The funding initiative awarded a total of $20 million to 205 news outlets.
The June through August 2024 period was, at best, sluggish for station fundraising across several key performance indicators compared to the same period in 2023.
Rascoe succeeds Lulu Garcia-Navarro, who left NPR last fall for the New York Times.
Bolt has worked as the station’s director of news and public affairs since 1995.
NPR began rotating hosts and other staffers from its newsmagazines and international desk through Ukraine in January.
“It’s extraordinarily complex, but we’re finally getting there,” said Michael Richards, board president.
Stations are using TikTok to connect with local audiences and expand their reach to younger viewers.
Brian Robison has worked at Denali Brewing Co. for the last decade.
The end of an employee council focused on DEI issues has lessened friction within the station. But former members say areas such as pay transparency haven’t been addressed.
“We’re trying to get inside the minds of most Americans in terms of how they now view the systems that return a democratically elected government.”
Stations that signed on to the Public Media for All campaign have made progress in DEI work, but not without tackling internal challenges.
