What does losing federal funding mean for KPBS?
Manage episode 495780125 series 2514024
Congress last week passed a rescission package put forth by the Trump administration to eliminate about $9 billion in previously allocated funds for public media and foreign aid.
That includes $1.1 billion for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), which essentially cuts all federal support for NPR, PBS, and member stations like KPBS.
KPBS General Manager Deanna Mackey joined Midday Edition to discuss how the funding loss may affect this station.
