Overview
Since it began in 1983, Frontline has been airing public-affairs documentaries that explore a wide scope of the complex human experience. Frontline's goal is to extend the impact of the documentary beyond its initial broadcast by serving as a catalyst for change.
Frontline has occupied television screens since 1983, maintaining a consistent focus on investigative reporting. Operating with a narrow scope on the complex human experience, the series separates itself from daily news cycles by dedicating months to deep dives into specific public affairs. The intent is to keep the conversation surrounding these subjects active long after the initial broadcast credits roll.
Will Lyman provides an authoritative narration that has become a defining anchor for the program over its decades of production. Rather than summarizing the headlines of the week, the series functions as a catalyst for public inquiry. It operates on the premise that a single documentary can leave a lasting mark on its subject matter, provided the reporting is thorough enough to demand a reaction from its audience.
