In 2018, PRI merged with Public Radio Exchange (PRX) to create a new force in public media. A Champion of Global Stories: - Launched and co-produced PRI’s The World®, the first daily news program offering a global perspective to American audiences. - Provided a platform for diverse voices and cultural experiences, enriching the public radio landscape. - Partnered with international broadcasters like the BBC World Service, fostering global understanding. Award-Winning Excellence: - Earned prestigious awards like the DuPont-Columbia Award and Peabody Awards for its high-quality journalism. - Produced a wide range of programs recognized for innovation, including Studio 360®, a show exploring pop culture and the arts. - Reached a significant audience, with over 8 million listeners tuning in weekly at its peak. While PRI no longer operates as a separate entity, its legacy lives on through the enduring impact of its programs and its commitment to exceptional public radio.
