Reclaim the Media

Web       http://www.reclaimthemedia.org/

Envisions an authentic, just democracy characterized by media systems that inform and empower citizens, reflect our diverse cultures, and secure communications rights for all. Works to change media policy at the local and federal level, so that the structure of our media favors the public interest, rather than a powerful few. Teaches media literacy education because citizens need to understand how news can be shaped by journalistic habits and by powerful commercial and political interests. Supports community media because we cannot entrust our history, our culture and our democracy to the consolidated media empires alone.
