Summary
WisconsinEye, or WisEye for short, is the state’s first and only independent state Capitol broadcast network. Their small team has been providing live, unedited coverage of political proceedings since 2007 – from legislative hearings, to press conferences, to oral arguments in the state Supreme Court. But the network is running low on funds and in danger of shutting down this summer. Co-founder Jon Henkes joined our News Producer Faye Parks to explain how state lawmakers and private donors can help them stay afloat. Image courtesy: Chali Pittman / WORT News.
