Why the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is important to KKFI and YOU!
Public media is more than NPR and PBS. The Public Radio system nationwide is a network of over 4,600 noncommercial educational (NCE) stations, including community radio and small rural broadcasters. Many of these stations rely on the Public Radio Satellite System (PRSS)—a CPB-funded distribution system that carries national programs and enables delivery of emergency alerts like AMBER Alerts, weather warnings, and public safety notifications through the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and IPAWS (FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert and Warning System).
This infrastructure protects public safety and ensures access to free, fact-based news, cultural programming, and educational content, especially in rural, Tribal, and underserved areas. It ensures vital information can still reach the public during outages of internet, cable, or cell service. It is critical to emergency preparedness.
This moment demands action. Public media, like KKFI, is a public good. Support it now.
Contact your congressional representatives and tell them, THIS IS IMPORTANT.
