MADISON, WI (WTAQ-WRN) — A Wisconsin public access channel will be getting a state grant to continue operation.
The legislature’s Joint Finance Committee voted on Thursday to offer $10 million in grants to Wisconsin EYE. The channel broadcasts legislative sessions, public hearings, and other notable state interest programs.
WisEye would have to match each dollar it requests from the grant in its own fundraising, and drop its paid access archive.
WisEye currently relies mostly on private fundraising.
