WQED Multimedia is a privately owned, non-profit American corporation founded in 1954 and headquartered in the United States. Employing approximately 210 people, it operates three public broadcasting stations in Pittsburgh: television station WQED (channel 13), and radio stations WQED-FM (89.3 FM) and WQEJ-FM (89.7 FM). In 2023, the organization reported revenues under $25 million.
WQED Multimedia announced layoffs affecting 19 employees, representing 35% of its full- and part-time staff, on Wednesday. The layoffs primarily impacted the Marketing, Membership, and Production departments. This action followed the elimination of federal funding for public broadcasting, resulting in an approximate $1.8 million annual funding cut for WQED Multimedia. To address this funding reduction, WQED Multimedia held a public webinar titled "State of the Station." Separately, WQED Multimedia, in collaboration with Fred Rogers Productions and PNC Grow Up Great®, will host Be My Neighbor Day in Etna Borough on September 20, 2025. The event aims to promote kindness and community engagement.
