WUNC / NPR affiliates
U.S. center-left (mainstream public media)
WUNC is a non-profit public radio service licensed to UNC-Chapel Hill and is an NPR member station. Like NPR, it is generally seen as mainstream, center-left-leaning in its audience and in some critics' view of its coverage, although it presents its news as straight reporting. It reports critically on administration actions affecting its own funding and on NC and national policy, and it also carries wire-style and balanced news coverage, so its overall posture is mixed rather than uniformly critical.
Owned byWUNC's broadcast licenses are held by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, a public university. It is a non-profit public radio service, and its sister stations WRQM (Rocky Mount) and WUND (Manteo) are part of the same service. WUNC is a member station of NPR, which is an independent non-profit. NPR does not own its member stations. Each member station is separately owned by a university, a community group or another licensee.
