WRKF
WRKF Baton Rouge Public Radio was founded in 1980 by community
members to inform and entertain area residents. It provided NPR news,
cultural programming, and local news reporting.
Now, in addition to broadcasting news coverage, WRKF produces podcasts
and online news. The station increased its capacity for local news reporting
by partnering with WWNO public radio in the neighboring city of New
Orleans in 2017. The combined newsroom now has a ten-person news
team.
