Indiana Public Broadcasting Stations is eliminating its statewide team of editors and reporters due to the defunding of the organization by the Indiana General Assembly in the budget.
Executive director Mark Newman called it an incredibly difficult decision and says individual stations will have to make their own tough choices to address the funding shortfalls.
IPBS has 17 public television and radio stations formed in 1979, and are partners on public safety projects, civic affairs programming and education initiatives.
Their entire 3.6 million dollars in funding from the state was eliminated in April.
