For nearly 30 years, locals have turned to Vegas PBS’s Nevada Week in Review for its lively, insightful, and sometimes provocative discussion of Nevada’s most important news stories by a panel of media experts offering diverse perspectives on issues confronting the local community.

Clark County School District, with its 352 schools in the Las Vegas area, is the fifth-largest school district in the United States. Vegas PBS’s Inside Education takes viewers into the district’s schools and classrooms to see how teachers teach and children learn. Host Dave Sheehan and reporter Desiree Duncan provide key insights into the issues that shape these schools, from national initiatives like No Child Left Behind to local interests like full-day kindergarten.

KNPB-TV in Reno produces OpenLine, a monthly call-in program series. The show features a guest panel taking phone calls and answering online blog communication on a variety of timely topics affecting the local community.

KNPR-FM’s State of Nevada is the region’s public affairs radio broadcast. News makers and experts give context to local issues while discussion and profile interviews explore the character of the region. The program airs at 9 a.m. and again at 8 p.m.
