NPR's Foreign Coverage Gets Support from CPB. Poynter.

Corporation for Public Broadcasting gives NPR $500,000 for foreign news coverage | Poynter.
For those of us who believe that events throughout the world are connected...that what happens in Jerusalem and Beijing affects what happens here...this is good news.  The grant will help fund coverage in some areas where it is difficult to do so.  The $500,000 grant to NPR supports continued foreign news reporting from some of the world’s most challenging regions in the Middle East, Africa and Asia.


Audience research for public radio supports the idea that listeners come to the service to find international coverage. 


What are the reasons you use this service?
