No. While the FCC states public affairs programming should be “responsive to the needs and problems of its local community of license,” it is not a requirement that the programming be locally produced or address only issues specifically related to the local community. In fact, many local radio stations don't have the resources to constantly produce their own public affairs programming, document it properly, and upload it into their PIF. They turn to syndicated or nationally produced programming and PSAs, often provided free of charge, to help them comply and broadcast in the public interest.
