Welcome to The Big Why, a series driven by your curiosity about Montana. We'll answer your questions, large or small, about anything under the Big Sky. This is our inaugural episode and we're answering a question that has to do with this show's name: Why is Montana known as the "Big Sky state"?
We're working to better understand the people and perspectives we bring to our news coverage so we can meet the diverse needs of all Montanans. Here you can find reports and updates on what we've been working on.
