'''WSRE''' is the PBS member station for the Northwest Florida and South Alabama viewing area. The station has been broadcasting since [[1967]].
The station has recently gone under very significant growth, with the dedication of the new [[Jean & and Paul Amos Performance Studio]], and numerous equipment and technical upgrades.
The station's transmitter and production and development facilities are located at the [[Kugelman Center for Telecommunications ]] on [[Pensacola Junior State College]]'s main campus.
==Production Facilities==
WSRE is home to three fully equipped television studios. 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, of which half is retractable to allow for more soundstage floor 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[[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 [[Wikipedia:Scarborough Country is |Scarborough Country]] used to be frequently produced (sometimes for weeks or maybe a month or two at a time) in Studio C when [[Joe Scarborough]] is was home in Pensacola.
