    Local radio and television broadcasters are often the most trusted source of emergency information as they are able to continue broadcasting reliably during crises when other networks may fail. As the infrastructure of broadcasters is strong, local stations can provide critical information to their communities as the first informers even when in harm's way. FEMA has recognized broadcasters as the most reliable source of information during disasters.

    Broadcasters

    ARE First Informers

    In times of crisis, broadcasters are there. As the most trusted source of news and emergency information,
    Americans turn to their local television and radio stations to get the information they need to stay safe.

    During disaster situations, when other networks can be unreliable, local radio and TV stations are often
    the only available communications medium, demonstrating the strength of the broadcast infrastructure.

    Even Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) officials have noted that in times of emergency
    there is no more reliable source of information than local broadcasters.

    Local stations are integral to the communities they serve, and broadcasters do not hesitate to put
    themselves in harm’s way to bring critical information to their neighbors.

    We are the first informers. We are broadcasters.
