Native American Radio Station Threatened by CPB Recission Vote
WORT isn’t the only community radio station in Wisconsin in fear of losing funding from the threatened recission of funding of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting — Jan Miyasaki talks about the issues and repercussions of the threat with Karl Habeck, General Manager of WOJB Woodland Community Radio, the first Native American station east of the Mississippi River. Tucked away near Hayward, WI, WOJB serves a 100 mile radius around Hayward with National Public Radio programming, local programs, educational programs, community wide radio shows, school closings, and a myriad of other essential community programs — all of which are in limbo, awaiting a congressional decision.
