MISSION

COMMUNITY

It would be hard to “eclipse” the activities of FY18 at WSIU. Years of planning culminated in our live coverage at the crossroads of the Great American Eclipse. WSIU was front and center with production support for the NASA Solar Eclipse Megacast seen live around the world. In addition to our production unit’s activities, our outreach and educational department provided children and families with numerous STEM learning opportunities during Southern Illinois University’s two-day solar eclipse event held on the SIU Carbondale campus. Of course, we documented the experience and are already considering ideas for coverage in April of 2024 when Carbondale will once again sit at the crossroads of the next eclipse to sweep across the US. Once the eclipse was behind us, we turned to an exciting new opportunity in the PBS Online Film Festival. WSIU was proud to become a producing partner for the event with our submission from local SIU student filmmaker Kelechi Agwuncha whose film was selected as one of 25 featured in the festival. WSIU will return as a producing partner for the 2019 festival as well. In celebration of the addition of the program to WSIU’s children’s programming line-up, we hosted a Pinkalicious & Peterrific-themed Family Day event in April. Families had the opportunity to participate in a variety of art, music, and creative activities in what remains one of WSIU’s sig-nature events and one of the region’s largest, free public events focusing on children’s education. WSIU kicked off its participation in the Illinois Newsroom Statewide Journalism Collaborative with the hiring of a full-time reporter to focus on health and environmental issues. Working with other NPR and PBS stations in Illinois, WSIU is now a partner in an effort to enhance reporting on specific areas of concern to the citizens of Illinois. Generous local donors helped match the CPB funded project. As FY18 came to a close, we approached completion on the collaboration project that ultimately led to WSIU becoming the public television provider for 5 million people in Illinois via five transmitters, serving viewers across 67 counties. Stay tuned for more on that in next year’s report.

LOCAL PROGRAMMING TELEVISION & RADIO WSIU’s suite of locally produed content includes Expressions (local artist profiles), Little Egypt Live (local musician profile), WSIU InFocus (regional history and interests), and Illinois Lawmakers (coverage of the Illinois General Assembly), as well as several student-led productions: River Region Evening Edition, Scholastic Hi-Q, Saluki SportsView, and alt.news 26:46. As WSIU’s flagship programs WSIU In Focus, Little Egypt Live, and Expressions remained on hiatus this fiscal year, we saw the opportunity to expand on our existing university partnerships to create a new public affairs series, On Topic. The weekly three-minute news and public affairs feature premiered on WSIU TV in 2017 and was scheduled as a local feature airing after the Weekend NewsHour. Utilizing a ‘digital first’ model, episodes were published directly to our website and social media before airing on our HD and World channels. In the fall of 2017, WSIU was pleased to add Pinkalicious & Peterrific to our PBS KIDS daytime line-up. Many community outreach activities were planned around the program launch including our annual Family Day event at Cedarhurst Center for the Arts in Mt. Vernon, IL.

PUBLIC AFFAIRS PROGRAMMING WSIU's commitment to leadership in news and public affairs programming continues with our in-depth coverage of the Illinois General Assembly’s legislative session via our Illinois Lawmakers series, the Illinois 12th Congressional District Candidates Debate, as well as the governor’s State of the State and Budget Addresses. Founded in 1986, Illinois Lawmakers is television’s longest running series providing coverage of the Illinois General Assembly. The program provides in-depth coverage and analysis by veteran Statehouse reporters, news features, and interviews with leading lawmakers from both sides of the aisle. Capitolfax.com publisher Rich Miller and WTTW’s Chicago Tonight correspondent Amanda Vinicky are regular contributors to the series, as are legislative leaders, lawmakers, and policy analysts. Illinois Lawmakers is a joint production of WSIU TV Carbondale, WTVP TV Peoria, and Illinois Public Media (WILL) Urbana-Champaign. During FY18, WSIU TV expanded partnerships with the Belleville-News Democrat, The Southern Illinoisan, and Lindenwood University for coverage of the Illinois 12th Congressional District Candidates Debates in Carbondale and Belleville, IL. WSIU also collaborated with regional public media for special episodes of Illinois Lawmakers focused the impact of Illinois’ two-year budget crisis on Illinois families, service agencies, and the surrounding region. During FY18, WSIU Radio produced 8,736 total hours of radio programming (both local and national) including 567 hours of local programming, 355 hours of news and public affairs, and 212 hours of local music and arts programs.

Our thanks to WSIU for airing so many wonderful and accurate documentaries this Native American History Month Mystic Voices, Across The Creek, Our Fires Still Burn, and Under The Husk to name a few.

The skills I developed at WSIU, the leadership abilities nurtured by WSIU staff, and the professionalism demanded of me, positioned me on a path to success. Jordan Taylor

Former WSIU Student Executive Producer for River Region Evening Edition

Since graduating from SIU, I’ve been blessed with many opportunities and experiences. I had the opportunity to work with the Chicago Cubs production team as a camera operator during the 2018 season. I am also a freelance camera operator for Program Productions Inc., a production company based out of Chicago, IL. Additionally, I serve as one of two production managers for New Life Covenant Southeast where I ensure each broadcast is streamed to a global audience. Working for WSIU taught me the foundational skills required for live news broadcasting. I learned how to produce a newscast from beginning to end. Not only did I learn how things worked behind the scenes, learning to use industry-standard tools and equipment, but I also had the opportunity to develop as on-air talent, serving as a news anchor and weather reporter.

SOUTHERN ILLINOIS RADIO INFORMATION SERVICE SIRIS helps people who are disabled and blind stay connected to the world around them. Like everyone else in the world, it is so important for us to know what’s going on in our own communities. Suzanne Gorrell SIRIS Subscriber

In perhaps the first test of President Donald Trump’s political popularity, WSIU was a part of nationwide coverage of the 2018 Primary Election. Local, state, and federal candidates were profiled, and issues were explored in an effort to better inform voters before they headed to the polls. Popular Republicans faced challenges from more conservative candidates, while Democrats hoped to capitalize on any dissatisfied voters who hoped for a change. Races covered included Illinois’ 12th Congressional District, which has become a hotly contested seat for both Democrats, Republicans, and the Green Party. Illinois’ 15th Congressional District was also profiled. Perhaps most notable in WSIU’s Primary 2018 Coverage was another collaboration with The Southern Illinoisan newspaper. Both entities’ newsrooms came together to provide expanded coverage of candidates, their issues, and voters’ opinions heading into the March 21st vote.

The Southern Illinois Radio Information Service (SIRIS) is a reading and information service for individuals who are blind, visually-impaired, and print-disabled. The National Federation for the Blind estimates there are about 3,200 visually-impaired individuals in our service area and each year WSIU serves this population via the SIRIS Service. During FY18, WSIU provided more than 8,736 total hours of SIRIS programming and 1,820 hours of local programming which included daily readings of news articles, grocery store ads, community calendars, obituaries, original descriptive arts, and nature-related content. SIRIS reaches approximately 1,400 community members via our over-the-air radio service accessed from a special closed-circuit radio or via a password-protected web stream. WSIU surveys reading service users annually and organizes engagement activities to evaluate existing services and prospective new programming. WSIU works with local social service agencies and organizations to connect the reading service with individuals in need.

ILLINOIS BICENTENNIAL Highlighting our region's role in building a vibrant and diverse state. Illinois became the 21st state in the union in 1818. To commemorate the event, WSIU provided coverage of how southern Illinois played a part in creating the state as it is today.

Southern Illinois University President Randy Dunn was one of the state’s Bicentennial Co-Chairs. Dunn provided not just context in terms of what the state was doing to celebrate its birthday, but also information on local people, places, and events that were a large part of the state’s history. WSIU’s coverage included visits to Kaskaskia, the home of Illinois’ first state capitol, along with Vandalia, which served as the state’s second seat of government. But beyond the political history, WSIU also explored natural resources critical to Illinois’ development, including Rend Lake, the Shawnee National Forest, and Giant City State Park. Finally, notable Illinoisans including General John A. Logan and others were featured in a series of special features airing on WSIU Radio.

With interviews featuring The Planetary Society’s Mat Kaplan, Adler Planetarium’s Michelle Nichols, WSIU and its partners helped spread the word about southern Illinois’ unique perspective for the eclipse. In August 2017, eclipse watchers had the opportunity to participate in a live taping of Planetary Radio Live with Mat Kaplan and have their astronomy questions addressed by experts in the space and science communities. In addition to local coverage, WSIU was featured on NPR’s Here & Now, as well as Weekend Edition. On the day of the eclipse, WSIU was a large part of the events. From an interactive exhibit in the Eclipse Expo, to providing crew and support for NASA Edge’s international coverage, to helping host the events inside and outside SIU’s Saluki Stadium, WSIU was highly visible – even when the sun was not!

SIRIS is funded in part by WSIU Public Radio, Southern Illinois University Carbondale, the United Way of Southern Illinois, the Illinois State Library, and from donations from supporters throughout the region.

Following the eclipse, WSIU focused on what it meant for the region. From economic development to historical perspective, Carbondale and its surrounding areas played a pivotal role in bringing the eclipse to the world – and will do the same again in 2024!

COMMUNITY FILM SCREENINGS

WHEN

Fostering community dialogue on cultural, social, and environmental issues.

WHERE

WSIU deepened our station’s reputation and our audience’s recognition of public media by sustaining our multicultural community film screening activities which continue to attract and sustain diverse audiences. Since 2012, WSIU has partnered with the Carbondale Public Library and other community organizations to host film screenings and discussions to encourage community dialogue on cultural, social, and environmental issues impacting our viewers and listeners.

Fall 2017 - Spring 2018

Carbondale, IL Murphysboro, IL

INDIE LENS POP UP PARTNERS Carbondale Public Library African American Museum of Southern Illinois Southern Illinois Immigrants’ Rights Project SIU School of Law Rendleman Orchards SIU Department of Economics

RESULTS

The film screenings were widely attended over the course of the year by a diverse group of participants who discussed the films’ themes and provided input about how local residents could address many of these issues in their own communities. 70% of participants increased their awareness of topics depicted in the films and some guests reported an interest in reaching out to elected officials to make their views known. Due to the number of screenings scheduled during Black History Month, WSIU saw a 25% increase in AfricanAmerican and multi-racial participants.

I plan to ask my social studies teacher if Dolores Huerta is in our curriculum.

In 2018, under the Indie Lens Pop-Up brand, WSIU held screenings for several Independent Lens/ITVS films which included: Chasing Trane (October 2017), I Am Not Your Negro (November 2017), Tell Them We Are Rising (February 2018), Delores (March 2018), and Look & See: Wendell Berry's Kentucky (April 2018). In total, WSIU and our partners hosted seven Indie Lens Pop-Up screening events which engaged a total of 279 individuals, 101 of whom returned event surveys. Look & See: Wendell Berry's Kentucky, struck a particular chord with our audience due to its regional affiliation with southern Illinois and Kentucky. The film presented a portrait of the changing landscapes and shifting values of rural America as seen through the mind’s eye of writer, farmer, and activist Wendell Berry, in his native Henry County, Kentucky, which is located just outside our service area. The loss of the rural American lifestyle, the de-investment in small town America, and the loss of natural spaces are issues of great importance to our region. With many of the screening windows slated for spring 2018, WSIU worked with the African American Museum of Southern Illinois to hold an additional screening of Tell Them We Are Rising in honor of Black History Month. As immigration and the economy were key issues discussed during the 2016 election, WSIU and the Southern Illinois Immigrants’ Rights Project partnered for two screenings of Homeland: Immigration in America. The episode titled ‘Jobs’ was screened at The Varsity Center in Carbondale, IL in August 2018 while a second episode, ‘Enforcement,’ was screened at The Liberty Theater in Murphysboro, IL in October 2018.

Produced by Nine Network in St. Louis and narrated by Ray Suarez, senior correspondent for PBS NewsHour, Homeland: Immigration in America explored the politics and people on all sides of immigration debate. The episode 'Jobs' explored the spectrum of immigrant jobs and the complex maze of rules, regulations, caps, and quotas challenging the country at many levels, while 'Enforcement' tackled the difficultly small towns and municipalities face as they struggle to enforce inconsistent immigration policies. Southern Illinois is home to a thriving farming industry that is directly tied to the migrant community and is greatly impacted by any changes in immigration legislation. The region is also home to several universities and colleges who count DACA students among their student body, making immigration relevant to higher education and the southern Illinois economy at large.

The screening helped me better understand current law and the history/ procedures of immigration. - Film Screening Participant

VICTORIA FILM SCREENING Season Two Premiere

In January 2018, WSIU celebrated the premiere of Victoria, Season 2 on MASTERPIECE with a screening of the first hour of episode one. Following in the footsteps of screening events for other MASTERPIECE programming including Sherlock, Downton Abbey, and the first season of Victoria, southern Illinois drama fans turned out in full force for the screening events held at The Varsity Center in Carbondale, IL and Cedarhurst Center for the Arts in Mt. Vernon, IL. Prior to the screening, guests enjoyed refreshments and took photos at our “royal selfie station” featuring life-sized representations of Victoria, Albert, and Lord Melborne (who remains a fan favorite in southern Illinois even though he no longer appears on the program). Guests also had the opportunity to enter to win MASTERPIECE-branded items as door prizes. After the screening event, the Victoria life-size character artwork traveled around the region to visit with program sponsor Southern Illinois Healthcare and other community partner locations to create additional buzz about season two broadcast on WSIU TV.
