Who we are.

Pittsburgh Public Media was formed by employees of WDUQ in January 2010 for the purpose of purchasing the station. After many months of negotiations, our higher bid for the station was not accepted and we were left to regroup.

Our partner group, PubMusic, has kept the spirit alive with The Pittsburgh Jazz Channel, a highly successful internet channel designed to provide Jazz programming to the area. Tony Mowod and other staffers including Scott Hanley, Chuck Leavens, John Lasanich and Bill Hillgrove are on air there providing the music you enjoyed for so many years.

Through the real partnerships we maintained over the years, Pittsburgh Public Media is now ready to come back on the airwaves and grow to an even greater regional asset.
