南达科他州公共广播公司裁员7人, 结束“南达科他州焦点”, 并减少其他节目, South Dakota Public Broadcasting cuts 7 staff, ends 'South Dakota Focus,' and reduces other shows after losing federal funding.

在获得私人捐款和赠款后,南达科他州公共广播公司减少了计划裁员人数,从15人减至7人,因为联邦资金减少了11亿美元,使SDPB减少220万美元。 South Dakota Public Broadcasting reduced planned layoffs from 15 to seven staff members after securing private donations and grants following a $1.1 billion federal funding cut that cost SDPB $2.2 million. 本组织依靠国家资金、赠款和捐款,将裁减4名记者、2名工程师和1名营销专家,留下5个职位空缺,并将工作人员从63.5名专职同等人员减至51.5名。 The organization, which relies on state funds, grants, and donations, will cut four journalists, two engineers, and one marketing specialist, leaving five positions unfilled and reducing staff from 63.5 to 51.5 full-time equivalents. 结果,节目"南达科他焦点"将结束,"达科他生活"将减少产量,广播节目"在当下"将缩短至15分钟,并集成到"早晨版",通过播客提供额外内容. As a result, the show “South Dakota Focus” will end, “Dakota Life” will reduce output, and the radio program “In The Moment” will be shortened to 15 minutes and integrated into “Morning Edition,” with extra content available via podcast. SDPB将继续进行现场立法、高中体育、艺术节目制作和紧急通信,同时计划随着现有补助金的到期,对教育内容进行战略性转变。 SDPB will continue live legislative coverage, high school sports, arts programming, and emergency communications, while planning a strategic shift for educational content as current grants expire.
