Newsmakers

  New Mexico's Public Media Stations are proud to host the 2018 Candidate Conversation Series. Host of KNME-TV'S New Mexico in Focus, Gene Grant, sits down with the two major party candidates for Governor: Democrat Michelle Lujan Grisham and Republican Steve Pearce.

Acclaimed author Luis Alberto Urrea visited the KRWG-TV studios during his March visit for NMSU's "Big Read" project.  The NMSU Big Read committee chose Urrea's “Into the Beautiful North" for the community reading project.  Urrea answered questions from NMSU students, faculty, and staff during the taping of a special one-hour edition of KRWG-TV's Newsmakers.  

Fred Martino hosts this forum with New Mexico State University economists Dr. Chris Erickson and Dr. Jim Peach. They discuss national, regional, and local economic conditions. We'll also visit Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, to hear ideas for boosting the economy from a diverse group of citizens.

Join Fred Martino with a great panel discussing ways to boost civic engagement in our region. Guests include Dona Ana County Clerk Scott Krahling, Las Cruces City Councilor Gabe Vasquez, League of Women Voters of Greater Las Cruces President Kim Sorensen, and NM Cafe community organizer Allex Luna.
