Arizona PBS pledges to protect ‘Arizona Horizon’ despite Trump’s threats to funding

By Reagan Priest | Arizona Capitol Times

Key Points:
  • Arizona PBS could lose funding due to an executive order from President Donald Trump
  • PBS says “Arizona Horizon” will not be threatened by potential funding cuts
  • Supporters say losing “Horizon” would be detrimental to elected officials and voters

Arizona PBS is vowing to protect and strengthen its nightly news show amid federal funding cuts ordered by President Donald Trump. 

“Arizona Horizon” is a go-to stop for any politician, candidate or consultant looking to spread their message to the public. But its host, Arizona PBS, could be in jeopardy after Trump signed an executive order on May 1 instructing the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to cease funding to PBS and NPR. 

Scott Woefel, the station’s general manager, said viewers shouldn’t expect any immediate change to “Horizon” while PBS explores legal options and outside fundraising sources to backfill federal funding, which accounts for about 13% of AZPBS’ budget.
