It’s not too much of a stretch to say that public broadcasting was invented in Wisconsin. Since the early experiments of 1917, the stations of Wisconsin Public Radio and Wisconsin Public Television have served the citizens of our state with distinctive and groundbreaking educational and informational programming.
On behalf of the members of the Wisconsin Public Radio Association and Friends of WHA-TV, we call on the Legislature to sustain state funding for our state’s public radio and public televisions stations. WPR and WPT are nationally renowned public broadcasting services.
