NewsRoom takes a break after successful CRFC LJI program wraps up!
CFURadio 88.7FM wraps up their NewsRoom this spring following support from the CRFC’s Local Journalism Initiatives Grant. Just shy of $30,000 has been injected into the region’s news landscape since this past fall! Many in our community and surrounding area acknowledge more Local news coverage is needed. Genevieve Tucker, CFURadio Station Manager, says, “In a region as large as ours, creativity and many resources are required to gather news and make an impact with the coverage. I can firmly say that our NewsRoom, headed by Ian Gregg, successfully surpassed this challenge. Ian poured his pure passion into these stories, and we really couldn’t be more proud with how well the program was received.” CFURadio’s NewsRoom captured, then shared, news and issues affecting communities throughout our region both online through canada-info.ca, https://www.frequencynews.ca/, and via the “Due North” program presented twice on weekdays on our radio signal at 88.7FM.
Collaborating with the National College Radio Association (NCRA) by sharing news and resources with other campus-community stations across the country, we feel we made an impact this academic year. We’re proud to have been a part of this local-level, information-gathering project and will definitely re-apply when the next roll-out of the program begins! This initiative was made possible by the Community Radio Fund of Canada, the only organization mandated to financially support campus and community radio stations in Canada.
Stay tuned for local news coverage on CFURadio 88.7FM in Prince George, everywhere on cfur.ca/listen-live and written content on both cfur.ca/the-newsroom and canada-info.ca/en/
