What’s Your KQED Origin Story? | KQED’s journalists are the cornerstone of our work. They also have something in common with you: a dedication to public media. We recently asked KQED staff members to share their “origin stories”: the experiences that brought them to a career in public media. The snippet of the comic above shows that Scott Shafer started down the road to a career in news at a young age. You can find the rest of Scott’s story, along with all of the origin story comics, at kqed.org/originstories. We’d love to have you participate too! Please share the story of how public media came into your life using this online form or on social media using the hashtag #KQEDOriginStories. We may even transform your story into a comic! | |
