New Hampshire Public Radio is continuing to speak up for press freedom and public radio journalism. On Friday, NHPR joined a friend of the court brief filed in Washington, D.C., making the case for blocking President Trump’s executive order that would defund public media. The legal declaration supports NPR and three Colorado stations that have sued Trump over his efforts to claw back federal funding for public radio and television.

The gloves are off. On Tuesday, President Trump sent Congress his plan to defund public media. The White House, calling public media a “grift” that “has ripped us off for too long,” has declared that public radio and TV stations “spread radical, woke propaganda disguised as ‘news.’ ”As a listener to NHPR, a reader of NHPR.org, or a fan of our podcasts or newsletters, you know that’s not true. You rely on New Hampshire Public Radio for in-depth, independent local news and information.

Starting this week, you’ll see something new on NHPR.org. We’ve launched a new revenue initiative, adding what people in the media business call “sponsored content” to the underwriting options we make available to corporate sponsors. Sponsored content (or “paid posts,” as we’re labeling this material) has existed in many guises for decades. Newspaper and magazine readers are familiar with special sections written and paid for by advertisers (sometimes called advertorial).

I want to offer some perspective on the news we woke up to this morning about an executive order aimed at stripping federal funding from NPR and PBS. The executive order directs the Corporation of Public Broadcasting (CPB) to block stations like NHPR from paying dues to NPR that sustain the national-local partnership that makes programs like Morning Edition and All Things Considered possible.

Healthy communities stand on a foundation of trust. Trust springs from knowing your neighbors and their concerns, knowing that officials and institutions are honest and reliable, and knowing there are forums where your voice can be heard. Trustworthy information is vital in emergencies. Trustworthy journalism is essential when change comes so fast it’s hard to keep up.

Attacks on journalists have no place in American life. Everyone @nhpr is grateful to @TheJusticeDept for persistence in pursuing Eric Spofford. His attempt to silence our reporting failed, as should every attempt to snuff out press freedom. https://t.co/mn89ioX3xk
Hey @AmericanAir. Flight 3783 taking off an hour late from ORD without a word of explanation. How come?
