From Cary Boyce, President and General ManagerFederal funding for public broadcasting and other agencies is in the news

lately. Sometimes there’s a fog of conflicting information. Did you know: • Federal funds for public media nationally come to $1.35 per person per

year. Public radio’s percentage is just 30 cents of this. • Corporation for Public Broadcasting funding is .0117 % (a little over one

one-hundredth of one percent) of the federal budget.• CPB funds average about 11 percent of SPR’s annual operational budget. • Public media nationally provides news, information, education, music,

culture, critical emergency and weather information to about 98% of the U.S. population.

• Closer to home, SPR reaches 1.1 million people in 750 communities across 20,000 square miles.

• Public media provides citizens with both public TV and public radio content, as well as digital resources, breaking news, and much more.

• Every dollar of federal funding attracts nine more dollars of private funding in donations, grants, underwriting and other revenue. SPR is our public radio station—now more than ever. More information

is at spokanepublicradio.org and www.protectmypublicmedia.org.

From Cary Boyce, President and General ManagerFederal funding for public broadcasting and other agencies is in the news

lately. Sometimes there’s a fog of conflicting information. Did you know: • Federal funds for public media nationally come to $1.35 per person per

year. Public radio’s percentage is just 30 cents of this.• Corporation for Public Broadcasting funding is .0117 % (a little over one

one-hundredth of one percent) of the federal budget.• CPB funds average about 11 percent of SPR’s annual operational budget.• Public media nationally provides news, information, education, music,

culture, critical emergency and weather information to about 98% of theU.S. population.

• Closer to home, SPR reaches 1.1 million people in 750 communities across20,000 square miles.

• Public media provides citizens with both public TV and public radiocontent, as well as digital resources, breaking news, and much more.

• Every dollar of federal funding attracts nine more dollars of privatefunding in donations, grants, underwriting and other revenue.SPR is our public radio station—now more than ever. More information
