The largest being WSRE's Studio A, otherwise known as the Jean and Paul Amos Performance Studio. Studio A is an 18,000 sq. foot fully featured television soundstage offering 500 seats of stadium seating, which is retractable to allow for more soundstage space. Studio B also offers all of the technical capability of Studio A, with more moderate floor space designed for live or pre-recorded programming without a live audience. Most of the station's local programming is produced in Studio B, including Open Forum, Connecting the Community, Aware, PJC Today, Legislative Review and formerly Flavors of the Coast. Studio C is a much smaller studio and is almost exclusively used for television programs and segments designed for satellite uplinks. MSNBC's Scarborough Country is frequently produced (sometimes for weeks or maybe a month or two at a time) in Studio C when [[Joe Scarborough]] is home in Pensacola. |
