INDIANAPOLIS — WFYI 90.1 FM reporter/anchor Jill Ditmire is well known in the local arts community, and she is poised to start telling even more of its stories as the leader of the public radio station’s new full-time arts and culture desk. This new newsroom beat will expand Ditmire’s role with the station that will include hosting a new, yet-to-be named one-hour program that will debut in March, 2018.
There will be more stories during WFYI’s daily newscasts and expanded features during popular drive-time shows “Morning Edition” and “All Things Considered.” The program that kicks off next March will replace “The Art of the Matter” and will take a more journalistic approach while maintaining feature segments from other contributors, including Matthew Socey, Melissa Davis and Kyle Long.
With her new duties, Ditmire will relinquish her role as afternoon news anchor during “All Things Considered,” but will continue her popular Facebook Live segments from various places around the Indianapolis area on Thursday nights at 5:30.
