The headlines from Washington on Federal funding for public media hit home here in Chattanooga and the Tennessee Valley.
This station, WUTC - a service of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga - is the NPR member station for this area, while the local PBS member station is WTCI PBS.
Both stations receive part of their funding from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
Bob Culkeen is President and CEO of WTCI PBS.
Danny Fell is a volunteer - and a member of WTCI's Board of Directors.
