RESOLVED,

LILLY ENDOWMENT INC.
Since 1997, Lilly Endowment Inc. has provided generous funding support for the acclaimed PBS newsmagazine program "Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly," produced by Thirteen/WNET New York.
As a result of Lilly Endowment's leadership and support, "Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly," the only program of its kind on television, has become a notable example of fair and balanced news reporting. Its thoughtful coverage of religion and ethics news serves as a model for other broadcasters, respectfully recognizing the importance of religion in American life.
Honored with numerous awards from the broadcast industry for outstanding journalism, "Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly" illustrates public broadcasting's commitment to excellence and public service.
For seven years of generous contributions to the development, production and broadcast of "Religion & Ethics NewsWeekly," the CPB Board expresses its deep appreciation to Lilly Endowment Inc.
