I'm not affiliated with a station anymore so I can say this openly: Do not let the feds cut funding for public media. I just had quick conversations with staffers in Young and Banks's offices. It took six minutes, tops. Protect this resource. protectmypublicmedia.org

Laying off smart, caring local journalists is a blow for our community, always. Hoping these reporters and editors get snatched up elsewhere ❣️❣️

It's been a privilege to come home to Indiana to do work I'm so proud of. I'm disappointed by the decision. But I'm grateful for the incredible journalists (like Brandon) that I've gotten to work with for so long. Shout out to WFYI Public Media Collective for the six-month notice for job hunting.
