NWIN on cable TV

CoLours TV launches NorthWest Indian NewsCoLours TV will launch NorthWest Indian News, a half hour weekly news program beginning Sunday, November 22, at 11am EST. Viewers can watch CoLours TV on the Dish Network channels 9407/9396, select cable systems and online at www.colourstv.org.

Launched in 2003, NWIN gives Native Americans a voice in mainstream media. Given the opportunity to tell their stories to the world, NWIN reporters initiate conversations, examine issues ‘in depth’ and celebrate the successes among tribes, friends and neighbors. As a result, the very first NWIN program produced in March of 2003 is still being used as curriculum in public schools across the country.
