A new chapter ahead
WDET’s Detroit Evening Report is taking a hiatus as we work to reimagine the program and develop a new, expanded offering that better serves our community. Our commitment to amplifying diverse voices, reflecting the experiences of communities of color, and delivering trusted, relevant local journalism remains as strong as ever. We’re excited about what’s ahead and look forward to sharing more about this next chapter in the coming months. Stay tuned!
