In a world plagued with oversaturation of commercial media outlets, the universal access of public media that focuses on the highest editorial standards is critical for an informed nation. On a local, state and national level, public media lives with a mission of service and yet with our younger generation of citizens may face a lack of discovery as a source of trusted journalism. Nashville PBS is committed to teaching media literacy and being a conduit for journalists to reach the public with a multiplatform approach based on journalistic integrity. This is a new era of public media and there’s never been a greater need for journalism.
