WisconsinEye, or WisEye for short, is the state’s first and only independent state Capitol broadcast network.

Their small team has been providing live, unedited coverage of political proceedings since 2007 – from legislative hearings, to press conferences, to oral arguments in the state Supreme Court. Their archive, more than 14,000 hours of recordings, are available for free on their website.

WisEye runs on private contributions, but like many other nonprofit organizations these days, they’re experiencing funding challenges.

Co-founder Jon Henkes joined our News Producer Faye Parks to explain what could be lost if they can’t reach their fundraising goal.
