he’s looking forward to providing more in-formation to listeners about local events

Kevin Kelly Named WILL Community Music Producer; Vic Di Geronimo Moves to Mornings

To promote your music event, call Roger at 217-345-5083 or email him at [email protected]. Call Kevin at 217-244-2619 or email him at [email protected]. Write them c/o WILL-FM, 300 N. Goodwin Ave., Urbana IL 61801.

from communities served by FM 90.9 along with interviews, reviews and pre-views of local and touring performers.

Budget cuts necessitated another change this month. Performance Today will be replaced Monday through Thurs-day with classical music suitable for the dinner hour hosted by Bob Christian-sen, Valerie Kahler and Alison Young. Other changes include a move of the Friday afternoon repeat of NPR’s young musician showcase From the Top to 6 pm Sundays, and Jeff Esworthy taking over the 10 to noon weekday slot.

Jake encouraged anyone in the FM 90.9 coverage area to contact Kevin or Roger if there is a musical event that needs promotion. “We’re excited to be able to increase our commitment to local arts as a primary component of our work,” he said. “Kevin and Roger both have deep ties to music in central Illinois, and they’ll be expanding and strengthening those ties. Expect to see them out and about in your hometown!”

and musicians. “It’s a real opportunity for us to connect with the vast array of musical organizations throughout our listening area,” Kevin said. “And it’s a great opportunity for those organiza-tions to broadcast what they’re doing to a wide audience.”

Vic Di Geronimo will host The Morn-ing Express from 6 to 10 am Monday through Friday. “We’re adding the 6 am hour because we believe we can better serve listeners at that hour with a local host,” said FM program director Jake Schumacher. “The Morning Express will combine Vic’s extensive knowledge of performances and repertoire with the things radio listeners need in the morn-ing: frequent weather and time-checks, timely information about things like school closings and severe weather.”

During the past year, WILL has been trying to realize savings in its day-to-day operations, while reallocating some in-creasingly scarce resources to a more ac-tive engagement with the communities served by the stations, Jake said. FM 90.9 took steps in that direction when Roger agreed to serve as Senior Community Events Liaison after retiring from his weekday program. Among other duties in that role, he produces and hosts Prairie Performances on Sunday nights (now from 7 to 10 pm), airing concerts

fending a slave holder trying to reclaim a slave named Jane Bryant and her chil-dren; brandishing a sword on the banks of the Mississippi River at dawn before being talked out of fighting a duel; and crossing the prairie reading a book atop his horse, Old Tom, on the way to his next stop on the circuit.

Dozens of local reenactors from New Salem State Park and the David Davis Mansion Illinois State Historic Site played extras in the documentary, filmed at rural sites near Bloomington and Decatur. Scores of others, including local theater actors and WILL-TV staff, played parts in the reenactment scenes. Joe Woodard of Hazel Dell portrayed Lincoln. Bloomington attorney Guy Fraker, an expert on Lincoln’s years on the circuit, was content adviser for the documentary.

The WILL-TV documentary was pro-duced and written by Alison Davis Wood, co-produced and directed by Tim Hartin, and edited by Colin Hartin. The one-hour documentary shows how Lincoln’s work on the circuit meshed neatly with his political career. In the

Riding through prairie grass on trails just barely wide enough for his horse, Abraham Lincoln traveled more than 500 miles each spring and fall as a law-yer on Illinois’ Eighth Judicial Circuit, then the fastest growing area of the country.

His experiences from 1837 to 1860 on muddy roads, in homes of friends and in courtrooms on the circuit in central Illinois shaped the views and honed the skills that guided him when he became president. Produced by WILL-TV, Lincoln: Prelude to the Presidency airs at 8 pm Monday, February 9 (repeated at 7:30 pm Thursday, February 12), telling the story of the cases he tried and people he met during this critical period of his life.

Prelude to the Presidency

“That’s where he really got a sense of the various kinds of problems people faced,” said historian Doris Kearns Goodwin, one of the experts featured in the documentary. “He got a sense of the exuberance of their dreams and their hopes. In a certain sense, I think it was the root of his political education.”

Reenactments of Lincoln on horseback on the dusty circuit, telling stories with friends and trying cases in court help viewers envision his formative experi-ences on the circuit. Viewers see Lincoln as they’ve never seen him before: de-

PBS, WILL-TV and WILL-AM cel-ebrate the 200th anniversary of Abra-ham Lincoln’s birth this month by exploring the life, death and legacy of the man widely considered one of America’s best and most enigmatic presidents.

At 8 pm Tuesday, February 10, two days shy of Abraham Lincoln’s 200th birthday, WILL-TV airs American Experience: The Assassination of Abraham Lincoln, from Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Barak Goodman. Interviews with the nation’s foremost Lincoln scholars recount a great American drama: two tumultuous months when the joy of peace was shattered by the heartache of Lincoln’s death. At the heart of the story are two figures who define the extremes of charac-ter: Lincoln, who had the strength to transform suffering into infinite compassion, and John Wilkes Booth, above, the assassin who allowed hatred to curdle into destruction.

A. Lincoln, Attorney At Law, air-ing on WILL-TV at 9:30 pm Tuesday, February 10, examines the legal style of Abraham Lincoln. Central Illinois filmmaker Craig Lindvahl focuses on a critical period that shaped the way Lincoln would govern.

Then at 8 pm Wed-nesday, February 11, Looking for Lincoln, hosted by Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates Jr., addresses

many of the controversies surround-ing Lincoln — race, equality, religion, politics, depression — by carefully interpreting evidence from those who knew him and those who study him today.

Gates shows how the Lincoln legend grew out of controversy, greed, love, clashing political perspectives, power struggles and considerable disagree-ment over how the 16th president should be remembered.

WILL-AM airs two programs about Lincoln produced by WUIS radio in Springfield. At 6 pm Saturday, Febru-ary 14, Lincoln as a Lawmaker looks at how Lincoln’s time spent as a state

lawmaker prepared him for his time as presi-

dent. At 6 pm on Sat-urday, February 21,

Lincoln and Cam-paign Politics

examines the politics of the 1860 and 1864 presidential campaigns and compares them to contemporary campaigns.

The Life, Death and Legacy of Abraham Lincoln

evenings after finishing his legal work, he would gather a crowd for a speech, enabling him to advance careers in both politics and law during his travels. As he made friends and visited in people’s homes, he was building the political base that supported him in the years ahead, experts say.

The gangly, disheveled Lincoln made an impression when he came into town. “People noticed him. Here on the fron-tier, he didn’t drink, he didn’t smoke, he hardly ever used foul language. There was some special quality about him that people did notice,” said his-torian and University of Illinois history professor Orville Vernon Burton.

Of the 5,000 cases Lincoln handled during his legal career, the documen-tary features his representation of slaveholder Robert Matson; his defense of Melissa Goings, who was accused of murdering her abusive husband; his suc-cessful defense of murder suspect Duff Armstrong by using the moon tables in the Farmer’s Almanac; and his represen-tation of Rebecca Thomas, a Revolution-ary War soldier’s widow whose pension was threatened by a pension agent. The documentary examines Lincoln’s attitudes toward race and slavery, which developed in discussions with people on the circuit.

Lincoln: Prelude to the Presidency was made possible by contributions from the Illinois Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission; Country Financial; the University of Illinois College of Law; the Monticello Chamber of Commerce; the Office of the Chancellor, University of Il-linois at Urbana-Champaign; the Illinois State Bar Association and the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library & Museum.

Possible Analog Shut-Off Delay As Patterns went to press, the new administration requested a delay in the analog shut-off date, originally scheduled for February 17. If you still have questions about the transition, please give us a call at 217-333-7300. We don’t want anyone left behind in the transition.

It’s time to vote again — this time, for your favorite British comedy! Join us at 7 pm Saturday, February 7 as WILL-TV hosts the Great BritCom Vote X. Call in your selection and we’ll tally the votes. Once the results are final, WILL-TV program director David Thiel plans to purchase the winning program to air during the next fiscal year. Here are the choices, pictured in order at right:

When we last checked in on To the Manor Born a quarter of a century ago, the indomitable Audrey fforbes-Hamil-ton (Penelope Keith) was marrying the dashing, self-made businessman Rich-ard DeVere (Peter Bowles) to continue a relationship centered on disagree-ment about pretty much everything.

In its second chapter, Blackadder II transports us to Elizabethan England and to a particularly cunning Edmund, the illegitimate great-great-grandson of the Blackadder from series I. Miranda Richardson stars as the Queen, with Rowan Atkinson as Lord Edmund Blackadder.

One Foot in the Grave follows the mis-fortunes of cantankerous old grouch Victor Meldrew (Richard Wilson) as he

rails against the injustices of the world around him.

Gareth Blackstock (Lenny Henry) is an arrogant, bullish perfectionist more at ease deal-ing with profiteroles than people in Chef!

Penelope Keith and Paul Ed-dington star as Margo and Jerry Leadbetter in The Good Neigh-bors. Richard Briers and Felicity Kendal are neighbors Tom and Barbara Good, whose living off the land antics put them at odds with the social-climbing Lead-betters.

Can we surpass the all-time high-est vote getter, To the Manor Born, which garnered 125 votes in 2000? How about the most total votes cast, which numbered 346 in 2001? “However it turns out, it’s about creating a night of fun in our pledge drive and, of course, raising the funds neces-sary to continue to afford these relatively expensive additions to our PBS national schedule,” David said.

Worldfocus, a nightly news program and Web site, reports on events from around the world and covers the stories that don’t always make the headlines. By partnering with international news organiza-tions, Worldfocus fills the void in international news coverage and in-forms American viewers about the relevance of international events.

Using the diverse perspectives of journalists, bloggers and local citi-zens, Worldfocus extends its reach beyond that of the traditional news-room, and offers a broad range of voices from around the world — from the European econom-ics professor to the El Salvadoran shopkeeper blogging about his daily business. Worldfocus airs at 10:30 pm Monday-Friday on PBS World.

How America Beat

Polio Based in part on David Os-hinsky’s Pulitzer Prize-winning book, Polio: An American Story, American Experience chronicles the decades-long crusade to eradicate one of the 20th centu-ry’s most dreaded diseases. The largest public health experiment in American history featured virologist Jonas Salk’s develop-ment of a novel vaccine and a 6-year-old who received the first vaccination at Sherman Elemen-tary School in McLean, Vir-ginia. After uncertainties about whether the vaccine was safe or would provide effective protec-tion against the disease, nearly 2 million children in 44 states received the shots—a dramatic culmination of research and a multimillion dollar investment, made in large part by public donations.

The Bold and Brave

Oliver TwistA young orphan is branded a rebel for wanting more gruel, leading to a phantasmagoria of adventures in early 19th-century London. William Miller stars as Oliver Twist in this new adaptation of Charles Dickens’ much-loved story, with Timothy Spall as Fagin, the cut-purse king, Adam Arnold as the Artful Dodger and a galaxy of other great actors creating the seedy, sentimental and colorful world that can only be called Dickensian.

In Part 1 on February 15, Oliver is sold to an undertaker, where his mistreatment forces him to escape to London. There he is adopted by a criminal gang led by Fagin and soon falls afoul of the law. The story continues on February 22 when Oliver is wounded during a night burglary attempt with the psychopath Sikes (Tom Hardy), and nursed back to health by Nancy (Sophie Okenedo). Little does he know that a battle is raging between those who want to save him and kill him.

21Saturday 7:00 Antiques Roadshow



Sarah McLachlan/Duffy.

Volcanic eruptions that killed and buried victims quickly in China’s Liaon-ing Province preserved primitive birds, bees, insects, early mammals and dinosaurs in fine-grained fossils. Now, examination of the soft, fragile features found in these fossils—such as feathers on animals never known to have them—is challenging old ideas about the origin of bird flight. The central character in this drama is a strange little dinosaur with wings on its legs as well as its arms. The pigeon-sized microraptor is the smallest adult dinosaur ever found, perhaps the first known tree dweller. But could it really fly? Is it the key to understanding the origin of flight or merely an evolutionary dead end unrelated to the ancestry of birds?

To help solve the riddle, NOVA assembled a team of top paleontologists, aeronautical engineers and paleo-artists to reconstruct the microraptor and build a sophisticated model for a wind tunnel experiment. The results have surprising implica-tions for long-accepted ideas about how winged flight began.

Who better to tour with on a memo-rable journey through New England, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick than your fellow Friends of WILL? Plan now to join us September 23 to October 3 for this special, fun-filled trip designed exclusively for you!

Boston is one of our stops, where we’ll experience firsthand its reputation as a center of history, art and education. You’ll enjoy a stay at what was once home to the Boston Police Department, now known as the Back Bay Hotel, as well as a private tour of the Boston Ath-enaeum and a behind-the-scenes visit with staffers in the WGBH newsroom where The World is produced.

Once we leave Beantown, we’ll settle in to deluxe accommodations aboard ship for a cruise up New England’s coast, including stops at Portland and Bar Harbor, Maine, and Saint John, New Brunswick. What’s more, we’ll experi-

ence the 170-mile long Bay of Fundy that stretches between the provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia on Canada’s east coast. We’ll see for ourselves why it’s known for the world’s

highest tides. Each day, 100 billion tons of seawater flow in and out of this bay during one tide cycle—more than the combined flow of the world’s freshwater rivers! Then it’s on to Halifax, Nova Scotia, for a tour of the fishing village of Peggy’s Cove, where you can mail greet-ings to friends at home from the only post office located in a lighthouse! This outstanding tour package includes local departure from Champaign, De-catur or Springfield, round trip airfare, three nights in hotels, seven nights on the cruise, transportation and sightsee-ing during the pre-cruise portion and 28 meals. Based on double occupancy, the price per person ranges from $2,582 for an interior stateroom to $3,532 for a suite, plus taxes and fees of $298 and insurance of $84 to $233 per person.

For more information, call Danda Beard at 217-333-1070 or go to www.tourgroup-pro.com/will.

Include our WILL Tour in Your 2009 Travel Plans!

De-cluttering your home can turn into a win-win situation when you donate used records, CDs, DVDs and all types of audio equipment in working order to our 2009 Vin-tage Vinyl sale, scheduled for Sat-urday, May 16 at Urbana’s Lincoln Square Village. You win the battle over too much stuff and WILL’s Illinois Radio Reader triumphs in providing news and information to blind and print-handicapped audi-ences in east central Illinois. We’re also looking for volunteers to sort all of the wonderful donations prior to the sale.

Please contact Deane Geiken, event organizer and director of the Illinois Radio Reader, at 217-333-6503 to donate items or to volunteer.

Thanks to these Program Underwriters

This month’s featured underwriter is one of WILL’s longest and most loyal, Archer Daniels Midland Company. ADM, with international headquarters based in Decatur, has been underwriting programs on WILL TV and radio for over 25 years. ADM is now partnering with WILL to help support and advance our current and new services in agricultural reporting such as podcasting and our agricultural e-newsletter.

Archer Daniels Midland Company is one of the largest agricultural processors in the world. For over 100 years, ADM has served as a vital link between farmers and and the world. ADM turns crops into food ingredients, animal feed ingredients, renewable fuels and naturally derived alternatives to industrial chemicals.

ADM’s partnership with farmers is built on a common fundamental resourcefulness. Farmers have been resourceful in adapting to new challenges and demands of the global market and ADM uses its resourcefulness to increase the value of farmers’ harvests by finding new uses and creating new markets for their crops.

ADM understands that farmers don’t just feed us; they sustain us—growing crops and growing jobs across the world. They’re essential to the global economy.

Throughout the year, ADM sponsors a number of efforts to celebrate their partners in the agriculture industry and their hometowns. From the Farm Progress Show to National Agriculture Day and FFA Scholarships, they are proud to invest in the people and communities of American agriculture.

WILL thanks ADM for their continuing support of our agricultural services and the use of our new media technologies.
