Chicago’s nearly completed Museum of Broadcast Communications took another big step forward Thursday with the announcement of a $2.7 million grant from Comcast Corp., NBC News and NBC 5 Chicago. A jubilant Bruce DuMont, founder, president and CEO of the museum, called it the biggest infusion of support since Governor Pat Quinn fulfilled the state’s long-delayed capital development grant of $6 million in 2010. “We are grateful to have Comcast, NBC News, and NBC 5 Chicago — institutions that have contributed so much to the history of television — show so much support for our new facility,” DuMont said in a statement. “We are excited to open our doors and share the experience with visitors.” Source: Time Out Chicago.

Julian Assange has announced that he's going to have his own TV show, where he'll interview "key political players, thinkers and revolutionaries", and it's going to be hitting the screens in spring. Is there anything this man won't do? The announcement was made on the WikiLeaks website yesterday, and explained how Assange is "uniquely placed to catalyse a global discussion" on future political change. There are going to be ten whole episodes, apparently, and they will air in mid-March. There's currently no word on where the show will be broadcast, or on which networks, though the statement describes that it will reach "600m viewers across cable, satellite and terrestrial broadcast networks".
