LAS VEGAS (LVPR) - Las Vegas Public Radio has ceased all noncommercial educational (NCE) broadcast operations for KIOF 90.1 FM, it's 48,000 Watt FM station. Documents on file at the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) show state broadcaster KNPR (NPR Affiliate), State of Nevada Department of Education (NDE) officials, State of Nevada Attorney General's Office (NVAGO) officials and Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) officials do not support the "Las Vegas Public Radio" brand or KIOF as a noncommercial educational (NCE) broadcaster in the marketplace under the Telecommunications Act of 1934 in SEC. 393.

(c) Of the sums appropriated pursuant to section 391 for any fiscal year, a substantial amount shall be available for the expansion and development of noncommercial radio broadcast station facilities.
Las Vegas Public Radio has been in transition to become a commercial broadcaster since December 2022 under it's Temporary Application for Provisional Commercial Use (TAPCU) project which will be made permanent under the Defund NPR Act of 2024 and Project 2025 here in Nevada to protect the federal tax payer subsidies (i.e. free rides that come at the expense of the lives of others) flowing to KNPR, KUNR and KCEP, existing CPB Radio Community Service Grantees (Radio CSG) here in Nevada through the state's scam/sham grant/sub-grant authorerterian and totaleterian power and control mechanisms to control other broadcasters like Las Vegas Public Radio and KIOF for years and choke the organization because it does not agree with it's editorial content.
Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) officials (still presently run by the former Republican National Committee Chair) were directly responsible for the wrongful death of Las Vegas Public Radio's Vice President, Mr. Andrew LaPorta (Honnorably Discharged U.S. Navy Veteran) on September 23, 2022, just 21 days after the Clark County, Nevada Administrator Robert Telles (Democrat Party) killed Review-Journal Investigative Reporter Jeff German on September 2, 2023 as investigations have shown. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) is to be removed completely from receiving federal tax payer funds under Project 2025 beginning in January 2025.
What exactly will happen with KIOF now?
It's unknown at this time based on how the Defund NPR Act of 2024 and Project 2025 will play out come January 2025 as it exposed the selective serving for many years by State of Nevada Department of Education (NDE) officials, State of Nevada Attorney General's Office (NVAGO) officials and Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) officials under the Telecommunications Act of 1934 in SEC. 393.

(c) Of the sums appropriated pursuant to section 391 for any fiscal year, a substantial amount shall be available for the expansion and development of noncommercial radio broadcast station facilities. It is also unknown if KIOF 90.1 FM itself will be waivered by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) under a new administration to also operate as a commercial broadcast station as the noncommercial educational (NCE) broadcast band from 88.1 MHz to 91.9 MHz is dismantled alongside the defunding and elimination of the federal Department of Education through the possible re-election of President Trump in November.
