Federal funding for public media has been eliminated. This decision is devastating for the millions of people who rely on public media every day. We're moving into an uncharted future, but our commitment to you will never waver.

WFDD and a remarkable network of local stations will fight to continue to bring you rigorous journalism, courageous storytelling, inspired music discovery, and the kind of reporting that democracy depends on — every day, without fear or favor.

That is the promise of a free press in a democracy. It’s in the First Amendment. It is the mission of WFDD.
