Final Thursday, President Trump issued an govt order directing the Company for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and all federal companies to stop federal funds, each immediately and not directly, to NPR and PBS.

In Juneau and all through Alaska, public media performs a significant function in every day life. In lots of communities the native public radio station is the one domestically owned and managed media outlet and sometimes the only real supply of native info.

These companies are deeply linked to the assets and collaborations offered by NPR, PBS and our statewide community. This consists of our function within the Emergency Alert and Wi-fi Alerts Methods and our potential to report throughout and after pure disasters. Shedding this funding would compromise our potential to proceed this important work.

KTOO has offered Juneau with impartial journalism, linked our neighborhood to the humanities and promoted civic participation for greater than a half century. KTOO has additionally linked each Alaskan to their state authorities by producing and distributing Gavel Alaska (beforehand known as Gavel to Gavel) for thirty years. Our dedication to public service has allowed KTOO to develop into a cornerstone of public belief.”
