Preferred term

community media and the third sector  

Definition(s)

  • Across every region of the globe, the early days of community broadcasting were full of protest, rebellion, and technical wizardry: mobile broadcasters operating illegally from the back of vans (United States), students barricading themselves in radio studios to avoid closure (Australia), video activists inserting their own productions into cable programming (Italy), and singing the news on air when it was against the King's command to announce it (Nepal). In some countries, community broadcasting has resulted in more sinister outcomes: military attacks, loss of life, and imprisonment (Bolivia and Thailand, for example).
