News & Public Affairs

An informed citizenry is critically important to our community, our Commonwealth, our nation and our world. Our system as a democratic government requires each of us to make decisions about how we will live and how we will rule ourselves. For decades, voters, students and citizens of all ages have turned to public radio and television for news and information they can believe and trust which enable them to form a firm foundation for their decision making.

Our viewers and listeners turn to the Community Idea Stations for:

  • Programs that respect our intelligence
  • Balanced, in-depth news and public affairs
  • Local news and information to keep abreast of key issues, including those in the General Assembly
  • The Governor’s State of the Commonwealth address each year
  • Programs that help us grasp the complexities of our world
