Filmmaker auctions public TV underwriting credit on eBay
Listen to the Future Tense Interview | How to Listen
Unable to find corporate underwriters, Chuck Strinz says he went deeply in debt making his film "Back on the Mississippi." The film tells stories of people and places along the Mississippi River, from St. Paul to the Quad Cities of Illinois and Iowa, and will air later this year on several public television stations across the country. It's already been shown on stations in Minnesota and Iowa.
Strinz would still like to find underwriters for the program, so he's trying to auction an underwriting credit on eBay.
