Long known for his ground breaking work in public television and radio (including collaborative efforts with the late Joseph Campbell and others), Bill Moyers hosts the NOW program on PBS. Designed to complement the actual television program, the website contains copious information about each week's program, including a full transcript of the proceedings. The program itself is divided into four segments, crossing into the thematic areas of politics, science, society, and community. Recent segments have covered the Earth Conservation Corps, the future of Burma, and the thorny subject of race in America. Additional highlights of the site include teacher resources (such as lesson plans), online polls, and an online discussion board, where recent topics have included Martin Luther King, Jr. and poetry. Finally, visitors can browse through the online archive which extends back to January 2002.
