Revised and approved February 22, 2020 Introduction Nebraska Public Media regularly presents political news coverage, candidate debates and forums as part of our mission “to educate, challenge, and inspire Nebraska.” The criteria included here help guide our program producers in fulfilling that goal in a manner that best serves the citizens of Nebraska and meets the requirements of state and federal law. Organization and production of our political news coverage and our special election year programming lies with our news team which creates content distributed via radio, television and online. We recognize that our overarching goal must be to help citizens be better informed, so they may choose to be involved in their government, and the political process.
