About Prairie Public
Prairie Public is the public radio network of North Dakota and northwestern Minnesota, providing NPR news programming, classical music, and local public affairs content to one of America's most geographically and culturally distinctive regions. As North Dakota's public broadcasting service, Prairie Public carries National Public Radio's flagship news programs — Morning Edition, All Things Considered, and Fresh Air — alongside locally produced content that addresses the unique issues facing the Northern Plains states. The network broadcasts a classical music format during much of the day, serving listeners who depend on public radio for access to classical music in a region where such programming is otherwise scarce. Prairie Public's commitment to public service broadcasting serves the farmers, ranchers, educators, Native American communities, and urban residents of North Dakota with substantive journalism and cultural programming that reflects the rich, complex character of life on the Northern Plains.
