Learn Moreabout PBS online sponsorship- I think in Nashville, as with anywhere, it's the people who have the resources are the ones who have the opportunity to speak more often.
And those without the resources don't.
I mean, you look at, you know, if somebody can afford a comms director, a publicist, a media specialist to send press releases, those are the people who are getting to have a larger, louder voice in the conversation.
Something I say in the newsroom sometimes, it's an MO we try to have, we're not always perfect about it, is I don't wanna just talk about communities, I wanna talk to communities.
So often the people who are under-resourced are the ones who don't have as loud a say in the conversation.
- Right.
