Public Media folks, this one is going to be a good one. Hear directly from Press Forward leaders about what their national funding means for Public Media!
Robust local news is a public good essential for the well-being of our communities and the civic health of a thriving democracy. That’s the premise behind the Press Forward donor collaborative, which is raising and deploying new resources for local news across the country. But what does this mean for local public media organizations, which collectively employ over 4,400 local reporters nationwide? That’s the topic of our upcoming webinar with Dale Anglin (Director at Press Forward), Jim Brady (VP/Journalism at The Knight Foundation), and Silvia R. (Director, Local News at MacArthur Foundation), a conversation facilitated by Tim Isgitt (CEO of Public Media Company).
