Today Edgar B. Herwick III, Callie Crossley and Culture Show contributor Lisa Simmons go over the latest arts and culture headlines on our week-in-review.

First up, we look at the future of public media now that Congress has stripped more than $1 billion from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
