MILWAUKEE (WTAQ) – A two-year media campaign begins Tuesday in Milwaukee to humanize the city’s problem with gun violence.
A production firm has put together stories to be featured on radio and the Internet.
Organizers say they want to discourage potential shooters, by more graphically demonstrating how gun crimes affect the victims. The 5 to 7 minute stories will be broadcast weekly on two Milwaukee radio stations.
The Greater Milwaukee Foundation and the Helen Bader Foundation provided funding for the stories.
Brad Lichtenstein of 371 Productions tells WISN-TV that folks can see and hear both shooters and victims, so they can better understand how gun crimes happen.
