    “Millions of people rely on public media for trusted local news, educational programming, and stories that reflect their lives and experiences,” mentioned John Palfrey, president of the MacArthur Basis. 

    “Stations serving rural, small to mid-market and Native communities as well as documentary ecosystems are disproportionately impacted by the funding cuts and need intentional support. These stations are more than just broadcasters — they are critical sources of information and connection.”
