WBUR Mission Statement

WBUR's mission Is to serve you with thoughtful content to inform, challenge and enrich the human experience.

In an increasingly partisan and divisive media landscape, WBUR offers deep and insightful public conversation on issues of local, national and global importance. Our not-for-profit model, based on audience and community support, helps us to sustain independent journalism that fuels our democracy.

At a time of financial and existential uncertainty for many news organizations, WBUR is doubling down on the truth-deciphering what is happening in the world, and why, and sharing those discoveries with our audiences.
