WOSU's My Source Campaign

To increase recognition of public broadcasting as a valuable resource that informs, enlightens and enriches public life, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting developed the My Source initiative. Through My Source, public broadcasting supporters are able to tell their own unique and personal stories about how public broadcasting serves as a source for information, entertainment and empowerment. Viewers, listeners, users and supporters will be able to share their stories. Collectively, these stories illustrate the many ways in which public broadcasting contributes to a civil, diverse and participatory society. Tell us what you love about WOSU and why you rely on WOSU for trusted local and national news and public affairs.
