Manage episode 480977301 series 2489871
Public media outlets say they will fight President Trump’s executive order directing the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to end its financial support for NPR and PBS. Public media leaders and executives question the order’s legality and say a loss of federal funding endangers the broader network of public media programming. We look at the potential impact on stations in rural communities in California, where those outlets are often the only source of news and emergency warnings. Join us.
Guests:
David Folkenflik, media correspondent, NPR News
Dina Polkinghorne, interim general manager, KZYX / Mendocino County Public Broadcasting
Connie Leyva, executive director, KVCR in the Inland Empire
