Minimum wage is $6.25 per hour. That’s about a penny per minute.

Commercial radio stations air AT LEAST 10 minutes of ads per hour. At minimum wage, that’s 10 cents worth of their listener’s time.

Your public station [call letters] interrupts each hour for less than half of that.

At minimum, 5 cents per hour in a 40 hour week for a year is $104. Do you donate at least $104 for intelligent, high quality, uncluttered programming on your radio?

But you don’t make minimum wage, do you?

You won’t miss the cents per minute as much as you’d miss [call letter]. Call xxx-xxxx and become a donor today.

Thanks Sooby. Keep them coming.

Be careful about to many numbers. It's hard for listeners to follow along, and it tends to make it tough to remember the pledge number.
