Locally produced shows provide a forum for Southcentral Alaska s unique voice, augmenting our national and international programming. From public and civic affairs, to Alaska lifestyle and documentaries, KAKM TV and KSKA FM help us as a community to define ourselves and our values in a way that no commercial station can. Public broadcasting is a community treasure, the only source of telecommunications motivated by public service. That s why your membership makes a difference. We d like to welcome you as a new member to KAKM and KSKA, and we think you ll agree we re television and radio worth paying for, but you may have a few questions.
Contributions also support station operations and technical needs.
KAKM and KSKA rely on the generosity of its members and local program sponsors. KAKM pays yearly dues to the Public Broadcasting System, and KSKA pays dues to NPR in order to air the programming. A. Quality versus quantity. Most members support public broadcasting because we are a steady source of quality, intelligent and noncommercial television and radio. The APTI Board of Directors and the Citizens Advisory Committee advise KAKM on a variety of issues, from programming to development.
