I want to update you on legislative action in Washington about funding for public media. Last week, the House Appropriations Committee sent a bill to the full House that would eliminate future funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The legislation would also zero out funds for the distribution systems that connect public media outlets and provide the backbone for local, state and national emergency alert systems. The House is expected to take up the measure at the end of the month.

NHPR’s mission commits us to telling the stories of our changing state. That requires our organization and our journalism to reflect – and embrace – the increasingly diverse perspectives of people across New Hampshire and beyond. It requires us to model inclusion in our sources, in the voices we lift, in our reporting and in the conversations we conduct; in the makeup of our staff, Board of Trustees and Community Advisory Board, and in the ways we spend money and conduct our business.

In keeping with our commitment to becoming a more diverse and inclusive news organization, NHPR is making regular reports to the public on diversity in our journalism. Our content teams – the NHPR newsroom and the people who make our podcasts – have been tracking the race/ethnicity and gender of the sources cited or guests included in their work.

Part of our commitment to increasing diversity at New Hampshire Public Radio is being transparent about our own numbers — not just the voices in our journalism, but the people who create and support it. It is important that the people of NHPR reflect the communities we serve; our journalism is only made better with a greater diversity of experiences and perspectives in the process.

NHPR today is resuming its use of Twitter to share news and program updates and to connect with people for whom the platform is a valuable source of trustworthy information. We paused our use of Twitter in April, when it labeled our partner NPR as “state-affiliated” (and later “government-funded”) media, falsely insinuating U.S. government influence on NPR’s independent journalism. Several months have passed since those derogatory labels were removed.
