Today’s Coverage Shows WHAV’s Unique Local Model is the Future; Will You Help?
Take a look at today’s WHAV local news headlines today and you’ll see there’s no question WHAV provides more local news, more news that really matters and more often.
|
This extensive coverage is all the more remarkable when others are cutting back. While the nonprofit news model appears to be the winning economic formula for the future, it is not without setbacks. Recently, both of Boston’s public radio outlets and others across the country are facing huge deficits, cuts and layoffs.
|
As Greater Haverhill’s only public radio station and nonprofit local news service, WHAV is different, uniquely centering on local news and staying away from the distracting, divisive and questionable national news angles available elsewhere.
