Like many of our neighbors, the WQED station has lost power. As a result, our FM & TV livestreams are down. Our over-the-air television broadcast is NOT affected. Please bear with us as we deal with this outage and stay safe through these storms!

Recently, #FreedomHouseEMT’s story is being told, in two documentaries (First Responders @wqed), a book (American Sirens by Kevin Hazzard @goes_by_hazzard) and by the nine living survivors! Some of them are alive and sharing stories! The oldest is in his 90s! #NationalEMTWeek
