Customer Reviews
WHY? No POLITICAL REWIND??
Georgia P B is canceling a voice that has informed with integrity! We (GPB) have taken the vitality out of reporting the political status of Georgia politics. I and thousands of GPB supporters will miss Political Rewind beyond what words can say.
I understand the motivation and deplore what I perceive to be a lack of political backbone at GPB. I will express my dismay here and with my diminishing donations.
We miss you Bill!
🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
What??? No “Political Rewind”??? I can’t believe that I will have to survive the upcoming challenges in the world of politics without Bill and his guests providing me with insightful and reliable discussion of the issues. Can’t believe that PBS had made such a blunder!
RIP Poli Rewind
Loved this show. Such an intuitive source of news in an age where unbiased reporting is so hard to find. Hate that GPB let this happen. I wish Bill and all of the other cast members who frequented the show so much continued success.
