About this listen
After issuing his own sweeping executive order, President Trump has sent a rescission notice to Congress seeking to eliminate all federal funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which includes NPR and PBS. Host Cristian Farias speaks with Nadine Farid Johnson, the Institute’s policy director, to break down historical and ongoing attempts by both Congress and the Executive to defund independent public broadcasting. Tami Graham, executive director of Colorado-based public radio station KSUT, speaks about her station’s important work serving both tribal and broader communities, as well as KSUT’s lawsuit against the Trump administration over attempted funding cuts. In the face of major threats, public broadcasters are fighting to protect their independence.
